At this time of ever widening divides in our society we need to try to work together to find common ground. I’m confident that, now more than ever, the residents of Queen’s Park and Maida Vale do not share the values of Lee Anderson and David Starkey https://t.co/80SihGcKej

I repeat my call for a humanitarian ceasefire in the Middle East, the unconditional release of all hostages, and the delivery of life-saving supplies at the scale needed. Everyone must assume their responsibilities. This is a moment of truth. History will judge us all.

Prime minister boasts about scrapping stuff that wasn’t happening. Absolutely astonishing
We will never impose unnecessary and heavy-handed measures on you, the British people. We will still meet our international commitments and hit Net Zero by 2050.
