Just a heads up, if you find yourself 23,000th in the DVLA queue for a driving test, you don't actually have time to get dressed, put on make up and make a coffee, and will return to your phone with two minutes of your alloted 10 minutes to book the test.

As a millennial with adult children myself, I'm here to say you are in for a treat. Adult children are better.

A man genuinely came up to me on the street and said the Fabians were part of a new world order of control. Baffling that they can fit it in between pamphlets on prison reform.

It's a small thing to have a gripe about this morning but to all newscasters, the NEC is NOT in Birmingham!

Not at all, just been poorly/busy and not online. X

Good luck to those getting results today it's my annual opportunity to say that on my A-level results day I met Victoria Beckham and Dane Bowers. So hope all have memorable experiences today!

Ozzy Osbourne was so proud of where he came from, and in return we were proud of him. Having met him and all of Black Sabbath it was always like talking to your Brummie uncle, kind, sarcastic, warm.

This is from the book I wrote about Zelda Perkins and others in 2019. It finally came to pass. @zeldaperkins.bsky.social

UK bosses to be banned from using NDAs to cover up misconduct at work Exclusive: Changes to workers’ rights bill will prohibit the silencing of staff who suffer harassment or discrimination

This is Zelda's law. For over 5 years she has tirelessly campaigned. She is my hero and it's been an honour to work with her. www.theguardian.com/la w/2025/jul/07/uk-bosses-to-be-banned-using-ndas-cover-up-misconduct-work?CMP=share_btn_url

I want Kartal to win, but that was mad unfair and any win now seems like it will be marred. Bring back the line judges.

DCLG for me, have only updated since I worked in the same building as it and walk past the sign everyday.

When my second son was born a similar thing happened but on a slightly more geopolitically important moment, the election of Barack Obama.

My son is 20 tomorrow and am reminded of midwives who let my husband stay beyond the visiting time, pulled the curtain round and let us watch Eurovision together on the ward, 20 years ago.

I once smashed a Gameboy against my head because of intensity of Tetris so I relate.

Not in Birmingham we say mom and I should know because it's my name.

My son is voting Estonia, I've just rejoined him after a aptly themed Swedish dinner.

I like Eurovision as much as the next superfan however I think it making the news delayed and frankly spreading from Saturday is a bit much.

"Fair is foul, and foul is fair". Good luck to everyone taking their first GCSE today, I will miss my son's random Macbeth pronouncements while undertaking mundane household jobs after today. "Out brief candle".

Paddy O'Connell has nailed this VE day commentary.

My mate Jules convinced my mate Jess that Sue Ryder was Grooverider's mom. Nothing funnier will ever happen. Ever!
