[Kateryna Lisunova @KaterynaLis]

Very emotional moment from the interview with Zelenskyy. You should watch this.

JOURNALIST: Do you miss being an actor?

ZELENSKYY:?I miss being a good father.

JOURNALIST: When your children were little, what did you tell them the most? What was the thing that you told them the most when they were small?

ZELENSKYY: I love you.

JOURNALIST: And what do you tell them now that they're older?

ZELENSKYY: Oh, I miss you.

JOURNALIST: When was the last time you cried?

ZELENSKYY: I will try to do it after our interview. No, I mean this, between us. I'm a normal man and then there are a lot of different moments, between us, almost each day, a lot of losses on the battlefield and civilians, and there are absolutely crazy attacks on our people.

And I'm just, it's… I mean, It's very difficult really, when I give orders (medals). I said about it. It's always difficult for me when I give orders (medals) to the mothers and fathers, who lost their children. In such moments, really, I often cry.

JOURNALIST: Are you a hero?

ZELENSKYY: No.

JOURNALIST: So who is your hero?

ZELENSKYY:?My hero? My children, my army, our army, and Ukrainian people. So I'm a part… I'm also a Ukrainian, so I'm a part of our nation. But now our nation, I think, that our nation is absolutely heroic.

The deal with Iran will go down as one of the most incompetent ever made. The U.S. lost on virtually every point. We just don't win anymore!

Thought for the day.

[Adam Boxer @adamboxer1]

By sheer coincidence, it was my turn to do Thought For The Day at TTA this morning, so I chose to talk about the horrific attack in Golders Green yesterday, and what it means to be a Jew in 2026 Britain.

Please give it a few minutes of your time if you can.

Driving to Brighton to see Autechre at Chalk tonight. Carrying a spare ticket which would be a shame to waste (it is sold out). DM me and I can meet you there.

We are delighted to announce that Sweep has been awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. His sausage-themed magazine was praised for its uncompromising and compassionate penetration of the effects of ketchup and wurst-related prejudice.

More information to follow.

We had to wait at least a whole day for the predictably-wrong Simon Jenkins to weigh in: https://t.co/8tZikxGVD4 . Re. other prattishly ignorant input, at least I quite like Simon Pegg...

Great night at Hackney Church to see @signifyingwolf again. First time back since April’s last time with @lowtheband :(

[Stuart Ocock @Stueytunes]

@PaulHusband_ Hello Paul, your photos are marvellous. I’d also like the Low one and will be happy to donate. Was great to see them again at Hackney this spring and have been listening to them solidly for the last few weeks.

[Stuart Ocock @Stueytunes]

@lowtheband Heartbroken. All love and strength to you Alan and all your family x

@StagecoachSE And again today. Does this service still run?

[Stuart Ocock @Stueytunes]

@StagecoachSE no 17 Canterbury 0830 to Bridge this morning. 1/2hr wait then gave up. No info here or on webpage I could find, hence useless. Wet bedraggled kids late for school again. This service never runs on time. I passed the (late) next 17 as I drove back from Bridge.
