#RNLI Making music this Saturday to achieve £20k target for two epic fundraisers, Helen & Arthur Graham

“Dear Diary, Super excited to say that I’ll be serving my Clacton constituents today by flying to Mar-a-Lago to meet Donald Trump and to undermine the UK government. God I love being a patriot!”

Hope Lord Collingwood had his sunnies on this morning 😎

Opening of huge new Newcastle entertainment venue delayed as major update given - www.chroniclelive.co.uk/whats-on/wha... Re matters orchestral and ambition - didn't know about this; another large auditorium that needs to be filled (better get music back on the curriculum, pronto)

"To call the BBC “100% fake news” and its journalists “corrupt” looks, on the face of it, defamatory. The reputational damage must be immense, if unchallenged" Alec Hamilton Cheltenham, Gloucestershire

BBC News - Trump threatens BBC with legal action over Panorama speech edit www.bbc.com/news/article... I sincerely hope that The Mayor of London issues a counter claim re Crime & Sharia Law in London. It's the only action

Happy World Pasta Day to all those who celebrate.

So why not "level things up" by the introduction of an internet sales or delivery tax, to remove the price advantage?

So why is it not written into an MPs contract, the number of hours they must work on parliamentary & constituency business in order to receive their remuneration? Make all MPs ss accountable as all those in work who they are there to serve

Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

youtu.be/rfUEstWJUkA?... This is the flash mob video i was sent by my cousin, who asked what I thought ... Answer 1 Strange that barely any of the performers would not have been alive when the original hit the airwaves in 1975. How much of today's music will get flash mobbed in 2075🤔

Michelin Starred "Half Time Pies" at The Stadium of Light..... Real Premier, nay Champions, League Catering? 🤔

"Traveling without a ticket is THEFT!" wails a poster on this EMR train. Whereas operating a deliberately obscure and overcomplicated ticket system that encourages people to overpay is...fine?

www.theguardian.com/money/2025/s... Does this outcome actually prove that the owners of the company were in fact "dickheads" 🤔

Nigel Farage uses private company to pay less tax on £400,000 GB News earnings. Poor attendance record in parliament, collects £94,000 salary+expenses. Has used a trust fund in an offshore tax haven. Previously described people who try to avoid tax as the “common enemy”.

If this is true then I, like many (???), did not know this detail. Nor am I unaware of discussions or any debate on this matter. Why is that not happening? 🤔

www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a... Please tell me that nobody is surprised by this ..... Care to revisit the "scores on the doors" oh orange doyen of dealmakers? 🤔

Encouragingly, no bus stop replacements evident 🤪

Thanks to gdpr, all our info is safe up there 🥸

I don't know which is more incredulous That Putin tells Trump, that he (Putin) would not have gone to war if Trump had been in power in 2022 or That Trump is so gullible to actually believe it ....

Just trying to scare WRs comments; "I always want in life to be challenged......." with " ......apart from when everything was wrong" (including grammar) So it wasn't on him, just the timing of his arrival??? 🤔 and @bbcsport give him a job as a pundit? 😡 @bbcsport

Ahhhh Tannochbrae (Callendar)

Putin was never going to concede anything - and now the sanctions are off the table.

www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a... So much for "walking away" if there isn't a deal to be done! Trump has been "played" again - conceded on sanctions & meanwhile the war (Donald claimed he would stop in 24hours) escalates. Why does Europe not "call him out?" 🤔

youtu.be/NA1eWba5ZCE?... I had never heard this before last Friday, when it was sung as the final piece in a lunchtime concert by The St Endellion Festival Chorus. They stood in a circle, around the audience. Don't think I have ever been so moved by a work on one performance. Spellbinding.

#fingerpostfriday Now with replacement final 👍

#fingerpostfriday Photographed last year, not in situ at the moment. Awaiting restoration? 🤞

Much more atmospheric,in my opinion, than an mobile phone screen illuminating a face.

That pun even brings me out in hives 😏

On the Lucy Letby case, MD writes: the conclusion of the UK’s most senior neonatologist on last weekend’s ITV documentary was clear. You don’t need to invent a murderer, or methods of murder, to explain how these babies died. MD's latest on the Lucy Letby case, only in the new Private Eye, out now.

Sad to hear that they have ceased to 🐝
