Can we now all stop pretending Donald Trump is a friend of the UK? Or indeed anyone who isn’t one of his cronies?

Ireland Wood, Leeds.
The area was named in the nineteenth century for the Irish who came to England to build canals. Today it is a tiny wild forest.

The August Bank Holiday is approaching fast (the last one for a bit, so better make it count!) 🥲
From the dramatic rock formations of Brimham to the peaceful rolling hills of #Wharfedale, Yorkshire has no shortage of places to stretch your legs. Here are four walks worth exploring this weekend:

NHS waiting lists have fallen in May for the first time in 17 years –
now down to their lowest level in two years.
Labour promised two million more NHS appointments in our first year. Not only was this delivered seven months early, this has now reached 4.6 million
Promise made, promise kept.

Gotta admire Corbyn's relentless ambition. It's not enough to have played his part in delivering Brexit and Boris Johnson, he wants the accomplishment of a Farage premiership before he's done.

Pendant les 2 dernières semaines d'octobre, je pars en séjour de recherche à Utrecht. A ce titre, je cherche un logement pour la famille : si vous connaissez quelqu'un sur place qui laisse son logement pendant ce temps, n'hésitez pas à faire tourner (on peut s'occuper des chats s'il y en a !)

I’m generally an optimist and have a lot of faith in people (can’t do public engagement work & not have this I think). But I get really concerned at where we’re at as a society when the desire for convenient parking is consistently considered more important than kids having space to play.
