Good morning ☀️ I’m looking at Saturday’s newspapers with @LeahBoleto and @indiamctaggart. Join us on Sky News at 7:45 and 8:45 🗞️

RT @AngelaRayner: Honoured to meet Zelda Perkins, whose powerful campaigning with @cbmsilence has been vital in highlighting misuse of NDAs….

RT @albieamankona: Another wonderful evening at the Savile with the legendary @Jo_Coburn as well as @tomhfh @benjaminbutter @CalumAM & @Cam….

I recently spent a week backpacking across Taliban-controlled Afghanistan. I’ve visited many of the world’s dangerous countries, and this one was quite something. I’ve shared the story over on instagram - the link is in my bio if you want to see what happened.

Thank you for all the thoughtful comments in recent days. I really appreciate it. I am back to work for the first time tonight reviewing Sunday’s newspapers on @SkyNews. On until midnight.

RT @SkyNews: What's on Sunday's front pages? 📰. @SkyGillian takes a first look at tomorrow's top stories with journalist @benjaminbutter an….

I did not know my dad had died for a day, as I have been travelling Afghanistan for the last week. I was with my guide, Ezatullah, when I got the news. He truly looked after me. Talking to me, buying me tea and biscuits. His family prayed for my father that night. Our worlds

My dad, Gareth Neil Butterworth, died on Sunday. He died of liver failure, alone, hours from his 62nd birthday. My dad was a heroin addict for 40 years. I did not think I would be heartbroken at his death. But I am. Addiction stole his life.

RT @OBR_UK: The triple lock has cost around 3x more than expected. In our central projection, the triple lock explains 1.6pts of the 2.7%….

Jones specialises in moralising about everyone else, but is completely unable to admit it on his own ‘side’. This is the expose this bully deserved.

This response is actually incredibly revealing. Rather than recognise the problem, the TfL boss’s first reaction was to make (farcical) excuses to justify the status quo. It’s exactly this stalemate attitude that is how we have such inefficient and unacceptable public services.

The pull factor for Channel immigrants is how easy it is to work illegally in Britain. ID cards would cripple that black market.

It appears Soho institution Balans Cafe has closed down. If this is due to business viability, then it raises serious questions about Westminster Council’s refusal to allow outdoor dining during summer.

It’s 2am and it’s 2 hot.

RT @RobbieRinder: At Glastonbury yesterday, a band called for “inshallah, from the river to the sea.” The crowd cheered. When I hear that p….

If the Ku Klux Klan released a rap anthem, the BBC wouldn’t broadcast it just because they walked on stage at Glastonbury. Bosses have questions to answer over Bob Vylan.

RT @thecarolemalone: Come join us @gbnews news with @benleo444 @benjaminbutter and @JakeBerry.

The BBC has commented for the first time on the Bob Vylan broadcast - admitting it was wrong to broadcast the performance. “With hindsight we should have pulled the stream during the performance. We regret this did not happen”
