BREAKING: Music legend Bruce Springsteen just released this incredible song that will be sure to piss Trump off beyond belief. “Streets of Minneapolis”. He wrote this song about Alex Pretti and Renée Good Saturday and recorded it yesterday. Share it far and wide and play it as loud as you can

Donald Trump is trying to stoke a civil war in America. What he's doing in Minneapolis is a disgrace. What @DHSgov is doing is disgusting. Terrorizing our communities and posting white supremacy memes cannot be normalized.

It's not 9, how many birds are there then?

We've always known that Generation X is a unique breed. Listen to this guy explain it perfectly—it all makes complete sense. We now live in a world that feels completely foreign compared to the way we were raised.

@TDesborough My total favorite- that brilliant “look” could challenge Paddington Bear

Alan Carr may be the star, but I'm so glad Celebrity Traitors has allowed Joe Marler to show the nation what a wonderful man he is. He deserves every benefit being on this show will bring him. #CelebrityTraitors

Diane Keaton, Oscar-winning star of Woody Allen’s Annie Hall and beloved Father of the Bride actress, has died at 79.

Diane Keaton has left us and I can’t tell you how profoundly sad that makes me. I adored her — idolized her. She was a very special person and an incredibly gifted actor, who made each of her roles unforgettable. Her light will continue to shine through the art she leaves behind. Godspeed, Diane. My heart goes out to her family and to each of us grieving this heartbreaking loss.

RIP Diane Keaton - a cultural moment x

@VVFriedman Exactly. And the best collections are women who design for women.

And yet another creative director change: Casey Cadwallader has left Mugler, and Miguel Castro Freitas joins. That makes — 11? 12? — new designers at heritage brands this year. And only two of them women.

@DanielPriestley I’ve known about this bizarre procurement process for decades. Has anyone given any sensible reason why this is allowed to continue?

Want a fun example of how giving the government your money is stupid? The NHS pays £8.50 for generic paracetamol that you can buy at Tesco for 39p. It pays £6.50 for Ibuprofen. Imagine a commercial business negotiating a contract and agreeing to buy a million units of something for 2000% of retail cost. Now think about how many times your've heard 'The government paid £90M for an IT system recommended by a Big consulting firm but the costs ran over and it cost them £150M and still doesn't work". I guarantee you that the IT system they bought would have cost £2.5M if it were bought by a business - and it would have worked. Any time people tell you that you should be paying higher taxes, tell them they need their head read. Tax puts money into the hands of the most incompetent, unaccountable and wasteful organisation on earth. Taxes are the breaks on the economy. Every high tax economy is going to shit and low tax economies are roaring ahead. dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/…

Had to be said..

Just proves that a whole category of fabric can be totally reinvented. There’s still room for fresh innovation.

@PearsonVUE your customer service link is not working. Please can you let know how best to contact someone on your team regarding booking the TMUA exam?

@DeborahMeaden Soooooo DULL. I bet the power point presentation looked brilliant though.

Olympic opening ceremony… well?

I love stoicism and Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. The simplicity of the 4 pillars... 1. Wisdom - know what to go after. 2. Courage - go after it. 3. Justice - treat others fairly while you going after it. 4. Temperance - know when you should stop going after something.

@the16stories Nope

Does your family read your writing?
