Nicola Trahan, a neighbour, has died aged 97. She was parachuted into France during WW2, aged just 17, a spy, in the Special Operations Executive. She made numerous trips to work with the French Resistance. Such stories she could tell… Extraordinary.

Amazed that discharging someone from @SalisburyNHS is dependent on a Pharmacy that closes at 5pm. My mum now spends a needless night in hospital.I love the NHS but simple efficiencies would stop unnecessary #bedblocking

The language of invasion - as if by an enemy - is calculated to foment prejudice. If you don't understand that this also happened in 1930s Germany, may I suggest that next Remembrance Day you stop comparing the size of your poppy, and actually listen to what is being said?

This is quite remarkable. After winter storms in January last year, we found the remains of an old teddy bear washed up. When we shared a picture online, Anglican priest @CassWoollibold asked if she could restore him. A thread.

@Depheruek fake account! – at Shrewton, England
I dont want to explain the details, but while I'm stuck on the other of the Atlantic @CassWoollibold has been amazing today. – at Cambridge, MA
I'll preface this with I can't stand the Tories, but I do hope all the sycophants in the Cabinet who in the last 24hrs sold their soul to Boris Johnson never see a red box again. #GEnow – at Nairobi, Kenya

This you? Less than half an hour before this tweet. You sycophantic, shameless, disloyal, opportunistic weasel with no values.
