Spare a thought for the emergency services and hospital staff on duty tonight and tomorrow, through the revelry. They do so much and most of us never see it, or hope we don't.

Every year, people mock this tree. But I love it anyway.

Rob Reiner was a genius. He brought joy to this world, and in decades to come, people will still be laughing, crying, and quoting along to his incredible oeuvre.

Donald Trump is a nobody. History will remember him as a villain and a nasty, dim-witted, unloved one at that.

So surprised to hear that Farage is a racist, antisemitic twat-now awaiting further investigations into the Pope’s religious affiliation and ursine activity in forested areas.

We are now at the stage where all those who knew him in the past have warned us that Nigel Farage is unfit to be PM. About the same stage as when those who knew him in the past warned us that Boris Johnson was unfit to be PM.

If the government can celebrate scaring a critic off TV, the punchline writes itself — and it’s from 1933.

Millions spent on Trump visit. Red carpets, Royals in coronets and golden dining services too. And all he offers in return are petulant racist insults about our capital city and our mayor.

What a singular lack of decorum, grace, and courtesy. Fuck him and his damp hands and his nicotine yellow wig

Anyone watching the press conference. God - Trump is waffling . He's already dissed Biden, lied about the seven wars and is wittering on about trillions. How anyone could think this is a man is capable to run a bath - let alone a country is beyond me.

Off to do a school governor walk around and, as I prep, I am reminded that school senior leadership teams deal with absolutely every aspect of education, running a large business and social work. They work incredibly hard.

Two things can be true at once. Rayner was foolish in her conduct and right to resign. It’s also true she was always despised by much of the right wing press because she was a working class powerful woman.

Day in, day out, I speak to ordinary people who are organising to welcome the asylum seekers accommodated in their towns.

They befriend, support them, reach out to them as fellow human beings.

That's the Britain I know, the one I see around me & we never get told about on TV.
