Watching #C4Debate, hearing so many pledges about righting wrongs and so many promises about tackling injustice, makes me wish that these men had been in government so they could have had a chance to implement them Oh, wait .....

Think I’ve got it now. Throwing a milkshake at someone is outrageous but twatting someone from behind is fine. Drinking an M&S mojito on a train is outrageous but taking cocaine is fine. And straight, white men like me are persecuted every day. Welcome to the the alt-rightiverse.

Ten years ago, Yorkshire and the Humber elected a BNP MEP. Its now elected Magid Magid. If that isn't a reason for hope and faith in people, then what is? 💚

It’s a brutal world out there. So much despair and hopelessness. Be kind. Be loving. Be gracious. Be merciful. Be forgiving. Be hopeful. Be generous. Be joyful. Be gentle. It really does go a long way.

Deeply sad about Notre Dame, but shocked at the hypocrisy of humanity. We destroy over 150 acres of rainforest every minute and do not give it a second thought, yet fall into mourning at the loss of a building.

£260.6m: paid by Premier League clubs to agents in 2018-19, which doesn't include sums paid by players to agents. £260.6m: the wages for all employees, not just players, at all 24 League Two clubs combined. For four years.

A parent in the Birmingham LGBT row said that ‘homosexuality’ is a choice. I called his view ridiculous and dangerous. As if LGBT people being persecuted across the world chose their sexuality.People complained it was BBC bias. I make no apologies for calling out homophobia.

Regarding LGBT issues being discussed in schools. When I was at school it seemed there were no gay pupils at all. Now I look back, of course there were, they just didn’t feel able to be themselves. I feel sad that they had to hide, and stupid that I didn’t know. So teach away pls

Another tragedy left 44 migrants dead in the Mediterranean off the coast of Libya last night. Like the 44 who died off Morocco only 3 days ago, they will go unnamed. Where is the outrage? The mourning? In the silence, we ask, may they finally find the refuge they were seeking.

Speaker getting one of the biggest kickings in Fleet Street history tonight... but it is these papers that created this mess, not him. They misled readers and led them to disaster.

Today in 1996 a man walked into a Scottish school and shot dead 16 wee kids and a brave teacher. We created strict gun laws and a mass school shooting has never happened since in Scotland. Sending peace and love to all the families of the Dunblane massacre today X

I'm not religious, but if I was, I'd probably want to worship at Coventry Cathedral.

A question for #AshWednesday: how do we stand in greater solidarity with those whose lives are in ashes? Let’s pray for those who are lost or alone, bereaved or heartbroken, afraid or in despair – and ask Christ to guide us in standing alongside them. #Lent

"Every generation pretends gang crime is a new problem." Rapper and author Akala says the social indicators of violence have "remained identical for almost 200 years".

The first to apologise is the bravest. The first to forgive is the strongest. The first to forget is the happiest.
