Inspiring Journeys to a Better Life

[Peter Ricketts @LordRickettsP]

I’ve sent the PM on behalf of 33 distinguished signatories (+me) a letter calling on the Gov’t to sustain funding for the British Council. An effective national security strategy in a changed world needs not just more defence spending but investment in our soft power assets. 1/2

@Wenlockedge1 @KirstieMAllsopp Because the children of farmers will likely be forced to sell up to pay the inheritance tax. This will affect the size and economies of scale of family-run farms. Farms will be split up. This will affect agricultural productivity.

Most farms of any size are over £1m

@ChristChurchCh7 @siheron @visitchelt Stunning

@timoncheese @vickyecarter Brilliant and humble man.

Everyone’s focussed on what the doctor says RE: Letby.
But listen closely - what he implies about the way the NHS more broadly handles patient safety concerns (from its own staff) is damning.

[Johnny Mercer @JohnnyMercerUK]

Obviously the haters are upset.. they don’t like being called out for their nonsense.

The real world is very different. Parents want their kids to go to good schools more than they want to hear aimless policies from people who don’t actually believe in anything at all.

For women, singing is forbidden in Iran. This woman is bravely singing in one of Esfahan’s most historical mosques. When the security agent tried to stop her, she resisted and continued. Brave Iranian women like her will some day bring down this most anti-woman regime.

In life, things can always be better, but they can also always be worse – worrying about it is a waste of time. Be appreciative of what you have right now and embrace the moment - the time is yours so be happy.

I spent 16 years in the British military - 10 years with #UKSF and 6 years with the #Gurkhas – serving during some of the most challenging conflicts in modern times - while continuing to guide, smashing records and have 36x8000m successful expeditions. I know things could have been different for the good and the bad. But yet I never dwell on this; I embrace my existence for today and I'm happy. Make your moment today.

@johnredwood Bishops - in this context- have not created the divisions - only politicians who should own the consequences of their ill judged actions.

[John Suchet @johnsuchet1]

Thank you so much Andy.

Yes , you should fear my honesty and loyalty. I was that guy who gave everything for the people and Remember I gave it all for the better world, I’m nothing , my personal agenda means nothing . I dropped everything for the people and for human race .

I’m still that self made

@Brink_Thinker Yes!

[Nigel Owens MBE @Nigelrefowens]

I’ve thought long and hard about posting this letter I received in the post a few weeks ago singed by a Steel Worker PT. But unless we start calling out these kind of people nothing will change. It hurts and there is no need for all this hate. #BeKind

@implausibleblog Have a look at the excellent and balanced report from the Financial Times to see a different conclusion.
