We should build millions of these. Millions. So much of London is unremarkable and two storeys tall. We have the formula for nice looking gentle density. We’ve had it for centuries. It’s not rocket science. Build it up.

I have taken part in counter-demonstrations against the real far right. We were protesting against genuine Nazis and fascists - usually a rag bag of a few dozen skinheads doing the 'Sieg Heil'. If you think that today's march of over 150,000 was a 'far right' demonstration, you

Last night we opened the season at @rbo_org with a new production of #Tosca @AnnaNetrebko #FreddieDeTommaso #CarloBosi #OssianHuskinson #SipheKwani #AlessandroCorbelli #JakubHrůša #OliverMears 📷 ©2025 Marc Brenner

BBC News is doing a ‘Charlie Kirk Special’. My bet is that most of the country had no idea who Kirk was until he was shot dead yesterday.

Striking Tube staff on £73,000-a-year are also demanding two for one tickets to @LEGOLANDWindsor @THORPEPARK & Buckingham Palace. Thousands of hospital appts cancelled because these jokers want freebies. It's sick

My thoughts on Labour’s promise to build 1.5m net additional homes, when it was elected last summer, by August 2029. It implied an average of 300,000 a year over five years.  When Housing Minister Angela Rayner fell on her sword last week some Labour ministers praised her for

This tube strike is a pain! Buses bursting and all the green bikes are gone ..

“Florence Price composed perfectly good symphonies.” Yeah, so did Niels Gade, Joachim Raff, George Chadwick, Edmund Rubbra, Walter Piston, Nikolai Myaskovsky, Ferdinand Ries, Carl Reinecke, George Lloyd, and Felix Draeseke among others. Tell me the next time the CSO plays one.

Are any of my mutuals at RoH for Tosca tonight? First interval and am totally transfixed!!

Who STANDS with Graham Linehan please Raise your hand 🙋‍♂️ ❤️🙏

It took the last benighted Tory government 14 years to slump to a net approval rating of minus 56, which it richly deserved. But Starmer/Labour have managed to plummet to the same depths in 14 months. A breath-taking achievement. Congratulations.

When will Rachel Reeves start talking about saving money not just finding more & more ways of taking money away from people who themselves have bothered to save and work hard?

Another private school has announced it is closing down (the King Alfred School). Labour’s school tax is the greatest act of educational vandalism in our lifetimes. These schools will never come back

I’m staying in a hotel in Switzerland, just had breakfast next to an English couple with one child, probably aged 5, he ate his breakfast watching an iPad on the table in front of him. I know this topic is a dangerous one but when are people gong to wake up to how wrong this is?

Over 13,000 pupils have left private schools in the year to January - over four times the number the government estimated. It's a spiteful tax on aspiration and the one policy Labour refuses to u-turn on. Utterly indefensible

@bbcproms @classicjacko @Radio3 @GeorgiaMann @PetrocTrelawny I wonder if anyone still has their proms free gift handkerchief? Can anyone tell me which year they were handed out? I’ve looked after it well! 😂 What is @classicjacko giving out this year?

I'm losing my battle to retain the phrase "caved in" against an onslaught from Radio 4 presenters who've spent too long in America and think people have "caved". Well, I'm not caving in on this. Caving is for potholers.
