@DPJHodges Interesting-many commentators on the right are now seeking to shore up Starmer. The tone has softened and become sympathetic. Douglas Murray writes in today's Spectator 'Hang on, Sir Keir' and warns that 'things can only get worse'. Charles Moore offers Starmer strategic advice.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

When simulation becomes the norm, it weakens the human capacity for discernment. As a result, our social bonds close in upon themselves, forming self-referential circuits that no longer expose us to reality. We thus come to live within bubbles, impermeable to one another. Feeling threatened by anyone who is different, we grow unaccustomed to encounter and dialogue. In this way, polarization, conflict, fear and violence spread. What is at stake is not merely the risk of error, but a transformation in our very relationship with truth.

Superb piece by @j_amesmarriott
“Bizarrely, at the very moment society is waking up to the harms addictive digital devices are inflicting on children they may become mandatory for adults.”

Huge ESW congrats to @vikbromley who passed her #PhD with only minor corrections. Vicky's study was on ' Lone mothers' experiences of accessing homelessness help' and her supervisors were Dr @TishMarrable and Prof Charles Watters.

@austeni @BBCMaryam I thought the coverage was excellent. Thank you.

@PippaCrerar I think at this crucial time the prospects for peace are best served by careful diplomacy rather than belligerent rhetoric

[Charles Watters @Watterscw]

@austeni Wonderful news!

@therestismoney @Peston @StephLunch It is often a quite different story for immigrants to Scandinavian countries many of whom have subsequently sought better lives in the UK.

@evrthegentleman @British_Airways It’s awful- been ringing them all day with no reply. Bag missing since Tuesday. No information. Do you know if they deliver over the weekend?

[Charles Watters @Watterscw]

@evrthegentleman @British_Airways We had three bags on flight from Naples on Tuesday. Two were delivered yesterday, but no sign of mine. Can’t get through on phone, email or messaging.

RT @FraserNelson: Remember the number: £3,018. That's how much Tories will raise taxes under the same (daft) methodology https://t.co/xBhfB…

[Charles Watters @Watterscw]

On Sunak’s maths, Tories will lift taxes by £3,000 per household https://t.co/eVn7NJHTQz

@RestIsPolitics That The Sun's political editor said just after the debate that the release of a poll was 'imminent'. The poll result was, strangely, not released until today- too late for the newspapers. It showed Starmer won by 20% of the vote.

Hundreds of young men have died trying to use boats to get from Senegal to the Canary Islands.

On this #Daily episode, @skynewsniall speaks to Sky's @YousraElbagir and @BeckyJohnsonSky about the drivers and fears for those migrating.
