@easyJet you are the worst airline out there. 5 hrs. Pregnant. Waiting in an airport. You cancelled the flight 40 mins before it took off. A disgrace. Never ever again. And all this to go back to Scotland. Fury doesn’t cover it.

Big news over on my IG! We’re thrilled to launch our Artist-in-Residence Programme with @The_Dot_Project ! This summer–autumn, Elveden Hall, Kelvedon Hall & Belvoir Castle become creative hubs for artists Heath & Tais Wae, Jack Penny & David Matthew King. Stay tuned!

Had NO idea @LNER could just discretionarily scrap weekend upgrades because there are “no seats for walk-ins”… when 40+ first class seats are clearly free?! Feels shady…

@RupertLowe10 Well said.

I truly despise what the incompetent and spiteful British establishment has done to our country, I really do. Not too long ago, we knew who we were - confident, assertive, optimistic, unafraid, calm, funny! Now? The joy has been sucked away, replaced by this dour pessimism and boring hate for anything that made Britain so great. I don't want that, and I don't think the vast majority of Brits do either. Watching Trump and the Americans today, it's honestly made more determined than ever to restore what we had. I don't particularly care if we're liked by the rest of the world, I care if we're respected. Because right now, we're a joke, and have been for some time. Learn from Trump - let's be unapologetically patriotic. Slash tax across the board, enforce the border, deport those with no right to be here, accept biological reality, fight back against woke, bulldoze nonsensical foreign aid, eradicate DEI, deliver sensible infrastructure, carpet bomb public sector waste, and plenty more... I love Britain. I really do. We've got the best people in the world. We need a Government that will put us first, protect our interests and get the hell out of our way. The Americans have given the West a lifeline. We need to grab it with both hands. Britain's relentless decline, under numerous inept and pathetic governments, comes to an end at the next election.

I love London, I have lived here my whole life and I am immensely sad to be writing this. In the last week I have seen 4 phone thefts and tonight had my phone stolen by a bike gang for the 2nd time. I pay $2M in taxes per year, the lawlessness is off the charts, the entrepreneurs have left, the taxes are higher than ever. London is sadly falling.

Thank you @Historic_Houses @HistoricEngland @HolkhamEstate @violet_manners @HeritageXplore @WMGrowth @Jess4Lowestoft @SteveTheQuip for sharing your first hand experiences to boost tourism across the country @VisitEnglandBiz @VisitBritainBiz

@elonmusk please amplify this heartbreaking story: a British farmer took his own life following @RachelReevesMP budget announcement last Wednesday. This crisis is real. Help spread the word and sign the petition—every voice counts. campaigns.nfuonline.com/page/160300/pe…
