It's the biggest television event of the year tonight: Yes, that's right, #OnlyConnect is back with a new, even longer series! Kicking off tonight, and one of the questions is mine. 8 PM, BBC Two

Bringing back freedom of movement would be breaking a promise... but getting rid of it in the first place wasn't?????

Trader Joe's is also Aldi! You've fallen for their trap!

Hope they’re finally replacing the oak

A radical career change for the former home secretary

We’ve seen the Mayor of a major US city clash with their own Police Academy before* and only tragedy** came from it. *Police Academy 6: City Under Seige **Police Academy 7: Mission to Moscow

This is what 1C2S actually meant all allong: HK may do Halloween stuff, Shanghai may not.

Since his ennoblement in Boris Johnson’s 2023 resignation list, Tees Valley regional mayor Lord (Ben) Houchen has claimed more than £25,000 in tax-free daily “attendance” allowances from the House of Lords for 73 days when he hasn’t voted, spoken or performed any recorded parliamentary activity.
