As a family we just visited our Church to place our photo of Pope Francis in the Lady Chapel.
Our son’s middle name is Francis after the late Holy Father and his namesake St Francis. Our world needs more leaders like Pope Francis, that ‘smell like their sheep’.

Lovely to catch up with @CityHallLabour friends last night, including the @MayorofLondon, @SadiqKhan. Great to celebrate Sadiq and @LondonLabour’s historic third term, supporting our great city to become greener, more prosperous & providing free school meals for children

Beautiful and moving speech from @FloEshalomi - today's debate has been so tough on our MPs - they need our support and prayers as they come to this important decision today.

This is terrible news for London and shameful behaviour from @LBofHavering not supporting its move to Dagenham. Classic NIMBY behaviour from a terribly run council, led by its incompetent Resident councillors.
This is very sad.
Smithfield Market set to close after almost 800 years
City of London have ditched plans to relocate it to Dagenham.
They want to use the old site for “mixed use cultural development”, whatever that means.
France would never do this

#WorldSightDay is ending in the UK and my kids loved watching @IAPB1 Global Ambassador HRH The Duchess of Edinburgh read "Specs for Rex" on @CBeebiesHQ. Such a positive story about glasses.👓
Thanks to everyone who helped make it this happen! #LoveYourEyes
Happy Feast of the Assumption! It was lovely to celebrate this most special feast today at Corpus Christi Catholic Church, Maiden Lane, the @RCWestminster Shrine of the Blessed Sacrament in Covent Garden
Almighty ever-living God,
who assumed the Immaculate Virgin Mary,
the Mother of your Son,
body and soul into heavenly glory,
grant, we pray,
that, always attentive to the things that are above,
we may merit to be sharers of her glory.

The most beautiful words ever said were by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount. Scrolling through X today I’m reminded of these from Mt 39, 43-44
But I say this to you: offer no resistance to the wicked. On the contrary, if anyone hits you on the right cheek, offer him the other.

New York discovers wheely bins… one day @LBofHavering might even discover this wonderful technology!
“Welcome to our trash revolution.” Mayor Adams introduces the new bin that buildings with 1-9 units will be required to use instead of loose bags of garbage

Massive congrats to @Heidi_Labour, who not only will be great to have back in the House of Commons, but is also now a Minister in the new government!
It’s a huge honour - and a massive responsibility - to have been asked to serve by @Keir_Starmer as a member of his new Government. I look forward to getting straight to work with @ShabanaMahmood and @JamesTCobbler.

There are a lot of us concerned about how @Jacqui_Smith1 received her call while in her caravan without phone signal… was it via a certain shop @IainDale…
First batch of non-cabinet ministerial appointments from Keir Starmer.
Ex-cabinet minister Douglas Alexander straight back into government.
More surprisingly, another ex-cabinet minister Jacqui Smith gets a peerage and a job at Education

Commiserations @Metcalfe_SBET - although not my politics, he is a kind & genuine person, who worked hard for constituents. I had the honour of working with him years ago on the cross-party Justice for Visteon Pensioners campaign & he continued to give me generous careers advice
