Some observations from this week:

I like the term 'family voting'. All families, big or small, should vote - it's especially nice if it makes Reform unhappy 🥳

BBC 2 chose Scotland for radio in the park, which is fine. I'll begin my, middle class, rain coat search next week 😂 #livemusic #Scotland

Happy memories with Cuthbert the goose. Hear the story and more with our Moments in time cards. Available soon

Its founder has said the NHS should be 'ripped up'.

Join me in calling on the government to end the dangerous Palantir contract.

The British people can’t afford for this Labour soap opera to drag on for months.

Let’s have a confidence vote now to see whether Labour MPs have any confidence in the Prime Minister, so the government can move on one way or the other and focus on the change our country needs.

Clapped put DLR trains looking good.

TfL are very quiet about issues with long-delayed new stock sitting in sidings

When Keir Starmer made Peter Mandelson his US Ambassador – even after his Epstein links were well known – did he think at all about Epstein's victims?

Bought a black turtleneck jumper the other day, thought it was cute. Wore it to the parents for dinner. Sidenote: I wear round specs and had my hair back in a ponytail. Walked in the door, my dad goes "fuck me, who invited Steve Jobs?" It's going straight to the charity shop.
