The thing about the Celebrity Traitors leak is that it isn’t in the interest of anyone to find out who happens early. Everyone wants to find it out at the same time.

Sources are telling us the Reform announcement at the Royal Welsh Show is in relation to a 'sitting politician'.

It’s always good to learn new things about yourself. For instance- tonight I learnt I cannot cook anything close to an edible pancake. Burnt, undercooked, too fat, too thin. It’s been a smorgasbord of culinary failures. Bon appétit!

I’m seeing a lot of nonsense about how ‘Zelenskyy misread Trump’ last Friday.

Let’s be clear - Trump misread Zelenskyy. He thought he would be submissive, subservient and would crack under pressure to sign the deal.

The client journalist and Vance’s hand grenade were evidence.

A reminder that this is the same administration that was last week lecturing the UK about "free speech"

In other words: welcome crackpots, conspiracy theorists and client journalists!

🚨Breaking: Keir Starmer reiterates his support for Volodymyr Zelenskyy as Ukraine’s “democratically elected leader”

It follows Donald Trump’s baseless claim he is a “dictator”

No 10 readout from a call between the two leaders this evening:

Remarkably (given the city's dominance of Welsh politics), if Kevin Brennan is given a peerage then he would be the first former Cardiff MP to join the Lords since Jim Callaghan in 1987.

Whisper it, but it would also mean the First Minister & her senior SpAd were both Peers #devolution #senedd

Keir Starmer is planning to award peerages imminently to:

1] ex chief of staff Sue Gray

2] former Labour MPs Lyn Brown, Kevin Brennan & Julie Elliott

3] Thangam Debbonaire, ex shadow culture secretary who lost her Bristol West seat to the Green party at the election

Starmer plans peerages for ex-MPs whose exit made way for party favourites
PM’s ‘political list’ said to be long even as he axes 92 hereditary peers to trim the size of the Lords
