It’s New Years Eve - a time for change. But be kind to yourself- if you can’t change it then let it go. Easy to say, hard to do , but essential for your mental health. I give YOU the authority!

If ever I needed your help it is now. The government is not placing any importance on extending the power to hold virtual meetings. I need you to tell me and your MP why this is important. Local democracy is the foundation of our society and virtual meetings make that happen.

It is so upsetting that people believe the embarrassing cost of the Cheshire east council investigation is centred around ‘that’ meeting it is not. The behaviour of those three councillors over 18 months is what generated the cost.

It's essential to be able to continue to hold virtual meetings. They improve accessibility to local democracy from all walks of life. We risk local government being paralysed. I support Mumsnet's campaign for urgent legislation to allow local councils to keep this option.

In a teaser released by CBS, Ms Winfrey tells Meghan and Harry their experiences as royals sounded "almost unsurvivable." Hands up anyone willing to give it a go, or better still which of us is willing to do a life/job swop? ps can I have 'those' earrings?
