Had a brilliant time at @WalesHigh taking part in the interview of sixth form students. It is a great privilege to be part of this evening again & the students are an absolute credit to the school.

It's a little known fact that Richard Gere's dad, Gottler, was a famous Swedish ventriloquist. Who knew?

Sorry, but it’s not good enough when you have done everything you can to help someone when they are really struggling & then they ghost you as soon as they are ok. 😡#wontbotheragain

One of my great pleasures is working at my old school @WalesHigh on A level results day. To see the young people being rewarded for their hard work & moving onto the next stage of their lives is fantastic.

The last of “The Few” who saved the UK from invasion in 1940. Our debt to them can never be repaid so we must ensure we never forget. Per Ardua ad Astra.

We're saddened to learn of the passing of John 'Paddy' Hemingway DFC, the last surviving fighter pilot of the #BattleOfBritain.
His legacy serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by the WW2 generation.
Our thoughts today are with his loved ones 💙
