@campbellclaret @RestIsPolitics Excellent conversation! The curating on Leading is impeccable!

[E Ihejirika @dcukweb]

Just enjoyed the wonderful conversation you and @campbellclaret had with James Manyika on Leading, and heard you mention pre-migraine anxiety in the Ad for BetterHelp.

Tried 'feverfew' for your migraines? Please do if you haven't. I suffered from debilitating bouts of the dreadful thing until my nhs consultant suggested I try it.

A reminder that Sadiq Khan won three elections in a row by large majorities against Conservative opponents, one of whom, Shaun Bailey, was then given a seat in the House of Lords for life.

Funnily enough I don't remember the Daily Mail describing that as a "reward for failure"

@campbellclaret @Nigel_Farage Awesome 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
But what’s in the fine print?

@sebastiansalek So much to do so little time

[Sebastian Salek @sebastiansalek]

Labour racked up the wins this week.

Lots of new initiatives to make the country fairer and greener in particular. (Though much of it didn’t make the papers.)

What you might have missed:

[Sam Rushworth MP @SamJRushworth]

Reform MPs rarely show up, but this evening, I watched them walk into the "no" lobby to vote against ending fire & rehire, zero hours contracts, and exploitative pay.

@DavidOlusoga You are awesome! They can’t touch you

Wangari Maathai was the first female professor in Kenya and the first African woman to be awarded the #NobelPeacePrize. She founded the Green Belt Movement, which led to the planting of millions of trees.

Today we announce the 2024 Nobel Peace Prize.

.@KamalaHarris doesn’t have “concepts of a plan” for the American people – she has actual plans to make your life better. And she’s more than ready to be President. Let’s help her get elected: https://t.co/P9hoDajB1P

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Real strength is about helping people who need it. It’s about standing up for those who can’t always stand up for themselves. Let’s get to work and vote for the leaders who demonstrate that kind of character. Vote for @KamalaHarris and @Tim_Walz.

Sky News can reveal Home Secretary Yvette Cooper went for free to a Taylor Swift concert as guest of Swift’s music label Universal Music.

Ms Cooper went as a guest of her huband, Ed Balls who was given four tickets.

That came after the home secretary had discussions about boosting protection for Ms Swift when she was in London after concerts were cancelled in Vienna because of a foiled attack

Mr Balls was offered the tickets on August 4, before the Swift's shows in Vienna were cancelled for a show on August 16

This has not appeared in the public register to date because the tickets were understood to be worth £170 - less than the £300 that would make it a declarable expense.

Earlier today the home secretary made the declaration to the cabinet office.

Do they need any help packing?

[LBC @LBC]

"Have they broken laws? – No."
"Have they broken any rules? – No."
"Have they accepted donations and lied? – No."

Amid the Labour gifts row, @mrjamesob criticises the 'absolute salad of rollocks' served up by a Tory Party who 'led this country to the 'abattoir'.
