IF THE PRICE OF A TRADE DEAL WITH THE US IS TRUMP TELLING US WHAT DO, WE DON’T WANT IT! We need to leave America alone right now. We shouldn’t be negotiating with Trump’s morons. What we should be doing is rejoining the SM & CU. Can we have some common sense please?

Always excited the day before one of these - but for this one, I’m also feeling quite daunted. I think we’ve nailed the line-up and there is some going to be REALLY good booze - The question is, are we up to the challenge physically…?

These women are my constituents. Gangs in their home country have threatened their lives. They're detained and due to be deported next week, because of an admin error. I've been urgently trying to get them released. The Home Office must not deport them. www.nottinghampost.com/news/notting...

Thanks so much to everyone who has shared this. Amazingly kind of you. With a bit of luck, all these books will be out of my house soon, I'll have a new publisher, this cruddy period will be firmly in my past and, most importantly of all, I'll be able to finally get down to writing my next book.

We rent our house in Catalonia to holidaymakers. I've just been told that the guest who reserved 25/5 to 1/6 has to cancel because she's been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. This saddens me. So I'm offering the week for £1050, all proceeds going to a pancreatic cancer charity. www.begurvilla.net
