Written Statement Number 2 on tomorrow’s @houseofcommons.parliament.uk Order Paper makes me jump for the joy - the launch of the all new 10 year National Youth Strategy!
Been waiting all year for this one, so much looking forward to diving in as Young People’s voices really do matter. 🙌🏽

3 months since my first Great North Run - just 9 months and 9 days to go until the next. 🏃🏽♂️
Really like the 2026 Technical Training T-Shirt which comes with the GNR Membership, which as you can see is definitely correct location wise! 😅

Before the Budget I told you the Chancellor was going to do 3 things with it:
💷 Tacking the cost of living
✂️ Cutting NHS waiting lists
📉 Driving down borrowing and debt
How did I know?
Because if you ignore the media and listen to what the government said, they told us.
And she delivered all 3.

It's such a bizarre framing. Labour MPs think taking 450k kids out of poverty is putting the country first! That's why they wanted it to happen! It's not because they personally benefit.
Headline on The World at One just now:
"Sir Keir Starmer has denied putting the Labour Party before the country by ending the two-child benefit cap".
Can we please go back to reporting the actual news, not someone's partisan take on it?

Political 'journalists' no longer report on the facts and truth.
They share gossip and speculation.
And when the facts are know they move on to the next round of speculation and gossip.
I can guarantee you before the end of today, many in the media will be speculating about the next Budget!

I think if 24 people are dead it's more than "testing" a ceasefire.
BREAKING: At least 24 people are dead and 54 wounded after Israeli airstrikes in Gaza, testing the ceasefire that began in October, officials say.
Israel launches strikes in Gaza ceasefire's latest test as hospitals say 20 killed
Israel's military says it has launched new airstrikes against Hamas militants in Gaza, testing the ceasefire that began on October 10.

Seeing that Paramount own Channel 5, perhaps the door is ajar to finally bring some European matches free-to-air again?
Please let it be so, as that would be both very welcomed and get HUGE viewing figures!

Quick word about the Paramount+ UCL deal in the UK.
Yes it's yet another subscription.
However, if the Paramount succeeds in buying Warner/Discovery then Discovery+ and TNT Sports could get folded into Paramount+ so existing TNT subscribers would still get to watch Champions League.

A very late invite to the 2025 Social Economy Awards after work and thus being in the same room as PJ Ellis - formerly of Big Brother, has somewhat my week!
Was that late of an invite I was at work minus a suit, so a splash of £95 put that right. 😅

There is so much messed up about this front page Express story today.
There's no suggestion or evidence ANY alcohol or drugs was consumed. This is literally just people dancing.
And buried in the piece: "The footage is believed to have been filmed just before Labour took power in July last year."
