1/5 Here's video #4 on The Art of Explanation. It looks at how effective communication and explanation is about substance - but it's about style too. Because we need people's attention if we're to get our message across. The other videos (and a link to pre-order) are below.

James O'Brien reacts to Liz Truss's "gross" suggestion that she would just "ignore" the First Minister of Scotland Nicola Sturgeon if she becomes PM.

Dear rest of the world:
We’re working through a few things here in the UK at the moment. Long story, but basically a midlife crisis. Give us a day or two and we’ll have it sorted and get back to drinking our tea.
Ta for caring

Wanted: New housemate for Westminster based feline. Recently decorated house includes excellent security, lightly used office space and large garden, suitable for hosting parties. Deep clean required.

[Larry the Cat @Number10cat]

That did the job. No need to thank me.

If Boris Johnson hasn’t resigned by 10am I will be forced to crap in his shoes. #DowningStreetSiege

[Larry the Cat @Number10cat]

Time to clarify a few things:
1. I’m not “Boris Johnson’s cat”
2. Like all Prime Ministers, he’s only a temporary resident of Downing Street
3. I live here permanently. When he finally goes, I stay
4. Yes, it’s all very embarrassing but it will be over soon

“I can no longer, in good conscience, live with this Prime Minister. Either he goes, or I do”

If you’re just getting going, here’s a story that’s becoming hugely significant. Finland may ask to join Nato within weeks. This would double NATO’s border with Russia - and the Kremlin is warning it will act to ‘rebalance the situation’ if this happens.

@GaryAndrews77 @JohnTillUK @pnh14 @SimonJonesNews Think writing was on the wall long before IF turned up at Dover. Let us not forget why IF changed their crewing model in the first place - P&O / DFDS / Stena all had foreign crews on various ships across the UK network. They still do. Others have followed, e.g. Seatruck (Polish)

[Justin Merrigan @JustinMerrigan]

@GaryAndrews77 @JohnTillUK @pnh14 @SimonJonesNews IF responsible for P&O's behaviour? Don't you think that really is stretching it @GaryAndrews77
