"Just because you’ve got a flag in your van and you scream at people in the street doesn’t make you a patriot." Chancellor Rachel Reeves tells Channel 4 News' Economics Editor Helia Ebrahimi that being a patriot is about "loving this country and treating other people with respect", after being heckled during a previous interview.

Andy Burnham has NEVER done a proper day’s work in his entire life. Cambridge posh boy → straight from uni into researcher gigs, spad, union pen-pusher, Football Task Force pencil-pusher… then parachuted into a safe seat at 31. A lifetime on the taxpayer-funded political gravy train: MP, Cabinet Minister, Mayor. Zero real jobs. Zero trades. Zero private sector graft. Just endless Westminster/Labour insider games. He’s a charlatan and is using Makerfield, like a one-night-stand! Makerfield rejects this out-of-touch careerist.

Valet parking at the hotel $60 a night, car park is $35. So I park on the street and get a $20 a day fine to save money. Makes sense right?

'Er indoors is the hardest worker in town. When she's very tired, she forgets the names of things. Today's attempt to name something came out as 'summer pie'. Any guesses what she meant?

No. This is why you must ALWAYS do a last minute inspection before exchange. So many sellers pull this last minute shenanigans and if they do, you have to adjust the price accordingly. Mickey-takers.

The Met Office is set to issue an AMBER heat alert later today. 😱 If you’re over 40, you’ll probably know this as “a nice sunny day.” ☀️

As the first Black Lord Chancellor, I’m determined to widen opportunity, break down barriers, and ensure talent, not background, determines success. A judiciary that reflects modern Britain is a stronger judiciary. theguardian.com/law/2026/may/2…

I know you like to keep abreast of my adventures so today I have excelled myself. I’ve come to Woodbridge in Suffolk to spend a few days on my sailing boat that I bought a few weeks ago. Packed loads of stuff. Bought a secondhand dinghy from the local boat sales place here, rowed out to my boat and the dinghy started sinking. Slowly at first and then boom, it was gone and me and all of my stuff were in the water. I had my very heavy backpack on. The duvet managed to wrap itself around my left arm and body and was pulling me down. At this point I thought I was going to drown. I managed to somehow free myself from it and swim to my sailing boat and reach up and cling on. Anyone who knows boats however, knows that you cannot pull yourself up out of the water. So there I was clinging on to my boat, backpack still on and wondering how long it would be before my arms gave way and things got even worse. Well, the world’s most wonderful bloke in a rib saw me and sped over. He got my backpack off and I got into his boat. He saved my life. Back on dry land and I assessed the damage. My Fujifilm xpro3 is deceased. Totally filled with water. Various other electronic items are destroyed. That involuntary swim has cost me thousands of pounds and no, there is no insurance I can claim from. I’ve lost it. The dinghy should never have been sold. If I’d had more experience I’d probably have realised that before getting in it. At least he’s refunded me the purchase price! So I’m sat in soaking wet clothes in the sunshine outside a pub now. I’ve booked a hotel and I’m going to have a glass of wine. Or two. Or three and reflect on an exciting Thursday. Just not exciting in the way I’d hoped. P.s. I’m sure there are those who will wonder whether I made parts of this story up. Well I didn’t. It’s exactly as I’ve told it. It was actually worse than I’ve told it. So I’m poorer and somewhat fed up about that. Anyway, cheers 🥂

We know that families are still feeling the cost of living pressure, so we’re delivering immediate support. Free bus travel for children this August and action to cut the cost of everyday food. Helping families get through the holidays and putting money back into people’s pockets.

The war in Iran is pushing up prices at the pump, so we're stepping in. We are extending the 5p fuel duty cut until the end of the year- keeping costs lower for millions of drivers. We have the right economic plan to protect households and build a stronger Britain.
