From Harry's family: Very sadly Harry died suddenly early on Friday morning. It's so hard to believe his energy and sense of fun are gone. Many of you will have known him for his strong opinions and humour on here. He'll be greatly missed by family, friends and colleagues.

Ahead of Germany assuming 6 month rotating EU presidency, Angela Merkel told the Bundestag the #coronavirus “revealed how fragile the European project still is”. She called for "cohesion and solidarity” and for a Recovery Fund for hardest hit economies to be agreed this summer
Steffen Seibert@RegSprecherStS

Sich für eine nachhaltige Entwicklung in allen Regionen Europas einzusetzen, ist auch ein Instrument gegen Populisten und Radikale – Kanzlerin #Merkel in der #Regierungserklärung zur am 1.7. beginnenden Ratspräsidentschaft Deutschlands.

That generation never talked about the war. I interviewed Denis Healey three times. Never once did he mention he was the beach master for the British assault on Anzio, a bloody but vital moment. Only those who didn’t fight in the war - weren’t even born then - drone on about it.

I once had to drive Dame Vera to the White Cliffs of Dover because , believe it or not, she had never been. Lovely woman and quite a day. #DameVeraLynn

Great line from Lib Dem Wendy Chamberlain on the DFID merger turning the PM’s own words against him - she says UK aid is “not some cashpoint in the sky - we will look to the £900,000 plane makeover for that”

President Trump has been raging about NFL football players taking a knee for almost the entirety of his time in office. I do not understand how Britain's *Foreign* Secretary is unaware of the context here ("Game of Thrones"). Hiding from American friends when that headline hits

I went into the business because I like meeting people and every so often you could make a difference. Just chatted to an old friend who says most applicants “just want to be on telly” That’s not what it’s about
Brian Ferguson@brianjaffa

I genuinely can't think of anything I'd rather do, or could do! I don't think I've ever tried to put anyone off & probably never would. If you can work on things you're interested in, and speak to people who are passionate about what they do, every day it makes a huge difference.

The Belgian parliament is to discuss a Truth Commission into the country's colonial role in The Congo. There have been calls for statues of King Leopold II, who established a private colony in The Congo in the 19th century, to be removed from towns and cities across Belgium
