We cannot allow our government to keep defying Brexit reality. Now more than ever they need to drop this idiocy about the single market and stop pandering to the Reform UK cult. We need to be at the heart of Europe again. It’s a matter of national and economic security.

We're saddened to hear that legendary musician and producer Quincy Jones has died aged 91. Alongside an illustrious career in popular music, Jones also composed a huge number of film soundtracks including The Italian Job and turned his hand to producing for screen with The Colour Purple and The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cjr4…

The £80m promised by the Tories to support workers and businesses in #PortTalbot was unfunded - a shocking dereliction of duty. I have fought tooth and nail for that money on behalf of our steel communities. The @UKLabour budget has fully funded it. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cn5w…

Suck it up, Dyson, after hoovering up farmland. The special pleading, self interest and self pity of wealthy landowners ploughing their own rich furrow is nauseating.

RIP Quincy Jones, who has died at the age of 91. The producer of Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra, Aretha Franklin & Donna Summer was also a student of the great French teacher Nadia Boulanger. @BBCRadio3 theguardian.com/music/2024/n…

Is he the multi-billionaire James Dyson who bought estates to become one of Britain’s biggest landowners? The same flag-waving Dyson who backed Brexit then moved his HQ from Wiltshire to Singapore? I do believe he is.

Kemi Badenoch says Partygate was overblown. I said my goodbye to my Mum via text so my Dad could get the one call. I couldn’t comfort him at her funeral with just 8 other people allowed. No wake or do for us. We stuck to the rules that the people who wrote them repeatedly broke.

Telling a Judge that the defendant didn’t do anything wrong when he broke the law because the law was a bad one is not a good idea especially if the defendant had actually made that law in the first place. Yup the #Conservatives remain unfit for office

The torrents of absolute shit @JaneyGodley had to endure in the past couple of years - including people saying her illness was a hoax - has been disgraceful. Her trolls were relentless but she stood up to them endlessly. I doubt they'll feel any shame. Lots of love to her family.

This is the problem. If having Trump as President only affected America, you’d be inclined to leave them to it Except my heart goes out to those sane and decent Americans who don’t want him either. This nutcase is EVERYBODY’S problem! 🌎😱
Replying to @reece_dinsdale
I just cannot understand why he is a credible choice for a huge part of the country. He a vile man and increasingly seems to be in cognitive decline, yet they’d still want him in charge ?! I’m praying he doesn’t get in, as the whole world will pay for his lunacy if he does
