Aitch 💙

@Fitz90MARK Yes I have. msaitch@bluesky

@aitch764 I’m already there H. Have you rowed there too?

Today’s stroll in the town of the crooked spire 😁

@nedboulting I would opt for Shrewsbury to avoid any offence.

@MarianKeyes And Vito is wearing Gorka's trousers

Well at times he looked a bit Dick Van Dyke cor blimey in that Paso. Not a 10 no way #Strictly

@polcurrency @edballs Time one of you owned up to the mess you made.

🎙️ NEW episode of Political Currency 🎁 How Labour made a political scandal worse 💸 Can Reeves meet her fiscal rules without a return to austerity? ⚠️ Is the conflict in the Middle East contained? 🎧 LISTEN NOW: tr.ee/pc

@sullivansa1 @MimiJ9 @lewis_goodall And is she so honourable that she will stand for reelection as an independent?

@lewis_goodall Yet she couldn't be arsed to vote on the winter fuel allowance in Parliament when she had the opportunity to do so. Her resignation letter is nothing more than smoke & mirrors. Duffield only cares about Duffield

NEW: Canterbury MP Rosie Duffield resigns the Labour whip. She writes to Keir Starmer: “The sleaze, nepotism and apparent avarice are off the scale. I am so ashamed of what you and your inner circle have done to tarnish and humiliate our once proud party.”

@BethRigby @HarrietHarman And of course this is so important to still be discussing. COVID enquiry anyone?

NEW: @HarrietHarman thinks Starmer should give up his current arrangements for watching football & instead watch on TV. Argues in the ED pod that perceived conflicts of interest could be a prob and No 10 need to get ahead of it. Full episode out tomorrow

Is this baking or sculpture ? First episode? where do we go from here #GGBO

@JBBoardman No not even you could.

@aitch764 I could make it work

I'm sorry but a pink backwards cap just wouldn't cut it. @JBBoardman

@BethRigby You just really don't like a Labour government do you.

ANALYSIS: 80 days into a landslide win, PM’s speech should have been a victory lap, but instead he finds himself wrong-footed over rows over freebies & infighting. “Change begins” the message, but PM struggling to demonstrate culture change he promised news.sky.com/story/starmer-…

@Fitz90MARK Cycling racing snakes 🐍😂😂😂

Trail exploring & off piste. 1st ride since the Tri & nice change not being ‘hunted down’ by cycling racing snakes 🤣

@polcurrency @edballs The same NHS that your mate George helped break?

🎙️ NEW episode of Political Currency 🚑 Can Starmer really fix the NHS? 🎤 Will Swifties propel Harris to victory? 🇫🇷 Will Michel Barnier be friend or foe? 🎧 LISTEN NOW: tr.ee/pc

@JimSanderson19 @nedboulting Lucky dip would be my advice!

@nedboulting I'm new to the Pod after seeing you in Kelso on Monday, what would be your recommendations on listening to back episodes. Cheers.

@oconnorjustin13 @edballs @grantshapps Both. Chummy regular chat with Osbourne is bad enough.

@aitch764 @edballs @grantshapps which of the two?

Big thanks to @grantshapps - in his first post-election interview/conversation we discuss life post-politics (at least for now, have a listen), how Prime Ministers deal with crises (who is Grant’s top pick?), whether Ukraine needs to sue for peace (Grant disputes the JD Vance analysis) - plus @George_Osborne and I discuss ‘Political Summers’ - all in this week’s Political Currency..

@edballs Presumably you will chat with Farage now his riots are over?

After our recording this morning..

@edballs Shame

@ElliottBlackwe3 Middlemarch

Louisa May Alcott wrote, “Some books are so familiar that reading them is like being home again.” What's a book that, when you read it, makes you feel like being home again?
