After ten years at the paper, today was my last day as The Standard’s Celebrity Correspondent. Bloody loved it, but now it’s time for pastures new. I’m still on mat leave until 2025, but watch this space for what comes next. Over and out. 🤘🏼

@LNER hello, I’m impacted by the disruption in Peterborough/Grantham. If I travel tomorrow, can I get on any time train or peak/off peak?

What a picture. Skin from Skunk Anansie receiving her OBE for services to music from King Charles at Buck Palace today.

29th December 2022.  Vivienne Westwood died today, peacefully and surrounded by her family, in Clapham, South London. The world needs people like Vivienne to make a change for the better.

EXCL: Tory peer Michelle Mone secretly received £29m from profits of PPE business awarded large government contracts after she recommended it to ministers - incredible investigative journalism from @david_conn theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/n…

This is what happens if you let Therese Coffey dole out large quantities of prescription drugs

The BBC local radio interviews of the PM this morning demonstrate the value of having journalists who didn't go to the same schools, or don't mix in the same social circles, as the politicians they should be holding to account.

What the PM thought she was getting: Soft interviews from local radio. What she actually got: Real representation of ordinary people from presenters who don’t care if no10 never gives them an interview ever again. Beautiful stuff. Long live local radio.

Imagine handing £150bn to British businesses and people in a single year in energy subsidies and tax cuts - the biggest giveaway in history - and then seeing your party’s popularity sink 33 points below Labour’s. Wow.

I'm genuinely speechless

This is...quite extraordinary:

The Conservative Party: putting the N into cuts since 1834.

'...and the cheese stayed on the table!' Brilliant tribute to the Queen by former Prime Minister Theresa May...

Christ.
