In Baku today it is as if there are five @DavidLammy clones. He is everywhere at COP & making a huge & hugely positive impression.
I can’t exaggerate how great it is to have such a senior figure drag the focus away from the technocratic one-dimensional focus on carbon counting towards championing the actual natural world we all depend on and without which we haven’t a hope of stabilising the climate.
It is wonderful to see & so good to have the UK back & leading on this, the most important cause of all 👏🌎👏
It is in Britain’s national self interest to tackle the climate crisis.
It is the only way to keep our country safe.
That is why this Government is showing international leadership at COP29.

Today’s @thetimes column is about the mistakes I and others on the left made when Trump won in 2016, and how they led to his win again eight years later
I’m a rare Democrat who admits the loss is our fault

Morning
I thrown some words at page about the recent US election - a bit of a rambling piece that takes in Beyonce, Springsteen and Oliver Anthony
Everyone else has commented, so why not me - hopefully it isn’t simply me repeating what others have said

Why can’t Britain build anything anymore?
The news this week of the £100m ‘bat tunnel’ gave us some clues.
Here’s the story of this tunnel, which has been 12 years in the making, and some thoughts on what it tells us
Please read this. It's literally been 8 years in the writing.

On Remembrance Day, London honours those who’ve given their lives for our city and country.
City Hall was lit in red this weekend to commemorate the bravery and dedication of the men and women of our armed services. #ArmisticeDay
