Today is #999Day – a chance to recognise the hard work of all our emergency services colleagues: ambulance, fire, police and search and rescue. We also celebrate those who support them behind the scenes – from 999 call handlers to the mechanics who keep all the vehicles on the road. Thank you all!

At 08:49 BST on 7 July 2005, three devices were detonated on London Underground trains at Aldgate, Edgware Road and Russell Square. Today we remember the 52 victims who died, and the scores of people who were injured and affected by those terrorist attacks.

Many thanks to @citizenaid.bsky.social for inviting me to their 'Stop The Bleed Day' event in Parliament, where I received a lesson on improvising a tourniquet. Educating people on what to do if they witness an accident is essential and I commend the charity and the organisers for the workshop.
