I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday.
As leaders, we must stand together and make clear Musk will face serious consequences for these actions.

For the first time ever, Queen are playing Bohemian Rhapsody with a full orchestra and chorus at the BBC Proms on Saturday.
I was lucky enough to catch up with Brian May & Roger Taylor backstage to talk about the song’s legacy. Tune in tonight to see the spine-tingling performance #proms

I hope Labour MPs are watching out very carefully for how Starmer responds to today’s rally, and are resolved to do their utmost to bring about a change of leader - however difficult - if he fails the test.
