This week is Marilyn Monroe week, with a new exhibition at @NPGLondon and a retrospective of her films @BFI Southbank. Some words and images here… https://t.co/dsVZiWc20x

In hiding for over a fortnight to swerve any scrutiny over his multitude of illicit donations but finally breaks cover to shit all over the express wishes of Henry Nowak’s family

You can set your watch by Farage’s pisswizardry

A stain on U.K. politics

There are two terrific exhibitions in London at the moment. Some words and pictures here…

This is a brilliant investigative piece on Farage, the dark millions behind him and the double standards of so much British journalism. Read and retweet! Nigel Farage pocketing £5m from a donor shows he’s unfit for power https://t.co/zHuVfDV8dh

Piers Morgan, "If we discovered last week that Keir Starmer has taken £5,000,000 without declaring it from a crypto billionaire in Thailand, Reform UK would have gone absolutely berserk" @piersmorgan 👏

Robert Jenrick, "We're talking about a gift even before Nigel Farage was a member of parliament"

Fiona Bruce, "But you know you have to declare it in the 12 months before you become an MP"

How low can Reform go? (Lower and lower, I suspect) https://t.co/pWP7FBXNMA

I was very sad to hear yesterday that the great Mike Westbrook is no longer with us. Here are some words of remembrance and appreciation. https://t.co/nk3fMAB8NT

@GAltringham idiotic question: there are many.

@rwilliams1947 Could not agree more. (Far better than Visconti's version.) Indeed, I think it may have improved on the novel in some ways.

@rwilliams1947 Very sad news indeed.

President Trump has posted this picture on social media of himself as Christ healing the sick. I’ve long given up saying how hard it is to think of any previous US president who behaved like Donald Trump, but comparing himself to Jesus puts him on another level altogether.

The great Craig Taborn - with Chris Potter & The Bad Plus - pays tribute to Keith Jarrett at the Barbican on Monday. I wrote about his recent album here. https://t.co/58LnvvF41u

@RpsAgainstTrump @HilarySummers10 Is this not one of the scariest things you’ve seen or heard?

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Stephen Miller praised Trump for several minutes. Then Trump turned to Kash Patel and said, “Kash, see if you can top that.”

Patel: “Mr. President, thank you for delivering the safest country on God’s green Earth.”

Straight up North Korea vibes

The great jazz composer, bandleader and pianist Mike Westbrook is 90 today, and has a new album out to mark it. A few words about that (and a couple of other fine releases) here… https://t.co/58LnvvF41u
