@Cobratate Happy New Year Mr Tate. I hope you endure the worst level of depression imaginable in 2023. It’s so fab that an intelligent young woman has shown the world what an immensely sad loser you really are!

#BORISorBUST As a dog returns to its own vomit, so the Conservative party goes back to Johnson again.

All those bishops, and other senior clergy, tweeting about how wonderful Tutu was when he went to glory just a short time ago - how dare you? How can you live with yourselves when with one hand you write worthy Tweets and with the other you do this? https://t.co/jlBqjqJPTE

No-one watching the Queen's funeral can fail to have been moved by the power of #music and the skill of the performers and composers.
Can we now please stop treating music as an optional extra in UK music education?

[rolf hind @RolfHind]

Yesterday's events - whatever your feelings about them - showed to billions around the world the SPECTACULAR impact music makes. When the vox pops and voiceovers have stopped their clumsy prose, music speaks to our hearts.
Fund it, and fund its teaching, please. @michelledonelan

[Ariane Todes @ArianeTodes]

That was all truly magnificent. Let’s remember, folks – classical music is for life, not just for funerals!

@RolfHind What’s going on with you and Berlioz?

[Matthew King @MatKingComposer]

@RolfHind Queen Mab. Fab.

@bainalee @MimiDoulton @P_Auchterlonie @spower_steph @adrianbradbury8 Lovely to see you Baina! I promise I’ll do better next time we meet at the ROH!

[Mimi Doulton @MimiDoulton]

We reassembled Jane's Minstrels today (plus @P_Auchterlonie and myself) for four hours' tribute to Jane and Tony in Colourscape. I am so very, very happy and proud. Thank you everyone who made this happen ♥️

[Mimi Doulton @MimiDoulton]

Londoners! I've co-curated a concert in memory of Jane Manning and Tony Payne on 11 September, 12.30 - 4.30pm at Clapham Common Colourscape. Lots of really gorgeous music including horn trios by Tony, @spower_steph & @MatKingComposer:

This is absolutely SHOCKING!

The Cabinet Office has released a film reminding British exporters of all the bureaucracy they now need to go through to sell goods to the EU after Brexit

Watch in disbelief! No wonder British business is being crucified with Brexit red tape & costs

[Gary Lineker @GaryLineker]

Attempting to stop people trafficking by doing your own people trafficking is a bizarre concept. You could argue that however awful and exploitative these people traffickers are, at least they’re getting people to go where they want. Our people traffickers, not so much.

Presumably Nadine Dorries Is now planning to sell off the Church of England.

It’s time people ✊️

BREAKING: If you are upset with your national insurance going up, you will be relieved that Chancellor Rishi Sunak's billionaire wife has avoided paying tax through her non-dom status. Isn't it lovely how rich people have a get out clause and you don't? x
