@trussliz What went wrong? You were a LibDem. Having said that a Uni VC who had dinner with you said you were vacant and had no charisma. Not news to the general public.
@Iromg How much effort does it take to realise that this is fake? Not much! Beware X posts with the UK flag. Unfortunately it’s been adopted by the sensational promoters of division. Really stupid.
Heseltine has just addressed a packed meeting of the European Movement at Tory conference. He does not show the restraint of most party leaders in his critique of Farage and Reform: “right wing equivalents to the fascists of the thirties are back on the march: Le Pen in France, AfD in Germany, Fdl in Italy, Vox in Spain and conspicuously Reform in this country. Much of President Trump's language in America coincides with words here in Europe. The immigrant has replaced the Jew as the problem which needs a solution although recent events here have cast a dark shadow…We must make clear that we will never have any part in the populist extremism of Nigel Farage. We have to deal with President Trump for the next 3 years. we don't need his mouthpiece anywhere near Number 10.”
I am delighted to welcome Professor Kumar into this key leadership role to drive forward @QUBelfast's new campus in India.
I am confident his leadership will build on the already strong academic partnerships in the country, enhancing co-operation and collaboration with local industry, government and business sectors to deliver a world-class experience for Queen’s students.
We welcome today’s significant trade agreement between the #UK and #India, which will further enhance connectivity between our countries.
This comes at a key moment as we're set to open our new #GIFTCity campus in India in early 2026.
We look forward to the business and economic opportunities our new campus will bring and enhance the already strong, collaborative relationships between #NorthernIreland and India.
I particularly welcome the remarks by Indian Prime Minister @NarendraModi around educational partnerships and look forward to advancing this vision as we open the doors of our new campus early next year.

After the loss of their daughter Catherine, Richard and Julie Buchanan made a decision that would change the lives of many others: they created a scholarship fund in her memory to support women in physics at Queen’s.
For students like Leah Donnelly, this gift didn’t just provide financial relief - it was a recognition of her potential. Over the course of three years, Leah used the award to reduce her workload, invest in her studies, and ultimately earn a place at Imperial College London for her PhD.
This is what a legacy looks like: practical support, profound impact and a story that continues through others.

@elonmusk What an ideot. Musk seems to be having some sort of breakdown. The richest man in the world must have a basic level of intelligence, if not integrity, but he's lacking both now.
OTD 35 years ago, Ceaușescu delivered what would become his final speech, addressing 100k people forcibly gathered there so he could stage a facade of popular support for his regime.
In one of the most iconic moments of modern history, he will lose control of the crowd.🧵
