Every wednesday my husband cooks dinner for a group of pensioners, his dad and some of his parents pals. They are politically and financially mixed. All said they dont care about the triple lock but all want social care sorting.

Feel like I do most of my work, between 6am -8am from bed. This morning talking to Housing Minister and sorting Domestic Abuse concessions in Social Housing Bill and drafting DA proposals for probation. Productivity continues but rarely more productive than in bed oddly.

For me I find the numerous "jokes" about how the millionaire could give them personally a few quid. Really undignified begging, by people eating in Claridges.

Did not follow Arday story, when it popped up I could never get to the bottom of why it was getting so much airtime. What a terrible tragedy for him, his family & friends. Eye of the storm is close to unbearable for those of us allowed to acclimatise, unimaginable for those who face it suddenly

Everything about this case shows how the abuse of women is wallpaper, just expected part of life. He should have been remanded, he should have been considered high risk. He should have been charged in a timely manner for every offence and for god sake someone should have seen the pattern.

Look, on the one hand they allow perverts to covertly film your children and upload the footage to pedophelia forums. On the other hand, they can save someone half a second by projecting in front of them information they'd otherwise have to glance at their phone to get. What's a regulator to do?!

Didn't watch the match but woke up to hilarious family whatsapp chat between my brothers, sons and my Anglo-french nephews. Just seems joyful, and in my completely uneducated opinion the kind of thing that happens when pressure is off and some lads play a game just for fun.

Reform have now lost six by-elections in a row in England, Scotland and Wales. Their national poll rating is 26% – below Labour in 1983 – and Farage’s approval rating is -37. They’re very far from the voice of the people and need to stop being treated as such.

As one of a number of MPs who can claim Roy Hattersley as a predecessor (boundary changes) I was sad to hear todays news. I remember being under tables as a small child in meetings with him, or in campaign committee rooms where he let us go on the loud hailer. Birmingham salutes his service.

John Healey is an utterly decent man. Under his leadership of the MOD I saw real mettle on the issue of VAWG in armed forces and also his handling of the murder of Agnes Wanjiru was so far away from what their family had become accustomed to. A great man. www.gov.uk/government/n...

The ability of Grok to strip women and children was not an accident. Safeguards could have been built into the chatbot, but its creators chose not to. I'm launching this High Court claim to pursue accountability for those choices.

Just a heads up, if you find yourself 23,000th in the DVLA queue for a driving test, you don't actually have time to get dressed, put on make up and make a coffee, and will return to your phone with two minutes of your alloted 10 minutes to book the test.
