Interesting. Driving up from Chalons-sur-Saone a few weeks ago, thinking about the regions too, passing from Bourgogne Franche Comte into Grand Est - how/why land is divided the way it is. What is the history and heritage of the regions of France?

This would allow significant investment in the health of the nation - attractive municipal environments, shared ownership of individual health, affordable fresh fruit and veg, better health for all with fewer inequities.
Rejoining the EU’s single market could boost the UK’s economy by as much as £150bn, Goldman Sachs has claimed. The Wall Street bank told clients in a note that there was “significant economic upside from ‘Breturn’” as it backed Andy Burnham’s calls for closer ties with the bloc ⤵️ telegraph.co.uk/business/202…

📝 Harvard study: women are disproportionately involved in jobs threatened by automation, yet are habitually excluded from AI development work.
Women are rarely quoted as experts on AI. From July 2025 to June 2026, among the well over 100,000 experts cited in domestic news coverage of AI, men appeared 4.3x more often than women. motherjones.com/politics/202…

QPR vs Derby Co #EFL @SkySports - my grandfather would have been happy to see the Rams 📺 (tho less happy with the score line approaching half-time!) One or two trips to Loftus Rd while at med school - jumping up to celebrate a Man U goal, finding myself in a minority of one 🙃

Good on you, Emily Thornberry. Manifesto commitment, proper democracy - “One of the reasons to vote [for a party]” 👍
'Get over it': Labour MP Dame Emily Thornberry's message on concerns about reopening 'divisive' Brexit debates. Thornberry tells @CathyNewman that the UK could re-join the EU without a second referendum if it was included as a manifesto commitment at a general election.
