Do biological males with gender recognition certificates have the right to enter women-only spaces? It's a simple yes/no question, @UKLabour. Given that you intend to make it easier for men to gain said piece of paper, women have the right to an answer.

Christopher’s first novel finally published posthumously. It’s a fascinating tale, written in Christopher, wonderfully lucid style. Survivors is a historical drama, illustrating a period of history, which covers events from the Russian revolution to world War two.

I has been 18 months since Christopher died. I am happy to announce that I finally managed to publish posthumously his first novel. Do buy a Copy! "Survivors" is a historical drama, which covers events from the Russian Revolution to World War II. amazon.co.uk/dp/1915635217?r…

I’ve found the debates quite useful in exposing the candidates’ personalities and policies. Starmer says the Tories have lost the plot. He has it precisely wrong. On the economy Rishi and Liz have given us two detailed, clashing ‘plots’. Where’s Starmer’s ‘plot’ - on anything?

So glad you’re back in action.
Well that wasn't how last night was supposed to end! Thanks everyone for the lovely messages❤️- I'm fine now - and apologies to @trussliz and @RishiSunak for cutting the debate short. Tonight I'll be unpicking the debate with some new polling from 7pm ( ...yes, sat down!)

"I am Kamala Harris, my pronouns are she and her, and I am a woman sitting at the table wearing a blue suit." Totally normal.

It was really strong, up to that point, not least because of the charm and calm of authority of @KateEMcCann. She is in all our thoughts.

Either the @TheSun or @TalkTV need to put out a statement, urgently. There is real concern about the well being of people, some we know and others we also care about...

I think your're right, Andrew. And since Chris Mason said it, it must be true.

FFS (first time I've used that abbreviation) there is no point to a debate unless it's robust and hard-hitting. Last night's Sunak v Truss was all of that, and quite illuminating too. The blue-on-blue shock horror this morning is pitiful stuff. What did they expect-love duets?

I am in France and am struck how the French hospitality and retail industries are facing the same lack of staff as in the UK. Nothing to do with Brexit, but Remainers still can’t let go, can they?

I can’t get this photo out of my head. A man is holding the hand of his 13-year-old son, killed when Russia shelled Kharkiv. The policewoman is holding the man’s hand as he prays over his son’s body. No words.

Actually isn’t it worse than backtracking? Doesn’t it directly contradict what she said in last night’s debate? Is there a whiff of pork pie?
youtu.be/m4ivErDEGAY?t=19 Couldn’t be clearer. No wonder Mordaunt is having trouble backtracking.
