I had the same thought - retire the #20. RIP Diogo. Thinking of his family, not least his brother, and team mates of every description today. Devastating, breathtaking news. #YNWA

We should be thanking you and the people of 🇺🇦 for your astonishing bravery in the face of aggression and bullying behaviour. Stay strong @ZelenskyyUa 🇬🇧
Thank you America, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. Thank you @POTUS, Congress, and the American people.
Ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that.

Haven’t watched for a few weeks, but that was a good episode of #BBCQT helped by a good panel (even Jacob added to it). Thoughtful not shouty on very complex issues.

You have a seat in the @HouseofCommons - I suggest you use that rather than the social media bull pit if you want to be taken seriously & ask legitimate questions

Congrats @ichoosemag @TomCullen on the big 500. Another great edition with a superb summary of Brum's cultural creds to kick off the special edition.

Compare and contrast the speeches of Jeremy Hunt (graceful) and Dame (Dame!) Andrea Jenkyns (graceless). Just about sums up the gulf in the Tory party. #Elections2024

5 July 2024 4.42am. The moment Rishi Sunak publicly concedes defeat. A moment #Elections2024

From @ShippersUnbound Sunday newsletter.... Just one plea: vote. It is less than 200 years since the Great Reform Act which extended the franchise, not much more than a century since women were allowed to vote.

People did literally die for the right to put a cross in a box, and in some parts of the world they still do. Vote for something, vote against something, turn up and scrawl obscenities on your ballot paper. Be warned: if you do, people will still try to discern what you wanted.

The Lib Dems once got a vote because someone wrote “w*****” in every box apart from theirs. Take part and then you can complain when promises remain undelivered, hope is diminished and mistakes are made, as they surely will be. But whatever you want, go and be a part of it.

Virtually every military intervention we’ve carried out has happened at night, partly to keep our servicemen & women safe.
The British people will wonder who would be standing in for Starmer between 6pm & 9am – Angela Rayner, David Lammy, Ed Miliband?
Defending Britain's security isn't a daylight hours only job.

I’ve can’t bite my tongue any longer. Please hand your social media accounts to a grown up before handing Government to some people who might take it more seriously #Election2024

Keir Starmer has said he'd clock off work at 6pm if he became Prime Minister.
You deserve better than a part-time Prime Minister.
The only way to prevent this is to vote Conservative on Thursday.
Community note
Keir Starmer’s wife is Jewish and they are bringing up their 2 children in the Jewish faith. Friday night (Shabbat) is an important time for Jewish families.
Sir Keir has already spoke about this and would aim to protect this time whenever possible.

Very sad to hear this. An exceptional public servant who I had the pleasure to meet a couple of times. A great figure with a lasting legacy of local leadership. #RIP Sir Howard Bernstein.

Sorry to read of the death of Sir Howard Bernstein. He was a visionary public servant - the City Chief Exec that all other City Chief execs looked up to. With Richard Leese he helped make modern Manchester the Global powerhouse it is today. My thoughts are with his family and many friends.
