Had the privilege of hearing Flower of Scotland at Murrayfield, always awesome.
Come on Scotland 🏴
120 years and they have never beat the All Blacks. Got a feeling, today might be the day.

I always pause before sharing images like this one from Reform because I know a lot of their political strategy is using bigotry to seek attention.
This is so belatedly anti-Semitic and racist it’s difficult to believe someone would design this, edit it, caption it and post it in 2025.

Fab couple of hours with Preston Lib Dem cllrs going through the 1st draft of our manifesto.
With Labour set to lose power in Preston next year & the Lib Dems being the only other party that can mathematically form a majority, it’s a very exciting time.
Change is coming.

Lots of debate about who will be the main challengers at the next General Election
Right now it’s 🔶 Lib Dem vs Reform ➡️ - all the rest are miles off.

After all the chaos and stress of the by-election it’s time to take this fella to the beach for the first time 🏝️
I apologise now to the people of Lytham for the shouts of “Norman!!! Don’t eat that!!”
To be fair, 40% of the population of Lytham is also called Norman…might get away with it.
