Party to celebrate Ian Hislop's 40 years as editor of Private Eye & 65 years at the magazine. Has anyone currently in public life held the same job for longer? The Eye is the greatest journalistic institution of my lifetime. Long may Ian and the Eye reign.

Why is the @BBCNews calling the Gen Z protests the Gen ‘Zee’ protests? We are in the UK and they are our broadcaster. It’s ‘Zed’. ‘Zed’ is how we pronounce it here. I thank you. 😊

Odd watching 4 people on @BBCNewsnight all probs sitting next to each other in Birmingham at the Conservative conference - including their own political editor. Did they not think of sending Victoria up there? Or letting Nick do that part of the show? 4 cameras + london studio.

Water is still gushing late tonight from the leak at Church Road and Sheen Road. No website update from @thameswater - despite low pressure and even no water at all in nearby parts of Richmond.

Comedy palate cleanser. Robert Jenrick about to grandstand but reminded of his defection from one party to another this year is gold. The timing. First line great. Second line superb but crowd not recovered from the first to fully appreciate it 😊

THAT'S IT. THE UK HAS COLLAPSED. WE'RE DOOMED. Unilever has just sold the 124-year-old brand #Marmite ... to an American company.

Today is the 33rd anniversary of the day the IRA bombed Warrington town centre and killed my son Tim and 3 yr old Johnathan Ball. Words can never describe how losing a child leaves a huge hole in your heart and your family. Eternal love Tim ❤️❤️

In the 1960s Harold Wilson @UKLabour Prime Minister wisely refused request to send British troops to Vietnam made by US Democrat President Lyndon Johnson. See: historytoday.com/archive/bri…. Keir_Starmer is right now to reject UK offensive support for the US/Israel attack on Iran.
