@EurostarUK #Eurostar what’s happening? Horrendous queues why not warn us that the trains are delayed! Looks like this has been going on a while! Where is the text messaging servicie and pre/ advisory travel information?

'There are serious issues at stake in this general election, and the Tories have just released nonsense figures with fake attribution and given it to newspapers who took it on trust. I’m really not sure that this will help their chances very much.'

If Cameron does become Foreign Secretary on the eve of COP28 it's worth recalling he talked a good game on climate, helped drive coal off the UK grid, and pushed for an ambitious deal at the Paris Summit. And then blocked renewables development and slashed efficiency funding.

Do watch this. Even now, I can’t quite believe what has become of Britain in such a short period. We have a Republican Trump loving party in government.
'The most successful, most dynamic, no nonsense news station, and the defenders of free speech'.
Watch the moment @pritipatel passionately defended GB News to rapturous applause this evening at the Conservative Democratic Organisation gala dinner.
Just finished this amazing book, Matresence, by Lucy Jones. I cried, laughed, winced and harrumphed in recognition and agreement. A diatribe, a tour de force, a gift.
Great piece by Geoff Mann in current edition of @LRB on climate change and uncertainty. Informative and measured but also an urgent call for a change of approach: lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v45/n17/…
