Sad to learn we have lost the great Judith Chalmers OBE.
For three decades as travel horizons expanded, she guided us around the world on ITV’s Wish You Were Here.
An absolute joy in real life as much as on screen.
Thoughts with Judith's family and friends

The good news you’re not hearing enough about 👇👇
Darren Jones MP@darrenpjones
It's not everything, and there's more to do. But in government, delivery matters.

@BBCNewsnight @nicholaswatt It’s your job to stay impartial though and not just get angry because he won’t give all the credit to the Tories. Used to think you were pretty good - not lately. Also all RW media journalists on the panel?

"This is a part of the problem... that when there's clearly things to celebrate, that efforts are made to not celebrate them."
"It's not our job to celebrate."
Labour's Mike Tapp and @nicholaswatt discuss media coverage of the fall in net migration numbers.

@bigeorgeuk @paulmasonnews No more Brits are not leaving - look at clarification from The Home Office. Less Brits have been leaving. Maybe stop getting all your news from RW journalists.
English

@paulmasonnews Yes NET migration, which to put in to terms even you can understand means
More Brits are leaving and taking their tax with them,

This is exactly the kind of rebuttal to disinformation that needs to happen every day of the week 💥🇬🇧
Home Office@ukhomeoffice
Net migration has fallen by 82% since its peak. Some are claiming that emigration is the reason - but it isn't.

@v_hwly @GammonGazette @ZiaYusufUK Why no detail on your account - I don’t engage with people who don’t give any idea of their identity.

@ClaireCoutinho This is a flat out lie. We are not lifting sanctions on Russian oil

@KemiBadenoch @RussellFindlay1 @ScotTories Yes but you got this wrong yesterday which has been explained and proved - you would do better to apologise.
English

1,000 jobs are lost in our North Sea oil and gas sector every month, as a direct result of Labour's ban on new drilling licences.
It's an act of national self-harm that will harm Aberdeen’s and Britain's economic future.
@RussellFindlay1 and I agree - this cannot go on.

@jennyrenb @GammonGazette @ZiaYusufUK No, she is a harmful SNOB, she is a huge embarrassment to the country and people who voted for her- representing working class people and not having a shred of empathy and respect for problems of working class people and their everyday struggles!

The Guardian: “Net migration down by three-quarters, the biggest fall in NHS waiting lists for 17 years, knife crime cut by 10%, the economy growing the fastest in the G7, rising wages, energy bills and petrol prices held down, the biggest sustained rise in defence spending since the cold war, a massive expansion of free childcare …
If Keir Starmer did tub-thumping lists of Labour’s achievements in the style of Gordon Brown, he would not actually have a shortage of things to talk about.”
During the two years of Labour government, following fourteen years of Tory mismanagement, there have actually been significant improvements in Britain. Why does the Tory media not report them?

Busy couple of days for Starmer’s Gov. the media is too busy making up the news to bring you this news. Knife crime down, record completions for new Homes, business investment and overhauling youth justice.

@RhonddaBryant @JohnCleese Please get your comms right Chris - it’s time to get clear messages across - Labour are doing great things so let’s make sure the public hear it loud and clear.
English

This is a flat out lie. We haven’t lifted Russian sanctions. In fact we’re introducing the sanctions you failed and refused to introduce
Andrew Griffith MP@griffitha
Lifting Russian sanctions is an immoral decision. All whilst Labour refuse to use our own North Sea oil and gas resources. The British people have backed Ukraine since the invasion. This terrible Government are now selling them out.

At the General Election we pledged to bring down net migration.
Following reforms in our Immigration White Paper last Spring, it has now fallen 82% from the peak under the Tories.
We promised a fair, controlled and managed migration system, and that is what we are delivering.
Yvette Cooper@YvetteCooperMP
Under the Tories overseas recruitment shot up while UK training was cut - a failed free-market experiment which quadrupled net migration in 4years. Tomorrow’s White Paper will restore control to the immigration system, bring down net migration & boost skills & training in the UK

@JamesCleverly Your leader got it wrong yesterday at PMQs didn’t she - now outlined by Tory loving Peston and others - is she going to apologise ?
English

@Peston Gosh well done Robert for seeking out the truth for once - could knock me down with a feather - please keep it up.
English

I have found the new Russian sanctions law and the PM and trade minister Bryant are correct that the permission to import Russian jet fuel and diesel refined in a third country is a waiver from new sanctions. Tory leader Badenoch was barking up wrong tree, it seems. But maybe that is understandable to a degree because the government’s communication on this was confusing, to put it kindly
