'Cause there's cities and clouds in my eyes The empty streets and the raining nights Wherever the highway unwinds I'll keep coming home

Don’t forget to catch Call Kaye later, where Burnham and Jim Murphy will discuss the Nat plans to deny us all tikka masala curry. Unmissable.

Wise men once read fake news And they believed it Jackals raised their hackles You couldn't conceive it You were sleeping soundly When they dragged you from your bed And I tried to warn you about them

Viktor Orban banned pride events in Hungary, the people took it as a challenge and just had the largest pride march in their country's history.

Hearing rumours that Glastonbury has been sunny all weekend and London has another heatwave. I took three pairs of socks, three t-shirts and two pairs of shoes / trousers / pants to the Lake District for two days. Everything is soaked through. The shoes might all be ruined beyond repair.

Absolutely incredible turnout for Budapest Pride! So proud of all the organizers, including some old friends, who estimate hundreds of thousands— major embarrassment to Orban

Just walked through the car park in Tesco Carlisle twice, and not a single twat was illegally idling. Is this genuinely just a Glasgow thing? I never seen to see it in Edinburgh either (one of the many reasons I like going to the office there).

Last night was horrific tbh. Sat in a youth hostel 1/3 of the way up Helvellyn; no seats at first cause busy; rain battering against the window; WiFi dead (due to rain apparently); no way of knowing if my wean’s flight had made it past Qatar, just four days after explosions were heard above Doha.

So Starmer’s aides did know his “island of strangers” speech had echoes of Powell and are pissed off at him saying they didn’t? Am I reading this right?

You did that a few weeks ago, you fucking twat. If you know it's wrong now, you knew it was wrong then. You're just upset it backfired on you. You fucking racist twat.

Sitting on top of a hill in the Lake District, finally getting a signal again, and watching this as my child safely lands from two interesting long-haul flights. Genuinely one of the best feelings I’ve ever had. #FridayNight🥳

Well yesterday was erm interesting. Helvellyn cancelled due to weather. Hostel WiFi dead (weather). Had to climb 1/2 of Helvellyn to get one bar of “signal” with Three terror network to check my family’s flight arrived (it has). At least I climbed 2 Wainwrights? Only 212 to go. #WainwrightBagging

@athleticomince.bsky.social @bobmort.bsky.social @andydawson.bsky.social A hushed tone descends on the cavernous airport lift. The door opens. It’s Andy Burnham. “YOOOO HEARD THE MAAAN ROBEEEERT?!?” The crowd chants, first in a whisper: “…kiss the Alderman. Kiss the Alderman. KISS THE ALDERMAN!”

Just said goodbye* to my child at the airport, and it was the weird experience it usually is, plus extra stress because of This Week. 😵‍💫 (*I’m going over there in 12 days, I’m not a monster.)

Only the Labour Party can lead us through the #CostOfLivingCrisis. Under Swinney's ludicrous plans, we can't even guarantee we would be able to keep our beloved air. Yet more proof that we're Better Together.

You know how some folk clap when the plane lands and other folk get annoyed by it. Well it’s been A Long Week, and I’m going to be in a youth hostel restaurant when my family land in Dubai tomorrow night. When I see they’ve actually landed I might well have to down a pint. Soz dnt make the rulz.

Each time a remotely progressive candidate wins office in the US, the rich declare they're going to leave town. What do they actually do? Nothing. A 2016 study found only 0.04% of millionaires move in a given year due to tax increases. Rich people talk to feel important. Please properly tax them.
