#BBCr4today Correction not @BBCPM but BBC world at one

#wesstreeting #r4today Nick Robinson prevented Wes Streeting finishing almost any sentence. Not the best way for us to judge what he has to announce. The interview on pm with shadow health minister showed that cross party work can happen. Evan Davis shows how to listen Nick!

@GWRHelp Considering all the delays and cancellations today, this might be one of the worst days you could have decided to end customer support early.

Last rose of summer 24. 'Compassion'.

@haveigotnews Something wrong with Hannah Fry's microphone tonight?

#ClimateChange is the biggest strategic challenge we face as a country, and as a world.

So I took the opportunity to ask the Commons Leader @LucyMPowell to join me in welcoming the new Parliamentarian’s Guide to Climate Change by @UniofExeter, the @metofficeUK, & @Peers4Planet.

At this morning’s #Transport questions, I asked the minister @LilianGreenwood about how we can create a real system that is accessible for everyone, and mentioning specifically the challenges people with mobility challenges face at #StThomas and #PolsloeBridge stations in #Exeter

@bbc you should have stuck with the @metoffice !

@steve_race There is a consultation out now by Devon! Let's all just say buses, buses, buses!! If this doesn't happen we are doomed to traffic Armageddon...

Countering false stories. Council Leader Phil Bialyk said decisions made by its ruling Executive will always be taken in the best interests of the city. https://t.co/Y091XDum1b

Today the Government has announced that the proposed Devon & Torbay devolution deal will go ahead.

It includes new money for retrofit of council houses in Exeter, but this deal should be a starting point, not an end state. We can be even more ambitious for Exeter and our region.

@Devoniannie Yes I should have added, a heavenly scent too! Best year for these since I planted it. I do prune properly…hard in the autumn and train horizontally as much as space allows. But these escaped and went skywards.

Beautiful Compassion roses at the end of summer. A small success in a bad year for the garden.

I owe the NHS my life. From my GP to my dermatologist to my oncologist, the nurses, cleaners and receptionists. Innovation runs through its veins. But putting it back on its feet with far more emphasis on primary care will be the defining mission of this government.

Exeter City Council Leader Phil Bialyk has called on Devon County Council to use proposed new powers to transform bus services in the city. https://t.co/UVD7d4OfnJ

Great talk by #Devon’s foremost historian Dr Todd Gray on his new book on #Exeter’s links with Empire. Thanks to @InclusiveExeter for bringing people together in @ExeterGuildhall.

Also lovely to meet Decca whose grandfather built the scale model of WWII heavy cruiser HMS Exeter!

BREAKING: In a shocking moment, Donald Trump just announced that he is going to adopt Project 2025’s policy to fire civil servants and hire political staff loyal only to Trump. Retweet to make sure all Americans are aware of Trump’s devious plans.

Really happy to be asked to be a patron of @StPetrocks - one of our most well-known & active charities in #Exeter, helping people in crisis & experiencing homelessness.

I’ll do everything I can to help St P’s in their mission to provide life-saving services for people in need.
