Controversy as I don’t hate the new proposed GBR brand and livery.

I think it needs some tweaks (don’t think it works on the intermediate vehicles) but it’s not bad & will no doubt evolve over time and improve.

Happy #GBRDay everyone…

#Reform can winge all they like about Starmer putting the boot in, but I'd suggest that platforming a racist, pandering to Robinson's crew, and promoting a policy that is so easily labelled divisive, was really an open goal Sir Keir couldn't miss.

Things they don't tell you when you hit your sixties. Hayfever strikes, putting on socks required a herculean effort, and you start drinking IPA. What is going on.

A good Sunday walk with birdsong and @quietriotpod.bsky.social - making sense of the situation. John Curtis nailed it too... Labour need to start governing like Architects, with a vision for the house they are trying to build, rather than handymen & plumbers fixing the faults.

There are certain words that are overused and too easily applied to people that don’t warrant their definition, but Clem Burke will always live in the place reserved for a different kind of Angel. He is a real Icon…
He is a true Star…Goodnight Godbless Clem…Xxx❤️

Children growing up in our country deserve the best start in life, nothing less.

We're investing in early years education by making childcare accessible and affordable for families.

Great to be in Newquay today with Darren Jones MP and local MP Noah Law

Important for me to speak in the House of Commons debate on Church of England safeguarding, led by my colleague Luke Myer.

Independent safeguarding is of paramount importance. Survivors of abuse had to relive it over & over again - an establishment where people should feel safest.
