Listening to #BBCtoday. You would think Kemi Badenoch would have done some research on Robert Jenrick’s comments before turning up, wouldn’t you? It’s not enough to roll out the old ‘it was taken out of context’ defence. Good to hear Anna Foster holding her to account.

"So, the very same day free speech champion Nigel Farage denied banning critical journalists from his events, his team did exactly that. "In theory, this could be more than just painfully ironic for Farage. Evidence sessions to Congressional committees are given under oath…"

Did Farage just lie to US congress under oath?
At a hearing in DC, the leader of Reform said that he does not ban journalists from his party’s conference - just hours after his party banned The New World

#Stagecoach buses. Please sort out your app. It is hopeless. And maybe remove bus stop signs suggesting we consult app for more accurate timetable info. Or is the sign supposed to be ironic?

I see Nigel Fromage has been in the dressing up box again. #farmers . Some of us who aren’t wealthy and who don’t own land had to pay inheritance tax without any of the allowances some farmers have had. And we just sucked it up. But then I don’t have a tractor to clog up the traffic in Whitehall.

Ofwat: Water bills will rise by £94 in the next five years
The increase in bills will pay for upgrades to pipes and reservoirs that water firms argue are sorely needed - but will also go towards paying investors.

Today is the Observer’s 233rd birthday. And the first of 4 strike days. I grew up in South Wales in the shadow of the miners’ strike. Extraordinary to be joining a picket line outside what I believed was my liberal progressive news org all these years later. We’re so grateful for your support & ✊

Two friends recently woke up in hospital to find ‘Do not resuscitate’ orders on their notes. We’re all too aware that some lives aren’t valued as much as others It’s a cold November evening, and MPs are no doubt snuggled up wondering what to watch on TV…
