This is a great podcast. Delighted to be part of it
The Beatles were not only a musical phenomenon they were a cultural and historical phenomenon. The great @StuartMaconie talks to me about his new book looking at the lives of the people around them

This was such fun to do
Like so many of us @StuartMaconie watched Get Back and became fascinated with the people around the Beatles who contributed to their story, like the lovely Mal Evans. My dad was an accountant who worked for a while for Apple but he’s not in Stuart’s book

I seem to remember rather a lot of coffins being unloaded at Wootton Bassett during that war we never fought
Bad news for Starmer and Macron. Vance confirms the only US security guarantee in Ukraine will be the mineral deal. He also plays down British & French peacekeeping troops as “20k troops from some random country that hasn’t fought a war in 30 or 40 years”. https://t.co/6bujpsjygX

National Trust family membership costs £14.05 a month. A daily telegraph subscription costs £104 a month. And don’t even get me started on what you get for your money in each case…
A misleading headline. This figure refers to LIFETIME membership of the National Trust, for a whole family, and it should say so. Ordinary family membership still costs around the same as one takeaway coffee a week.

I met with President Zelenskyy before his meeting with Trump and Vance. As always, he expressed his gratitude for America's support for the people of Ukraine. He has something Trump will never have or understand: courage and principle. Every American should be outraged⬇️

Donald Trump is betraying our legacy of defending our allies against tyranny. Since the President clearly won’t do his job, In Congress, we damn well better do ours.
