Had me 1. #physio session today, on the kitchen table. Dealt with it like a pro, slept through most of it. #Archie measured, massaged, lasered, supple, kneadable and lissom. #SaturdayVibes #dogsoBlueSky #dogspa #dog #pamperday #paws

Me newest toy - some people thought it was me when I posted a photo of it on Twitter. It's a wobbly #mammoth. Hudad says 'good morning Archie' when he walks past it. Clearly, his eye sight is not great. #Archie, not a mammoth. #dogs #dogsofbluesky #paws

The UK needs to lead in Europe again. We can't rely on Trump, and Labour hasn't shown the urgency or ambition to fix our relationship with our closest neighbours.

A UK-EU customs union is the first step repairing that relationship.
