An attack on any NATO member means an attack on NATO nations as a whole.

They seem wholly unable to recognise that supporting measures to widen public access to the countryside, might in fact, be a good way to win over greater public support for farming and rural matters more generally.

Asked on #Radio4 about possibly taking Thames Water back into public ownership, #badenoch says "I don't know enough of the details".

#badenoch says the job the British people have given her is to be the opposition!

Meanwhile you throw an 18 year old British schoolboy in jail for doing something that no civilised country would act upon. Mohammed should be ashamed of his grandfather who hypocritical thinks it okay to kidnap and forcibly return to home-detention, one of his own aunties.

Most accurate thing about this show? The #Met #Police never turn up at any of the multiple,loud and bloody shoot outs. The experience of most #Londoners these days -the Met's inability to respond when needed.

Portmore on northern side of Island. There's extensive seal colonies and an important bird migration stopover point with an occasionally staffed bird observatory. Trip back last year accompanied by 60-70 dolphins off the bow of the boat.

Inishtrahull is a stunningly beautiful place but I might be a little biased as my dad's family lived on the island until the twenties. Below, me and my first granddaughter on the island in 2023. Both of us East Enders born in Whitechapel, London.

Oatmilk? You mean mostly rapeseed oil and a dash (6%) of crushed oats in a manufactured Frankenfood? No thanks.

Fantastic to see you here. My only concern about leaving Twitter was missing operational updates from the UK's most important military airfield.

We used to go there as we lived five mins away in the 1960s. The steps that were wound down at low tide to access the beach were from a pre-war liner called the SS Rawalpindi. You can see a model of the Rawalpindi with her steps at the Greenwich Maritime Museum.

These brand new zero-emissions buses will run on route 358 between Crystal Palace and Orpington. With a unique charging arm and powered by pantograph technology, it charges in just six minutes. Look out for them as they’re rolled out over the coming weeks.

Fantastic,the return of London's trolleybuses in 21st Century form? I just remember them passing our window as a small kid in the very early 60s. Route 647 to London Docks which stopped in July 61 when I was 2yrs 3months old.

I remember the lady depicted in the fourth pic, as I've lived in Whitechapel for all of my 65 years. Great set of pics.

Central Line at Tower Hill? You might want to take a fresh look at the Tube Map.
