The name #BarBoia @Boia_Nit is synonymous with the village of #Cadaqués. Its closure due to “The Shores Law” is incomprehensible - it will be much missed.

Let’s all make it our New Year’s resolution to pick up the phone & call rather than text our friends!

Looking forward to meeting South Suffolk farmers in Westminster tomorrow - I’ll keep fighting for them against the #FamilyFarmTax & alongside @NFUPolitical
'It will be devastating.'
Tory MP @jcartlidgemp tells @NickFerrariLBC that he 'strongly opposes' Labour's decision to raise inheritance tax, adding it will be 'damaging for British Farming'.
Wise words @Philippa_Perry. All guilty but feel the young need to be encouraged (taught?)to interact & communicate verbally as opposed to messaging (esp those in same room!) & becoming fearful of making phone calls.
Trump may be lazy @gerardtbaker but his appetite for self-aggrandisement coupled with respect & admiration for Putin, Kim Jong-un even seemingly Hitler + his determination not to listen to advisors makes him indeed a very, very dangerous person for US & rest of the free world.
What bit do these parents not get, encouraging kids to vape? Teenager recently passed out at own party, parents thought drunk, couldn’t rouse next morning. Blood tests @ A&E confirmed her vape had been tampered with drugs! That’s how dealers are making them so addictive
✍️ Latest with @nicolawoolcock as we tackled just how prevalent vaping is in schools. There have been cases of parents passing vapes through school gates and many more shocking revelations in @thetimes
Worth reading to enable the “amateur lawyer” understand how the judicial system works & the clear guidelines that were adhered to.
Incredible opportunity for 6 of our budding East Anglian playwrights who form part of new HighTide Writer’s Group, to be supported & mentored by leading playwrights: Alice Birch, Jez Butterworth, Lolita Chakrabarti, Dennis Kelly, Anoushka Lucas & Winsome Pinnock.
ICYMI: Jerusalem writer Jez Butterworth and Hamnet playwright Lolita Chakrabarti (@Lolitachakra) are among the industry leaders set to mentor @_HighTide_’s inaugural Writers Group.

Keir Starmer’s had a rocky start & losing public faith but now needs to take a grip. Let’s hope Morgan McSweeney can stabilise the party & enable them to get on with fulfilling its many electoral promises.
Increased frequency of these tragic stabbings esp involving young & in broad daylight of grave national concern. Should be No 1 priority for Government, Police & Social Services to resolve.

Alarming, sickening, dispiriting.
How have models gone “beyond size 0..so thin as to be skeletal..like an erasure of women”? If leading fashion editors are shocked & despairing shouldn’t designers eg Stella McCartney & Balenciaga consider responsibility to industry & young?
Anna Murphy was shocked by the models on the Paris catwalks this week. Are we back to promoting unhealthy body images again? ⬇️ thetimes.com/life-style/fash…
Totally scandalous.
Most mothers need to return to work after 6-9 months mat leave & majority have little option other than finding a nursery & one they can 100%trust.
Government plans for 3,000 new nurseries - where do they think they’ll get the (qualified) staff from?
NEW Nurseries need to be safe for a functioning society say parents of Genevieve, nine months old, killed at a nursery in Stockport. And always put babies to sleep on their backs @thetimes @LullabyTrust thetimes.com/uk/society/arti…
Scandalous, heartbreaking nightmare of a story about tragic impact of cladding scandal on Amanda Walker & affecting countless others. Government must step in before other innocent lives are lost. @Lees_Martina
Wonderful @channel5_tv doc on the indeed Marvellous Maggie Smith is a fitting tribute to the incredible, outstanding, unique Dame Maggie Smith. Her devotion to her acting, remarkable lifetime achievements & ferocious wit & timing beautifully portrayed

Brilliant tv! Crime series with a real difference. Excellent cast, great script & loved the humour. Thoroughly recommend. @RealDMitchell #Ludwig
The new detective show I'm in, #Ludwig, starts today. It's on @BBCOne at 9pm. Below is a trailer made the right shape for you to view on your phone! If this isn't enough to persuade you to watch, tune into @BBCTheOneShow or @BBCFrontRow later and I'll persuade you some more.
