I will be leaving X soon, fed up with #Musk’s disinformation, and am now on Threads @grahamrkings

#Trump’s disastrous comment about the #veterans’ medal sounds even worse than #Sunak’s mistake of leaving the D Day celebrations early …

[William Crawley @williamcrawley]

Why would any candidate for any elected office say something so dismissive of military veterans who’ve been awarded their country’s highest medal for heroism?

If there's going to be an X..odus from this platform (and I think there should be) let's make it a coordinated one. My thoughts on how and when. https://t.co/duyhxqB15h

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Nikki Haley on Trump: “You mock one veteran, you mocking all veterans. But this is a pattern; he’s done it over & over again…The problem with Trump is, that he’s never been anywhere near a uniform; he apparently had some sort of foot reason…”

Timothy Dudley-Smith who has died aged 97 is fondly remembered as Bishop of Thetford 1981-92 in @DioceseNorwich & as a writer of 400+ hymns including Tell Out My Soul. May he now fully know “the greatness of the Lord”.

[Graham Kings @GrahamRKings]

Wonderful bishop and superb hymn writer. RIP, Timothy Dudley-Smith.

‘Elon #Musk should face arrest if he incited UK rioters, says ex-Twitter chief’. Indeed. And #Farage too. Bye-election in #Clacton? https://t.co/uUHFbR3Hst

Indeed. Especially ‘Here come the speeches - what we’ve all been waiting for’ and ‘Oh’ after an awful pun (both by Andrew Cotter).

Cotter and Irvine making a ‘challenging’ watch much more entertaining than it might otherwise be….🙌🏻🙌🏻🧡🏅

Good to see the Sunday Times giving credit where it is due to Keir Starmer and the government for its handling of the riots. Tory leadership candidates who tried to play petty politics with this at the start of the week disgraced themselves and shamed their shameless party
