Such music we had! It is almost history. Hunger is not.

[🎸 Rock History 🎸 @historyrock_]

Some of the best performances from the legendary Live Aid concert in 1985.

@ChrisGibbins82 Phew! Your public, Chris, was getting worried that you’d run out of cocktails. Thank goodness you’ve started again with old favourites.

[Peter Hannon @peterhannonshef]

I can vouch for this one. Great cocktail, great barman.

[Peter Hannon @peterhannonshef]

@ChrisGibbins82 Supermoon over Sheffield. Could it be the same one?

[Marcus Chown @marcuschown]

Has anyone noticed that after 13 years of Conservative government nothing seems to work any more and we are all much poorer while they are considerably richer?

[Peter Hannon @peterhannonshef]

@ChrisGibbins82 Phew! Thank goodness someone knows the right way to support our girls.

A reminder that this govt are privatising our healthcare without any mandate to do so.

- not in their manfesto
- not debated in parliament
- not challenged by media

This is an unelected PM profoundly changing our healthcare…

This is not democracy!

@ChrisGibbins82 Three of your five a day?

[Peter Hannon @peterhannonshef]

@ChrisGibbins82 OMG! Just how many cocktails was all that ice for?

[Peter Hannon @peterhannonshef]

@EleanorKerslake Eleanor, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I did not know your dad personally but I admired what he did and the values he represented, especially in recent years when he was freer to be himself. You have much to be proud of. Peter Hannon

Oh dear, another tough Friday. Hope you get through.

Good to see growing protest over forced academisation of KES in Sheffield. #handsoffkes

[Peter Hannon @peterhannonshef]

#handsoffkes As a former Professor of Education at Sheffield University whose two daughters attended KES, I believe its forced academisation is an outrageous offence to committed educators and to local democracy. Shame on Ofsted and the governments that created this monster.
