I’m sad to say that this applies to me too. I have absolutely loved doing the Sky Press Preview ever since they first had me on in 2011. I’ve made some wonderful friends and had some fantastic exchanges. Thank you so much to the peerless team behind it - I’ll miss you

Sad news for me: Sky News have decided that Times Radio is a competitor and so I can no longer do

In 1916, after the Austro-Hungarian artist Oskar Kokoschka was rejected by his lover, composer Alma Mahler, he had a this life sized replica doll of her made. He wrote that the “point of all this for me is an experience which I must be able to embrace!”

This is completely and totally untrue, and she should know it. The US has

(b) an opioid crisis
(c) an affordable housing crisis in SF and LA
But Suella never let’s facts get in the way of a splashy, nasty policy
Unless we step in now to stop this, British cities will go the way of places in the US like San Francisco and Los Angeles, where weak policies have led to an explosion of crime, drug taking, and squalor. 2/4
