Thank you @AvantiWestCoast for your kind hospitality and for supporting Veterans on the WCML. Almost back home in Edinburgh after a long and emotional #RemembranceDay

[Douggie B-W MBE 🏳️‍🌈 @douggie_ward]

What an honour today was - paying my marks of respect this #RemembranceDay with the #FightingWithPride @fightingwpride Veterans on the 25th Anniversary year of the Lifting of the Ban on LGBT Service.

@CrossCountryUK Thank you :)

[Douggie B-W MBE 🏳️‍🌈 @douggie_ward]

Dear @CrossCountryUK please can you explain why you have refused to refund my train ticket for a journey that you cancelled due to last Friday’s red weather warning? Your helpdesk, didn’t help, they hung up instead!

[Douggie B-W MBE 🏳️‍🌈 @douggie_ward]

@CrossCountryUK I called the number in the email…

Sandi is going where many celebrities dare not tread. Now, say what you will, she is a truly brave woman standing up to the school yard bullies like JK Rowling and Sharron Davies. Thank you Sandi, xx

"The Naval Reserves have won the same number of Victoria Crosses as the Parachute Regiment and Royal Marines combined." ⚓️

But what are they for in the modern world, and what's the right balance of investment?

Really good article.

And please always reach out to your friends, family and loved ones, we never truly know what is going on in each others lives - I’m OK is not an answer.

[Douggie B-W MBE 🏳️‍🌈 @douggie_ward]

It goes without saying that I am also thinking of the family of those involved. They will be suffering tonight.

[Douggie B-W MBE 🏳️‍🌈 @douggie_ward]

I just needed to say thank you for the professionalism and compassion that @CrossCountryUK staff on the 1409 from BPW displayed today in tragic circumstances. Thinking of your driver, your crew, @BTP, @WMPolice and @OFFICIALWMAS responders. Thoughts and prayers go out to all.

@AlastairBruce_ @edinburghcastle Congratulations 🙌

[Alastair Bruce @AlastairBruce_]

After 5yrs raising profile of a great Scottish role, as Governor @edinburghcastle, I now seek honour to do same, as Chancellor of Oxford University, promoting university’s research & academic mission; its global community & its intent to remain world class in research & teaching

[Fighting With Pride @fightingwpride]

Yesterday, work on the LGBT+ Armed Forces Community Memorial project began in earnest with a site visit to the @Nat_Mem_Arb in Burton-on-Trent, with a visit and tour for Veterans and our incredible support organisations who make up the FWP project steering group 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

[Danny C 🧜🏼‍♂️ @ArielAppears]

Didn’t get the A Level results you were hoping for?

I’m Danny, I left college with 2 U’s and 2 D’s… Now, I’ve served in the Royal Navy for 8 years and I’m a qualified Air Traffic Control Officer.

I’ve travelled, played sport internationally at service level, I’ve lectured on leadership, equality & diversity and now I’m starting my own business.

Today may feel like the end of the world because you’ve not achieved your expectations but I can assure you, there is so so much more out there for you to explore.

You have options, doors are still very much open! It’s all going to be okay.

I do not blame anyone leaving this site, given what it has become.

But as long as there are charlatans lying about the law and undermining our justice system, I’ll be here, banging my tiny lawsplaining drum, churning out Legal Live Tweets and laying some truth on yo sorry asses.
