Just been reading the details for the Northern Powerhouse Rail proposals announced in the Kings Speech. The message for the North East seems to be “Good news, your region will be connected to the new shiny thing… eventually… by continuing to use the old railway.” #disappointed
Britain is a place where a Prime Minister who has lost his authority and who everyone hates is trying to ram through legislation (outlined in the King’s Speech) on something that no one voted for, no one needs and no one wants - digital ID. Absolutely disgraceful abuse of power.
Elmo knows there are big, exciting things ahead for you! Remember, whether you are near or far, Elmo loves you and is cheering for you every step of the way. ❤️
Surprising win for Austria. Not sure what the judges or public were voting for though as this house thought the song was 🩲 Great effort Remember Monday 👏🏻 #Eurovision2025
Happy Commonwealth Day to our brothers and sisters around the world.
Even better in a year that has seen the Commonwealth have a cultural revival on social media.

Morning @campbellclaret, currently listening to latest TRIP. Small point but polite reminder that former soldiers like @JohnnyMercerUK *are* veterans and are not “former veterans”.
Fantastic to hear my old primary school, St Helen’s, in Hartlepool get a mention in the budget today. Even if it is re-announcing a decision the previous government made in December 2022 to rebuild it. 🤔

Great effort @ineosbritannia not the result you wanted but you’ve shown that you are a massive force to be reckoned with in AC75 sailing. I’m proud as punch of everything you’ve achieved! 🫡
Every step has been in the right direction, one last step in AC38 💪🏻

It finally arrived! 😍 25th Anniversary edition of my favourite @MariahCarey album - #Rainbow25
I know what’s getting played tomorrow for my Saturday morning chill.
Well done on a fantastic performance by @hannahmills1988 and the crew of @AthenaPathway. Not the result you wanted but my God did you do brilliantly and more importantly, inspired so many girls in the sport of sailing 🇬🇧🫡 #puigamericascup
Yet another piece of Hartlepool’s wartime history quietly destroyed by an out of town developer hell bent on ploughing ahead with their unwanted development. I hope @OrstedUK are proud of themselves. #Hartlepool#pillbox#vandalism @HPoolMail @BBCTees
