Not acceptable from the IOC to allow a fighter who failed a gender eligibility test to fight. It's a very good thing that boxing is being removed from the games for 2028 (as things stand).

Until today, nobody knew exactly how many veterans there were in England and Wales, or where they lived.

Thanks to our successful Count Them In campaign, we now have data to better help our Armed Forces community get the support they need, when and where they need it 👇

An update on London Poppy Day ⬇️

[Daniel Sugarman @Daniel_Sugarman]

As I've seen elsewhere: Waking up this morning, we have a Christian King, a Hindu Prime Minister, a Jewish Home Secretary and a Muslim Mayor of London.

You can disagree with personal politics, but that is a victory for a diverse, multicultural Britain - and we should be proud.
