The “La Marseillaise” scene in Casablanca (1942) still lands with staggering power. Many extras were actual refugees from Nazi-occupied Europe, which is why it feels so painfully genuine.

Absolutely batshit quote in @patrickkmaguire’s must-read column on Labour’s thinking about The Current Events

Excited to share that my book on how Blair govt delivered transformative public service reform is available to pre-order 👇

3544 days since the Ed Stone was unveiled, it's architect is made a Treasury Minister.

The shame half life.

Tulip Siddiq wins the 2025 ministerial sack race.

Retread Emma Reynolds takes her Treasury role with ever-online 2024 new boy Torsten Bell earning promotion too.

I joked about this during the debates but now we've got to the end, I think it's the best option...

[Roh Yakobi @RohYakobi]

Came here as a refugee with no English or connections. Dared and almost became an MP last month. Don’t let small groups of rioting thugs define what Britain is. Ours is a wonderful country. We have so much to be proud of. 🇬🇧🌹

[Fossil Free Books @fossilfreebooks]

Many authors are concerned about receiving a hostile reception at literary festivals, while some who have received threats and abuse online are worried about their physical safety - particularly women and people of colour.

Voters in marginal seats talk of little else...

📉❌Politicians seeking to get re-elected should commit to scrapping all non-financial reporting requirements on businesses, and turning back the ESG ratchet.

West Central GLA seat has *always* been Tory. It includes Westminster, Kensington and Chelsea, and Fulham.

Angie Bray had an 18,000 majority in 2000.

Hall’s campaign has been a disaster.

Moderate Tories can buck the swing as Andy Street shows. Hardliners lose.

For the longest time I assumed that Kenneth Clark's Civilisation had been produced by the senior Conservative Ken Clarke - rather like Portillo had done trains.

What are your biggest former misconceptions of this nature?

[Luke Tryl @LukeTryl]

Further reflection on Andy Street, clear win or lose he will significantly out perform the Tory vote. Given he’s governed as a moderate/big tent Conservative might it give some pause to those at NatCon this week who argue tacking populist right is the sole path to Tory success

I'd hope every MP would confront such a statement head on.

Liz should really know better.

You can't triangulate with terrorists - you can't compromise with communists - more from my @CPAC speech 👇
