Are Americans getting ‘Trump fatigue’, or do they want more? My take on the latest from his trial in New York 👇

Boycotting a tea brand because a politician you disagree with drinks it? He also breathes air, are you going to boycott that too? 🤷🏻♂️
So it's been a rough weekend.
On Friday, the Chancellor shared a photo of our tea. Politicians do that sometimes (Jeremy Corbyn did it in 2017). We weren't asked or involved - and we said so the same day. Lots of people got angry with us all the same.

Fantastic video from

. His story is Londons's story 👍
I was a youth worker for over twenty years.
So I’ve seen London’s problems — and I’ve seen London’s potential.
I know that together we can make London safer, greener and more affordable.
That’s why I’m standing for Mayor.
Take a look at my video for more.

Gutted that Dybala deal is off. Just when it looked like Levy was showing ambition to take Spurs to next level. I suspect Juve will sell Mandzukic to Man Utd and therefore want to keep Dybala around 😢

@SpursWomen
Yes, possibly. But the likelihood is that the new stadium is going to be fully sold-out until well into the season. This will give non-season ticket holders a chance to get into the new stadium, as well as providing a boost to the women's team. I think Spurs have missed a trick.

This is a lovely message. Glad he’s alright 👍
It is hard to find the words to express my debt to the NHS for saving my life.
The efforts of millions of people across this country to stay home are worth it. Together we will overcome this challenge, as we have overcome so many challenges in the past.

This is the article that made me subscribe to
@TheAthleticUK
. Well worth a read 👇👇
20 years since Daniel Levy took over as chairman of Spurs. Wrote this profile of Levy last summer, looking at his rise to the chairmanship in his 30s, the state of the club he inherited, how the club is now worth 25x what it was back then, and what next.

It is astonishing how many times the Labour Party have overlooked a highly capable woman for leadership.
One day Labour are going to bite the bullet and realise someone like Jess Phillips might just be the person to reshape the political narrative in their favour, rather than yet another identikit white, middle-class, liberal man from North London.

The Welsh parliament is sitting. Scottish parliament is sitting. It should be PMQs today but PM is in hiding & the Qs are simply being ignored. Because they can be. A stage-managed press conference fronted by Gove - Gove! - cannot stand in for democratic accountability

For years, Labour have been tabling superfluous amendments for things that are already covered in legislation elsewhere. They only do this to spread fake stories and say “look, the nasty Tories voted against XYZ”. The reality is much different.
Erasmus+ participation is protected under the Withdrawal Agreement and we are open to participation in the new Erasmus successor programme from 2021- this will be part of future relationship negotiations with the EU once the scheme has been finalised

Billionaire philanthropists like Bill Gates and Warren Buffet have done more to eradicate poverty than Corbyn’s twisted and dangerous policies ever could
There are 150 billionaires in the UK while 14 million people live in poverty.
In a fair society there would be no billionaires and no one would live in poverty.
