On @lbc.co.uk from 7: if Rachel Reeves raises income tax she’ll break a manifesto pledge but what’s a manifesto pledge worth these days? Plus has the National Curriculum taken the joy out of learning? And toxic voyeurism - why do 1m people follow a fake Madelaine McCann? 0345 6060973 x

On @lbc.co.uk from 7: reaction to last night’s mass train stabbing in Cambridgeshire that’s left 9 people fighting for life. Plus is progressive left on the rise not just here but across Europe? And should UK follow USA and hit super rich with an exit tax when they flee this country? 0345 6060973

From 7 @lbc.co.uk: should public anger at Andrew be assuaged now Charles has stripped him of his titles? Is Andrew episode beginning of end of British royal family or do roots of that go back further, Diana or Edward 8th? And has the immigration crisis been manufactured? If so by whom? 0345 6060973

@lbc.co.uk from 7am: do drug check facilities where users test their powders and pills make a mockery of drug laws? Do we wait years to train up workers of the future or import more foreigners? And hands up who wants a referendum on the monarchy? 🙏 0345 6070973 x

@lbc.co.uk from 7am: Trump’s dithering over supplying Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine continues - is he right to refuse? Are fewer affordable homes the answer to the housing crisis as Labour seems to think? And Prince Andrew stripped of titles but still no apology to his loyal subjects? 0345 6060973

Off to Cornwall to tick off my penultimate 60th bday treat - fishing for minnows. Not to kill 😖 but to tag 4 science 🤓 18 months of waiting 4 this date, skipper now happy with weather (he was thinking of cancelling!) If you know anything about tuna they could really do without us eating them x

Speedometer off bike for calibration (every point is precious these days) but otherwise all good, running like a (very fast!) half-Swiss watch

@lbc.co.uk from 7: are skools controlled by Marxists who teach kids to hate Britain or is Farage peddling nonsense again? As conference season closes pollsters predict a future of coalition governments. And as fans bade Ricky Hatton farewell, we’ll reflect on UK’s mental health crisis 0345 6060973
