IMPORTANT: the adverts on your videos on YouTube today are promoting Reform UK, completely at odds with your politics.

Your dad was an amazing guy who taught me so much with his books, including empathy, humility and humanity. It is a shame Kemi didn't learn these things too.

Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

I think you're trying to give "Boris, The Lying Toerag" a run for its money this year!

It's not the town council. It is Derbyshire County Council. The new 'Reform UK' councillors are banning rainbow flags in all civic buildings now they have control of the council.

Thank you, Patsy.

I miss him like mad. We're in Orkney for the anniversary of his passing. Scary to think it's been 9 years.

I do like church bells though, but most use communion wine, not whisky.

Sounds like you've been through a lot. So much I don't know about you and @cuboom.bsky.social but the more I find out, the more I want to give you both hugs (and a gravy bone for cub).

Stand tall
Stand proud
Stand together

Well done
