Catching up on #newsnight - such a shame that Dia Chakravarty has chosen to take a job at the Daily Telegraph. I so miss the days when she was fighting tirelessly for my interests as an ordinary taxpayer.

Always good to have Steve Baker, a man who did so much to deliver the 4%+ structural reduction in GDP since Brexit, pontificating about how we don't have enough money to deliver what people actually want #newsnight

Slightly surprised to find myself agreeing with Gove on one point this morning #r4today BBC’s abandonment of high culture, on television at least, is utterly tragic and in no way helps it to build the case for its future

How is Glasman's vision for what a Labour Govt should be different from any other right of centre party? #newsnight

Hi Lisa Nandy! I’m a BAFTA winner from a small town. Instead of asinine questions like this, why not tell us how we can continue to make a living in the eviscerated creative sector over which you notionally preside?

Fantastic evening @thetungauditorium.bsky.social yesterday with Dame Imogen Cooper, Henning Kraggerud and Adrian Brendel playing Schubert. Music and performances to help you leave the troubles of the everyday behind for a short while. Thanks to all three for a wonderful concert
