@BenedictSpence That’s such a shame for empty seats - I applied and it was ‘sold out’. He’s such a great academic.

[Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @MayorofLondon]

Complaining about nightlife when you *checks notes* choose to live in Soho is like living in South Kensington and complaining about the museums.

Or moving to Hackney and grumbling about creatives. Living in Richmond and hating green space. 

It's all getting a bit silly, isn't it?

@JAHeale Not quite ‘ravens leaving the Tower of London’ but perhaps more ‘ravens going on a short package holiday to the Algarve’.

@simonmontefiore Fond memories of drinks and late nights there.

@kevinhollinrake @drangiehobbs @JDVance Quite. Matt 7:3-5

@aDissentient Bit snowflakey of them. Robust debate and even dissent is positive and shouldn’t really be an issue regardless of whether one agree (or vehemently opposes) the speaker.

@CoussinsSharon @simonmontefiore @britishmuseum I missed out first time so hope it’s open to members again (for those kicked out)

It’s is a really dark day when a talk about the history of ancient Israel and Judah is cancelled by the British Museum because of ‘security concerns’.
Is this what we do now? We cave in?

Probably a contrarian position to most but @carla_denyer is a very hardworking MP who I’ve see at a lot of events and policy discussions in Parliament. Burnout for MPs is an issue and I wish her a speedy recovery.

[GB Politics @GBPolitcs]

🚨NEW: Green party MP Carla Denyer has announced that she is going to "take several weeks off" as she claims to be too tired and suffering from "burnout"

This comes at the same time as summer

@soniasodha Looking forward to the marches about this …

[Richard Walsh @RickyWalsh1973]

@WarioArgento @SirSimonClarke Completely agree.

[Richard Walsh @RickyWalsh1973]

@aedmans Spot on and very worrying that many don’t seem to understand this.

[Richard Walsh @RickyWalsh1973]

@MatthewStadlen She’s not wrong

[Richard Walsh @RickyWalsh1973]

Rejoin EU/massively closer alignment? Spending an absolute fortune on renationalising energy, water and whatever else? Flicked through the 2024Labour manifesto this morning and couldn’t see any of that. Change of leader needs these issues out before the public in an GE.

A great last home game of the season @CoventryRugby - onwards to the Champ Semi Final against Bedford Blues. Look after my seat until the new season starts ;-)

VAR that one!
