We were just denied entry to @Eurovision with the EU 🇪🇺 flag. We were told by security it’s “political” and “not allowed”. How could the @EBU_HQ ban the EU flag at Europe’s biggest event? #Eurovision
Hello @Usborne. I was wondering if you could clear up a debate within our family. In the "That's Not My..." series, do all the confirmed creatures (and items) belong to the reader, or do they in fact belong to the ubiquitous mouse? Love to get this resolved before my 7 mo asks...
@vonderleyen@CharlesMichel@MittRomney@JeanneShaheen@ChrisCoons Genuinely thought the EU stood for human rights for all but it's clear that doesn't apply to wretched & desperate civilians in Gaza, targeted by Israeli missiles. Churches, schools, hospitals... Feel like I'm going mad when i hear "international law must be followed" & it's not
@Keir_Starmer Israel are confident they are going to get away with this because western leaders do not hold them accountable for their actions. I guess in that way, you really are getting ready to lead.
@bbctms I'm waddling round Cardiff's parks on the date my first baby is due to arrive. I'm encouraging oxytocin from all directions. A fine win from England would be a very welcome addition!
A new initiative is offering aspiring photographers based in Wales professional development and the chance to exhibit their work https://t.co/Y5f4t71Yks
@sainsburys Hi @sainsburys, since Colchester Ave is not a convenience store but instead a large supermarket, could you tell me if it's participating in this scheme?
@goggle_man @DeaconThurston Not wearing a helmet is only a risk to oneself (and even that's more debateable than you'd think). Using a phone when in control of a car puts other people in danger. The difference is crystal clear.
Appointing Suella Braverman as Home secretary just days after she was sacked for a security breach doesn’t smack of integrity, competence, professionalism or sensible politics. It’s just cynical manoeuvring. This PM’s no better than the last two.
There was a distinct & presumably deliberate sense in Sunak's speech that he recognised some of the horrors of the last two administrations and was determined to avoid them. Instead, he's reappointed them
At noon Rishi Sunak promised “integrity, professionalism & accountability”
At 5pm he made Suella Braverman Home Secretary, 1wk after she resigned for Ministerial Code breach/security lapse
He put party before country. Security is too important for this irresponsible Tory chaos
Just bumped into Suella Braverman who said to me “traitors like you are why we are in this mess.”
She didn’t like it when I asked her to put that into an email.
"[...] said Britain’s political “disgrace” was “the culmination of six woeful years sparked by the vote for Brexit, which hastened the decline of a major power while thrusting dunces and charlatans into command”." Yep
Britain (like the US) rarely cares what the world says about it. But the current mess is changing that, with articles like the below. It’s part of a humbling, I suspect: “People can see us; what must they think?!” @JournoKiwi
