Unbelievably sad having to say goodbye to Darrell this week. Taken far too soon. Honoured that today @sarcomauk.bsky.social have offered me a London Marathon place-running in his memory,for a cause that mattered deeply to him. Grateful for any donations www.justgiving.com/page/tom-bru...

Sad if true. #MattSmith will always be my doctor. But #NcutiGatwa is a great actor who has done wonders to revive a series that had been declining in quality for years. #DoctorWho

Imagine being one of the richest men on the planet. And you take power with the express desire to make things worse for some of the poorest people on the planet. There's a word for that. #Trump #Haiti

This is excellent. Closer ties to Europe are key to economic recovery. And cultural exchanges broaden horizons, minds, and society. #EU #Brexit

Absolutely correct. Between #Trump and #Putin, two empires are preparing to carve up #Ukraine for themselves and call it a peace deal.

Tone it down. Give your resources to America. Give your land to Russia. Roll over and play ball. Sure. #Ukraine

Investment in the #arts is badly needed after 14 years of cultural vandalism under the #Tories. I welcome this bold move from the #Labour government. The arts enrich lives and all society. They are a top priority for #Hounslow as we look to forge our new 10-year Culture Strategy.

Stick #NigelFarage on there too. If #Trump sold America out to #Putin, #Reform is planning to do the same to Britain.

This is absolutely good economics. No one gets themselves out of a hole by digging downwards. Tory #austerity destroyed the economy. We need to invest to grow. #TorstenBell

Pretending American foreign policy makes the US the good guys on the world stage is to forget Iraq and Vietnam and a history of warfare, imperialism and support for dictators when it serves. But under Trump, America has given up even pretending. #Ukraine #Putin #Trump

If Britain stands with Europe to secure a just peace for #Ukraine in the face of both Russian and American aggression, #KeirStarmer will be the most popular prime minister of our time.

#Hounslow already has some of the best #library access in Britain. In the face of 14 years of punishing #austerity from the #Tory government, we not only kept all our #libraries open but enhanced them. I'm proud to announce our latest suite of improvements today.

I'm pleased to see the Government publish their consultation about Great British Railways. Bringing our railways back into public ownership is much welcome & as Chair of Transport Committee I look forward to continuing to scrutinise these plans. 1/2 www.gov.uk/government/c...
