🧵A few years back, I introduced sit-down community dining in my school. There was huge outcry at the time. Students had been used to wandering around the site at lunch time eating grab-and-go food, with litter strewn around the school site.

"The polling evidence ... shows that only 36% of Reform voters say they would have voted Conservative if Reform had not stood. Simplistic solutions which involve adding the Reform vote to the Tory vote and saying “Look, there is a rightwing majority here” are delusional"

The French political establishment is congratulating itself that it’s stuffed Marine Le Pen’s National Rally yet again. But its troubles have only just begun.

This must be urgently remembered in 2029, with vigorous pressure on broadcasters to focus on actual issues.

If women MPs want to organise cross-party, I'd suggest it should be in a way which doesn't build in special access for any external organisation. Especially one with highly unrepresentative views on a subject that's already helped bring down 2 first ministers in Scotland.

One of the heartiest, most beautiful soups you can make is caldo verde, a Portuguese soup made with potatoes, onions, garlic, chorizo and greens. It’s also very simple to make!
In this thread I‘ll show you how to make it.

As my time as a minister has now ended, I wanted to acknowledge what an extraordinary privilege it is to serve in government and how grateful I am to have had the opportunity.

Ms Haq showed me there was no ceiling on what I or my friends could achieve.
She set high standards and saw no reason we should not meet them. This is the difference great teachers make.
That's why we start now fixing the recruitment & retention crisis.
