I have to tell you now that no such undertaking has been received, and that consequently Chris Philp is at war with France"

Superb political ad. One of the best you’ll see. This is better, and resonates more, than anything coming from Labour or the Tories.

An all-time classic radio moment. I don’t know who this caller was, but the lines, his delivery and timing were sheer perfection.

Hand's down Fact of the day winner.
Somewhat of a random fact: the last time Denmark sold an island to the US was in 1917. That island was Little Saint James, more commonly known today as “Epstein Island.”

This is nonsense. 1 The PM had no involvement at all 2 She pleaded guilty and lost her appeal 3 The Courts are independent of politics

Stephen Flynn, "On Brexit, everyone across the UK right now feels that Britain is broken" "And the guy who orchestrated Brexit, Nigel Farage, doesn't have to face the consequences of the economic damage that Brexit has done to the UK" "It has made us smaller, it has made us poorer" "If the Labour party want to defeat Nigel Farage they need to accept the premise that Brexit has been a disaster" "And explain to people across the UK that the only way, the best way to grow the economy is to get our public finances in a fit state, as a result of realigning our relationship with the EU"

- The bloke that stayed on holiday when Kabul fell - The bloke that painted over cartoon murals - The bloke that broke lockdown rules James O'Brien reminds listeners of the 'calibre of human beings' that were in charge at the time of the £7 billion government cover-up.

Sophy Ridge calls out President Trump's lies, "In journalism it's important reflect both sides of an argument.. But it's also important to call out statements which are untrue" "Donald Trump said Ukraine should never have started the war, that is not true, and it should be called out" "On the 24th of February 2022 Russia invaded Ukraine" "Facts matter. We have a responsibility to be clear when something is not true" "Boris Johnson says Donald Trump's statements are not intended to be historically accurate" "It seems to me, if you're trying to end a war, firstly, you have to face up to the truth of how it actually started"

Pig farms in East Anglia breached environmental regulations over 700 times in the past 7 years. It's not clear how the authorities discovered the rule-breaking; obviously someone squealed

This is Lord Rothermere the owner of the Daily Mail. He lives in a massive mansion in the English countryside, but he pays no tax here because he identifies as French. While the Daily Mail is registered in Bermuda and pays no tax anywhere. That is his ‘Patriotism’.

Sad story in The Times about 88 year old farmer, John Kemp-Welch, who works 5,000 acres of difficult hill farming land in Scotland. Fortunately, he somehow found time to be Chair of the London Stock Exchange, a stockbroker for 30 years and on the board of HSBC.
Here’s a short story about who wins and loses from the status quo of our inheritance tax rules - and about, what you might politely call ‘sub-optimal’ journalism🧵

When the Tories sold off our electricity in 1991, 5 of the ‘Big 6’ ended up in the hands of the French, German, Spanish and Swiss. Now these companies charge British consumers up to 5 times European prices in order to subsidise electricity back home.

In his Daily Mail column today, Boris Johnson claims Labour have renamed “illegal immigration” as “irregular immigration” since taking power. Except the Home Office were using that description when he was prime minister. (H/t @AdamBienkov)
