@FinhamParkRE I think they’re going to miss you too! Thanks for supporting them all so brilliantly

End of an era! What a lovely group of students. It’s been a pleasure to teach you. You will be missed ❤️#classof2023

@philB4EU @LucyABeaumont Of course she’s ‘self tweeting’ - no one else does it for her. 🙄 it’s hard to know what a family is going through, but it’s often easy seeing when someone is beating abusive to someone else - what they are going through is irrelevant. No excuse for abuse.

@LucyABeaumont Are you possibly self tweeting? It’s hard surely to know what a family are going through on a train journey. What pressures they are facing. Surely the advice should be to seek help, to try and find what it was that first brought them together again. To heal and to love again

@RSAEvents Will it remain available after please? (Can’t make that time)

What will replace the crumbling era of globalisation? 🌍 Next week @alexaclay (director of @theRSA_US) will be speaking to @RanaForoohar of the @FT about the case for a place-based, 21st century economy. #RSAprosperity Get your free ticket ➡️ bit.ly/3mG9Mv3

@RishiSunak This is just awful and it is definitely not the priority for British people. Do not dare to try and speak for all of us when you were voted in by a teeny tiny minority of British people. The priority is helping people fleeing their countries out of fear and desperation.

If you come to the UK illegally you will be stopped from making late claims and attempts to frustrate your removal. You will be removed in weeks, either to your own country if it is safe to do so, or to a safe third country like Rwanda.

@GaryLineker Horrendous. Thanks for using your platform to speak out and draw attention to this. Sorry for the flak you’re getting. So much support for you

Good heavens, this is beyond awful.

@Stephaniser Someone should write something about that…

@TwitterSupport Why on earth would you do that? Making Twitter less and less useful 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thanks for the carols in #Earlsdon tonight @RoyalSpaBrass - hope your fingers have warmed up now!!

@jakeyoh Great thread Jake - thanks for setting it out so clearly.

What’s happening today in the arts.🧵 Arts organisations across England will find out if they have been awarded National Portfolio Organisation (NPO) status from Arts Council England (ACE). Those awarded will receive funding from Apr 2023 to Mar 2026. 1/ #NPO

For arts folk waiting on #npo decisions - just received an email from @ace_national saying the announcement will be next Friday 4 No

@StephSenseArt Just got an email from ACE saying announcement will be next Fri 4 above.

Waiting for #NPO update..

@twheaterer Just got an email from ACE saying announcement will be next Fri 4 above.

I know @ace_national will let us know when they know, but not knowing when is almost worse than not knowing the outcome itself! #NPO

@j_coleman @PhoenixLeeds ACE have just announced delay to announcement - statement here artscouncil.org.uk/investment23

This time tomorrow #NPO decisions will be out. Sending positive vibes to all those waiting nervously (including the @PhoenixLeeds team). As a sector I hope we can rally round those who miss out. So much hanging in the balance!

@BhamCityCouncil Please don’t advertise ‘opportunities’ for musicians to play with no pay for ‘exposure’ - they help create an atmosphere to make people want to come to the markets - which are a commercial venture - and should be paid. This is really bad practice.

#Birmingham's Frankfurt Christmas Market🎄 is looking for staff and musicians to help this year's event go with a swing! Do you know someone looking for a seasonal job or a choir/musicians looking for a festive gig? Read full story here: orlo.uk/qmmLQ #BeBoldBeBham

@ArtyAbid Oh to be a fly on the wall…

@ArtyAbid Woah! That’s massive! Enjoy your new status, as you bring your wisdom to the next generation 😁

@mannyc Ffs. What do they not understand about ‘crisis’?

@mariacaulfield @Andrew4Pendle Why in earth would you be objecting to a solar power plant when we are in an energy crisis that will only continue until we can harness renewable energy at home rather than relying on coal, oil and imports. Madness

Great to be joined in Ringmer this morning with party chairman @Andrew4Pendle . Residents really pleased the Lib Dem /Greens plan for a solar farm unlikely to go forward but disappointed the £100k they gave towards it is not going to the swimming pool

Listening to the wonderful @cubbingtonbrass in Spencer Park - so lucky to have this on our dooorstep. Particularly enjoying the horn section @AmandaCMay 😁

@IanAr47 @theJeremyVine @JuliaHB1 Nope - it’s still your copyright.

@theJeremyVine @JuliaHB1 There are no laws in the social media world @theJeremyVine If you put a photo out there you are giving it away for free for anyone to do as they wish with it. Simple really!

🧵So let's just get this straight. The Spanish government prints a poster encouraging people to accept each other's bodies on the beach. Everyone praises it.
