Today we were honoured to host 🇬🇧 celebration of @CERN 70th anniversary with Science Secretary @PeterKyle and the global science community.
CERN is a beacon for international scientific partnership and shows the power of physics to improve lives, from the discovery of the Higgs boson to sowing the seeds of the World Wide Web.
Congratulations on 70 years – we know the next 70 years of innovation and discovery will be just as vital for humanity.
Department for Science, Innovation and Technology@SciTechgovuk
From the World Wide Web to new cancer treatments, the breakthroughs that happen @CERN really do change the world. We're proud of 🇬🇧's role in 70 years of CERN history - and we're looking ahead to an exciting future. gov.uk/government/new…

Great comms coverage of Alcaraz/Medvedev match at #Wimbledon . Brief and pertinent comments on the shotmaking and tactics, interlaced with a smattering of wit and *plenty* of silence to let the tennis do the talking. Less is more: Bravo #Cotter #Henman #Woodbridge

@RishiSunak Well it might help if you and the other Members of Parliament raised the dialogue in the House of Commons above throwing personal abuse at each other. PMQs today was an abusive disgrace

A delightful and unusual show at the beautiful Westminster Central Hall. An hour of Tchaikovsky music and ballet in candlelight. A bit of Swan Lake will always hit the mark 🥰

Love the fact that he has been honoured but does anyone else think it should be SIR KEVIN SINFIELD? Can’t think of anyone more deserving. He has shown all of us the true meaning of friendship and raised millions for his pal and transformed awareness along the way.

Attention train travellers!
If you see an obviously disabled person standing all the way on a train journey from London please can you offer them a seat?
Because none of you did for my amputee daughter on a @TLRailUK train tonight and she is very tired.
