BREAKING: Democrats are suing Trump and his Justice Department, alleging the administration is attempting to interfere with the midterms through a “persistent stream of threats and intimidation” directed at state and local election officials, while pressuring states to purge voters from their rolls.

Like London, Paris has rapidly expanded its network of cycle lanes.
It was great to get out and try them.
Really inspiring but, like London, still lots to do - felt a bit scary at some of the junctions.

I wonder what snacks will be on offer at Number 10? 🤔 🍪

They broke Eisenhower’s globe because they didn’t want to wait for a team of specialist historians to move it.
I cannot think of a more apt metaphor for Pete Hegseth’s DoD.

It’s always inspiring seeing what other cities do to make streets safer.
In Paris, it’s impossible not to notice the ubiquitous zebra crossings that help give pedestrian priority on side roads.
I’m delighted we’re working with @transportgovuk to start trialing these in London.

Hillary Clinton: “The Republican Party is no longer a political party, it is a cult devoted to Trump and Trump’s power. The Republican Party needs a total transformation. If we’re gonna have a healthy government that actually gets things done and delivers for people, the Republican Party has to purge itself of everybody that lost both their conscience and their backbone over the last ten years and that’s most of them”

We’ve never been closer to taking our power back — but we’re still the underdogs in this fight.
We’re going up against a rigged system and a lot of money. We need all hands on deck.

Labour MP @zubirahmed asks the Prime Minister about concerns raised by a recent ITV investigation into Reform UK.
"It is incumbent on all parties represented in this House to root out the politics of poison," Andy Burnham says. #PMQs

I never shy away from discussing controversial topics, but my @UKLabour govt, this PM will NEVER tolerate racism to lead the way in our politics. 👇

Anglian Water fined puny £1.6M for polluting 14km of River Brain.
Ignored alarms telling them that sewage was being dumped.
Highest levels of toxic ammonia.

I was appalled by what ITV’s undercover investigation into Reform UK revealed.
Racism, misogyny and deeply disturbing comments from people holding elected office.
I’d encourage everyone to watch the documentary and judge for themselves. This behaviour has no place in British politics. 👇

Extending the Fuel Duty freeze should not be a Budget priority.
It is not well targeted (higher-income households spend more proportionally on petrol) and fuel costs are still below historic highs.
At a time of constrained public finances, regular fixed increases would be a more credible policy 👇

Plenty of utter BS from the government and FF supporters being used to justify this monstrous decision
Every tonne of CO2 we don't emit counts - and every tonne we do takes 400,000 years to completely remove from the atmosphere
Politically inept too

Today on Feedback, we'll hear from listeners reacting to the announcement that BBC Radio 4 Extra's linear broadcast channel will be closed to create more savings for the corporation.
Listen today at 3.30pm on @BBCRadio4 📻
Feedback | @BBCSounds
ALT Listeners share their thoughts: "I really, really regret that decision. Radio 4 Extra is one of my favourite channels. I'm a fan of all its strands: comedy, drama, documentary.” "I think it's a disgrace closing down 4 Extra...it can't be that expensive to run." "What a great mixture of information, entertainment, cultural heritage and nostalgia, all taken away from us at one fell swoop. And yet the younger and middle years listeners...don't appear to have been similarly targeted in these cuts."
Liz Clements retweeted
Bad news: the BBC is set to scrap Radio 4 Extra. 📻 Losing this treasure trove of classic comedy, archive drama, and timeless storytelling would be a huge blow for millions of us.
