Adored Stephanie Cole since discovering the second series of Tenko in the early 80s. Could break your heart in drama then kill you with her superb timing in comedy. One of our greats, and should've been a DBE. Vale.

To me, the most eye-opening bit of this recent Reform scandal is that these knobheads literally say that the reason they need foreign money is because British people won’t support them.

Just looked at tickets to see Pride at the Bridge Theatre. Cheapest non-restricted seat are £76.50 and some seats at that price are restricted. I don’t think I’ll bother.

When the Gatlinburg Wildfires happened in 2016, Dolly gave impacted families $1,000/month to help them get back on their feet. This included my father-in-law, who lost everything in the fire. Dolly gave children in TN free books each month, from birth to the age of five. She was a goddamn saint.

‘To her gay and trans fans, I want you to know that she loved you. You know that without me telling you.’ - from Jane Fonda’s tribute to her friend and comrade Dolly Parton.

An extract from Jane Fonda’s tribute to her friend and colleague Dolly Parton:
To her gay and trans fans, I want you to know that she loved you. You know that without me telling you. And you know she doesn’t want y’all to mourn now. Dress up and celebrate her spirit. But first watch the final episode of Grace and Frankie where she’s an Angel, the head honcho working class angel in Heaven.
RIP, beautiful woman. We love you.

There needs to be a change in the procedure: if you resign as an MP for a certain area, you should be illegible to then run for reelection in the immediate by-election.

Farage is NOT in "the establishment": he's a man of the people despite being • son of a stockbroker • privately educated • a city stockbroker • an (often absent) MEP for 20 years • a mostly absent MP • has a TV show • and 5 properties • is a gold bullion spokesman • accepts £5m from a chum

A good father supports his children emotionally. When Hunter Biden was dealing with addiction issues and became a political liability to his dad, Joe Biden provided love, encouragement, and support. Donald Trump couldn’t even be bothered to go to Don Jr's wedding. #FathersDay

Very sad to learn if the passing of Josephine Blake, a great musical theatre performer who rose to fame in the 60s in Sweet Charity, before “retiring” when she married Dick Emery. After his death, and an absence of about 15 years, she returned to the stage in the 80s. A true star.

I was just remembering that Farage didn't hold any surgeries in Clacton for months (I mean, does he now?) citing the fact that he was very vulnerable because gov't had not given him enough public money to keep safe. But it now turns out that he had already pocketed £5m for security. Hmm. 🤔

Sky News projecting a national vote share for Reform of 27%, based on results so far. That’s four points down on what they achieved in local elections last year. Somewhat of a counter to the prevailing narrative. More evidence that Reform appears to have peaked.
