Just Sir Gavin Williamson CBE, Minister without Portfolio - having a total meltdown on not getting invited to HM Queen funeral

Factory International has evolved out of the groundbreaking Manchester International Festival so our roots run deep. We're proud of our home city and we'll be investing heavily in jobs and skills to give Mancunians more opportunities to shine. Take the journey with us.

BREAKING: Donald Trump's personal library was destroyed in the FBI raid of Mar-a-Lago. Both books are sadly beyond repair, and he hadn't even finished coloring one in yet.

Honoured to have helped make this happen. What a beautiful group of creative people. Congratulations to the ever-inspiring @lemnsissay and @KazGabay and to all involved.
Please Share a beautiful setting for gorgeous people. on a hot day in July. It was a dream of mine and Karen Gabay's (@KazGabay ) to take a photo with 150 diverse creatives at @TheJohnRylands in MCR. Shot taken by Priti Shikotra. Thanks @MIFestival and all participants. LOVE.

Last night I read a poem to Little Amal then held her hand and introduced her to 5,000 people at Castlefield Bowl. It was beautiful @badly_drawn_boy sang to her with the intimacy of a true artist. Thank you @MIFestival

This could be your daughter, your sister, your girlfriend, your colleague, your friend. Like most of us, she is fearful and frustrated because women don’t feel safe on our streets. And then this...

Announcement on the Tiers tomorrow now ? How could you ever think this is right @BorisJohnson ? Have you any idea what chaos you are causing ? Why did London get notification ahead of plan ( not that it was helpful for London ) but the rest have to wait an extra day? Joke!
