They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.

I think this is the closest many of us have ever got to seeing the real Trump. The only consistent thread in his entire unhinged rant was the love & praise for Vladimir Putin. Zelensky has more courage & dignity in his little finger than every member of Trump's regime & fan club combined.

The Labour government says it has delivered over two million extra NHS appointments - including for chemotherapy, radiotherapy, endoscopy, and diagnostic tests -seven months early.

This gov has got many things wrong, but in this crucial area it appears to be making real progress.

Channel 4 have also just announced a show called Virgin Island, a new reality show where they put virgins on an island.

Even by Badenoch's sewage-level standards, this is POOR.

What you are seeing this morning over the refugee decision is Labour alienating and offending its remaining liberal supporters without bringing any new voters onside.

Reminder that Trump can commit virtually any crime as president right now and be protected by the Supreme Court's immunity decision. No incentive to follow the law - he can openly tell people to violate it and promise to pardon them from federal charges.

Really concerned to hear the Prince Charles Cinema is under threat due to its lease arrangements.

The Prince Charles Cinema is a much loved cultural space for Londoners.

I will be writing to Criterion urging them to meet with me and PCC to reconsider.
