‘My neighbour's garden leaps to life with her latest exhibition of drying clothes.’ I got this chapbook after hearing the author read these lines. 😀 @DitheringChaps @HelenKay166 #WritingCommunity #ValentinesDay

OMG - just unbelievable - it really shouldn’t be a difficult question. What on earth has happened to the Labour Party, to international law and frankly to any kind of moral compass? Such craven cowardice is deeply dangerous

If Donald Trump moves on Greenland will you condemn it? “We’re not going to give a running commentary” “You can't say Donald Trump shouldn't invade Greenland?” “Diplomacy is delicate, which means we're not here to give a running commentary in the news”

Before selling off allotments @AngelaRayner should think again. The 1925 Allotment Act was designed to provide green space for people without gardens to grow their own affordable fruit & vegetables. For many people,they also provide an important outlet for physical & mental health & community friendships. It’s a bad shortsighted policy which should be reversed.
