Yorkshireman. UK based. Classic cars, culture, politics and Bowie get me giddy. Lover of scotch eggs, strong tea, scotch, but not strong eggs. Former Consigliere, among many other things.
#TurnerPrize - Amazing finalists hosted in my home city of #Bradford at the wonderful Cartwright Hall. Congratulations to the winner, Nnena Kalu. She become the first artist with a learning disability to wine the prize. I visited the exhibition - all four finalists presented brilliant work.

Incredible that the #TurnerPrize has come to my home city of #Bradford. Amazing displays of art at Cartwright Hall. If you can, do visit. On until February.

I will be voting for #LucyPowell as deputy leader of The @teamlabouruk.bsky.social Party.

I believe she is best placed to be an effective link between the membership and Labour in Parliament.

My best wishes to Bridget Phillipson who is a formidable operator and a key Cabinet minister.

Not particularly a fan of the royal circus, but Katharine Worsley was always my favourite non-royal, royal. A Yorkshirewoman, who stepped back from royal duties many years ago, and set about teaching music in Hull and London, as plain Katharine Kent.

#Reform Ltd is not your friend. #Farage is not working in the best interests of his Clacton constituency or the UK. In reality, he’s a chancer, a grifter, and deeply unpatriotic.

The 47th President of the United States has enjoyed attending the opening of a concentration camp in the USA. America is lost.

Farewell to the music genius, #BrianWilson. The soundtrack to summers for decades for millions, but for me, his ‘Smile’ album was simply superb.

#Trump, famously, doesn’t like steep stairs or slopes. Wonder how he’ll navigate this steep decline. ?

Not quite what I had planned today, but thank you Northern Power Grid for sorting stuff quickly.
