@weratedogs.com I apologise for the poor cinematography- I was trying to shield the phone from the sun - but here’s Marley living his best, if slightly bemused, life in his paddling pool. Actually his sister Órla thought it was hers but possession is of course nine tenths of the law!

Well played Neil Coyle, more of this kind of thing please Labour MPs!
Letter from Neil Coyle MP to Nigel Farage pointing out his many shortcomings and the hypocrisy of holding his unveiling of defector Zahawi in the ‘crime ridden hellhole’ of London rather than his own constituency- which is Clacton in case he’s forgotten.

Saw this at Waddesdon, the Rothschilds’s county pile. Letter from Balfour in 1917 re. a Jewish homeland that the UK government would support “it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done that may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine”.

So moved by Kiri Pritchard-McLean on Radio4 just now talking about the challenges and joys of fostering kids. Brilliant and inspiring, exactly the positive attitude we need in these crappy times. Well done Kiri!

Just finished watching Conclave, excellent movie, very informative and seemed entirely fitting for today. Hope the outcome of the real conclave is similarly enlightened!
