Trump has fallen below 50% in the popular vote. His margin of victory (pop vote + electoral college) is the third smallest since 1888. (Only JFK in '60 and Nixon in '68 were smaller.) If 238k votes in the blue wall states had been different, he would have lost. Not a mandate.

This. I'm a full-time carer. I had to give up full-time work & go part-time. We DEPEND on the Local Council run day centres that my mum attends. We NEED them. They are under threat of closure. We will be at crisis point if they close as no respite. Fund social services.

When I called @Tim_Walz this morning to ask him to join our campaign, I shared my deep level of respect for him and the work we've done together.
We're going to unify this country and we're going to win.
Let's go get this done.

BREAKING: Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz will be the Democratic VP candidate, alongside Kamala Harris.
Walz forged a reputation as a Governor who makes good policy happen.
Last year he signed a law guaranteeing free breakfast and lunch for all Minnesota students. And that's not all 🧵

A courageous and selfless decision. The President did what he’s done for the last four years - he listened to the American people and put the country’s interests ahead of his own.
The exact opposite of Donald Trump.

Look out this week as we share the different birds we’ve spotted in the Viaduct garden. Our first feathered friend is a team favourite: the Goldfinch!
The collective noun for a group of goldfinches is a ‘charm’. Here an adult feeds a juvenile on a sunny summer’s day.

This piece in the Daily Herald just made me smile - when Hindhead (Surrey) was under threat in 1927, an anonymous woman gave a days wages to the National Trust in order to save it - 3s 6d.
A wonderful reminder of what the NT was built on. Not the gifts of the few, but the many.
