Love that we’ve gone from… Disgraced Foreign Secretary can fly on a taxpayer-funded, Kardashian-style private jet To Prime Minister can’t watch his team play football in a box that costs the taxpayer nothing.

Interesting. Labour's new climate envoy Rachel Kyte is co-chair of climate advisory board of Quadrature Climate Foundation, linked to Quadrature hedge fund based in the Cayman Islands which invests in fossil fuel firms. Quadrature gave Labour £4m on 28 May, at the start of the

The tide has turned and augurs well for @Conservatives to retake control of @CityWestminster in 2026. Congratulations to @VoteTimBarnes and thank you to all the leadership candidates who came to give their support @JamesCleverly @KemiBadenoch @TomTugendhat @RobertJenrick

Dear @MayorofLondon , I tried replying to your post of images about #OxfordStreet but your team have turned off replies, likely because of the large number of those criticising the idea, but a bad look when you are already ignoring past discussions and views from local people.

@HowardDLeigh I thought about that long and hard for almost precisely the reasons you give. I also made behind the scenes representations with others about accountability. But the Perry thing is too much.

Makes no sense. If you have concerns put them in your column. In the JC . This is a bad move leading to polarisation . As it leads to only left wing journos at the Guardian and right wing at the Telegraph . The JC offers the left a platform they should take it

This Winter, please help the son of a toolmaker find clothes for his family. Every Louis Vuitton bag donated will go to a vulnerable wife. 🙏🏽

For the avoidance of doubt, neither me nor my wife have ever accepted clothes, glasses , new or second hand from any Party donor...OK a bottle of wine occasionally, but that's it. Is @KiarStarmer that desperate ( and that cheap) to have his wardrobe paid for?

True. The police were at the heart of the corruption. They leaned on Channel 4 in 2004 when I was chair to not transmit a film on the subject - to preserve ‘race relations’.

Mark Zuckerberg—who recently purchased a $300 million, 387-foot megayacht, powered by four gigantic diesel engines—tells us about the importance of "stopping climate change before we destroy the planet". 🤡
