Bristol ❤️
What it’s all about 🙏💙 Adam who has autism was on his own at his first ever festival and was embraced by a group of friends for the next three days. He told his dad it was the best weekend of his life

If Keir Starmer does resign, history will look back on his reign and scratch its head as to why the hell he was so hated.
On paper, he's probably delivered more to working British people in such a short time than any PM for decades.
After inheriting an absolute mess: NHS waiting lists fallen. Worker's rights improved. Rail operators nationalised. Improved relations with EU and improved UK's global reputation. Removed non-dom tax status. Halved childcare costs. Boosted state pensions. Lowest homicide rate in 50 years. Lifted 550k children out of poverty. Immigration vastly reduced.
We are in the age of billionaire funded misinformation, whose sole purpose is to topple democratically elected leaders, and insert leadership that favours the wealthy elites over the working people. Looks like the game plan is working...

I will never walk away from the mandate I was given.
I will never walk away from the people I'm fighting for.
I will never walk away from the country I love.
Great news - congrats @helengt76

I am deeply honoured to have been appointed to the House of Lords by the Prime Minister & His Majesty The King.
A huge thank you to my family, friends, and team for all their support over many years.
Looking forward to doing my best to do good with this incredible opportunity.

I'm delighted that future generation of Bristolians will be able to benefit from the new protection given to *checks notes* Broadmead Baptist Church?!
Broadmead Baptist Church sits at the heart of Bristol’s Broadmead shopping centre.
This striking Brutalist church is known locally as the ‘church above the shops’, with retail on the ground floor and church facilities above.

A privilege to be at my first COP29 as the UK’s Climate Minister. Action is now more important than ever.
Recent and tragic events in Spain have shown again that nothing is more central to the UK’s national interest than delivering global progress on tackling climate change.
Discovered a new reason I hate Daylight Savings - now being harassed by this guy calling for breakfast an extra hour before the alarm goes
