Just came through Heathrow with wife and children. We all have the same last name (Grant) on our passports. Immigration officer engages my children in chit chat then whispers to them “Are these your Mum and Dad?” . Intrusive, insulting and creepy.

Dear Hacked Off supporters, please see below if you haven’t already.
Britain's press is misleading the public, intruding into peoples' lives, and abusing ordinary people. In opposition Labour promised to act. Tell @Keir_Starmer : yes, standing up to Murdoch is hard, but it's the right thing to do. Write to your MP now:

Bullshit. The last time I worked for a Murdoch owned company was in 1994. Which was long before I knew anything about his papers’ methods. Since then I have turned down every single job offer emanating from a Murdoch owned company.
REMINDER: Hugh Grant took many millions of pounds from Rupert Murdoch to make movies for him. #hypocrite.

And this.
It would be premature of Will Lewis, CEO of @washingtonpost, to feel relief at this result since Tom Watson says a dossier has been sent to the police. If it's anything like Prince Harry's skeleton argument it will raise troubling questions. .

Massive thanks to the Golden Globes for so warmly welcoming a blatant gate crasher. Also to Scott Beck and Bryan Woods for spotting my need to kill, and to A24 for sponsoring it.

Steady on. I do remember meeting a charming RHNY in a restaurant, but I’d like to stress it was about 15 years ago. I don’t recall shots or kissing but her memory might be better than mine.

Please read this. It's literally been 8 years in the writing. The first wave of tech disruption of democracy 2016-2024 is over. What starts now is something much, much worse: the age of information chaos. 1/.

Sometimes when I go to events my wife comes with me. If the @MailOnline get hold of pictures they put it on their website and hundreds of comments tear my wife to pieces. She’s never thrust herself forward or courted attention in any way. I don’t know if the comments are real.
