Architectural prizes shouldn't be awarded till 10 years after buildings open - then ask folk who use, maintain & operate it how successful it is. I work in a shiny building that won prizes 10 yrs ago & it's a maintenance nightmare with no storage that costs fortune to run

I have many criticisms of Sunak and the Conservatives but we should all reflect that they have shown no hesitation in accepting the will of the people nor any hint of questioning its legitimacy. Citizens of other nations look on enviously.
Rishi Sunak@RishiSunak

I have given this job my all. But you have sent a clear message, and yours is the only judgement that matters. This is a difficult day, but I leave this job honoured to have been Prime Minister of the best country in the world. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

I do wish the BBC would stop calling the prime minister’s wife “Lady Victoria”. That’s not the form. She’s just Victoria, or “Lady Starmer”. He got a knighthood from his job, he wasn’t born an aristocrat, which seems quite an important distinction for a Labour leader.

Respect to Jeremy Hunt, who held his seat (just) but is out as Chancellor: this is a decent speech

There is something paradoxically satisfying about the UK general election being on July 4th and the US presidential election being on November 5th.

@greateranglia Absolutely appalling treatment of passengers on 2H48 LST-CBG today. Most stops cancelled without announcement, taken all the way to CBG without even being told, no help on arrival there. Had bad days on trains before but never treated so poorly. Heads should roll🤬

I don't know who Milo is talking about here, but since he has expressed pride in British culture, here are the ways in which his outfit violates British traditions. 🧵

If you don’t like living in English-speaking countries wearing English clothes eating English food with English manners, customs, systems of government and culture all around, have you considered not losing to us over and over again for hundreds of years? Just a thought

pet peeve: when someone finds a pattern that holds for english, spanish, and one other Indo-European language and they think they’ve discovered the holy grail of linguistic universals

Jesus, who’d be a politician. Absolutely relentless personal attacks, all for a timetabling decision for which he has clearly apologised and which he almost certainly didn’t make himself anyway. I don’t agree with this man politically, but really feel for him here.

The national service nonsense does give me the opportunity to tweet one of my favourite recent bits of polling when Ipsos actually ran the famous "Yes Minister" questions as a randomised experiment, and showed that it worked.
