It's clear to everyone the BBC is giving Nigel Farage and Reform far too much coverage. It is dangerous and it has to stop.

Painstaking international diplomacy is not working fast enough. Last week I called for the government to take the action it should have taken long ago: sweeping trade sanctions, sanctions on Netanyahu and his entire Cabinet, and a commitment to recognise Palestine without conditions.

The BBC are constantly fawning over Farage's every move despite Reform only having four MPs. Our national broadcaster should reflect the whole country, not just one man’s ego.

The BBC must balance their political news so it doesn’t boost Nigel Farage’s dangerous, divisive politics.

The M4 is to close for a weekend in October for work on the new Badminton Road bridge. It will shut from 7pm on 10th October to 6am on 13th October so steel beams can be lifted into place.

Recognition of a Palestinian state is only part of a wider set of challenges – and it will not by itself relieve the humanitarian crisis in Gaza – but it is essential all the same. We must get this across the line when the UN General Assembly meets in two weeks’ time.

It was a genuine privilege and an honour to be able to meet with the President of Palestine, Mahmood Abbas, during his visit to the United Kingdom this week. President Abbas has been a pivotal figure in Middle East politics and in the struggle for a Palestinian homeland for decades now.

Last week, I pressured the UK government to act. To demand Israel lift their illegal aid blockade on Gaza and to sanction the Israeli cabinet complicit in it.

Yesterday, I was delighted to meet Lioness Lucy Bronze. Thanks to the Football Foundation, sites like Wincanton, Somerton, & Martock Recreation Grounds have received funding for new goalposts. Additionally, their work focuses on improving facilities for women which is vital to boost participation.

What can be done to recoup the costs of the many expected County Council by-elections caused as Reform councillors resign because a) they were ineligible, b) they had not expected to be elected, c) they no longer represent Reform etc?
Councils cannot afford this cost.

Trump has badly misjudged the Ukraine war. He and Vance behaved like playground bullies. Putin is their gang leader who steals the dinner money. Zalensky did well not to deck Trump. Being president is not a walk in the park. Long live Ukraine.

When Russia invaded Ukraine, Finland’s then-president Niinistö said that the masks had fallen.
If anyone was still clinging onto some kind of hope of Trump coming around on Ukraine, this disgrace of a press conference should make everything clear now.
Trump is anti-Ukraine. Pro-Russia.
