WOW! Everyone should listen to this superb maiden speech from newly appointed Prisons, Parole & Probation Minister @JamesTCobbler in the House of Lords today
What an absolutely inspired appointment this is👏👏👏
Deeply disappointed to see no mention of farming in yesterday's Kings Speech. The damaging actions taken by the previous Conservative Government have left many farmers across our country in real hardship, struggling to keep their farm going.
Really great game. Congratulations Spain 🇪🇸
Nail biting game to the end but the best team won.
I’ve loved the spirit from this England squad though.
They’ve never given up.
It’s been an awesome ride.
Till the next time

Football is a simple game. Twenty-two men chase a ball for 90 minutes and at the end, the G̶e̶r̶m̶a̶n̶s̶ English always win.
All the best for the final on Sunday, England! #EURO2024
Incredible anecdote by @danielboffey in the Guardian

Remembering Lt. Fred Brewer, the American fighter pilot who was killed on a mission to Germany during WWII. A graduate of Shaw University, Lt. Brewer was among the more than 900 Black pilots who trained at the segregated Tuskegee Army Air Field in Alabama.
As you watch the Aurora this evening, it’s worth reflecting that you’re getting a rare direct glimpse of the power of Nature. Those charged particles causing the atmosphere to glow came from a sunspot complex 17 times the diameter of Earth and traveled across 90 million miles at a million miles an hour. Without our magnetic field to protect us, our atmosphere would have been lost to space long ago. Those colours in the sky are Nature reminding us that we’re very lucky to be here amidst the violence. And perhaps therefore also reminding us not to shite it all up :-)
This is the last contract I will have with BT or EE. Its now easy to see the distress caused to my elderly mother earlier in the year. It was impossible to follow with everything being read too fast. Impatience and just plain rude.
@bt_uk@EE Appalling #CustomerService experience with EE/BT. Rude, belligerent and downright unhelpful when our TV package has been cancelled without our knowledge. 2nd example of deliberate lack of transparency to push through a deal a month ago that is now going to cost us more
I defy anyone to see this show and not come away feeling 10 feet tall and full of joy and happiness. A wonderful human. A wonderful cast. Thank you @jojo_radebe#HouseofJojo#PriscillaonAcid
