Shocked and deeply saddened to learn of the death of Paul Darling KC, Treasurer of Middle Temple, a silk of considerable distinction, and a loyal gregarious friend. May he rest in peace and rise in glory.

The Report of Module 1 of the COVID Inquiry is important not just for the criticisms but even more so for the proposals. A privilege to have tep'd local government in E&W whose contribution is vital.

Just to add a note to Mary's tweet. Congratulations on all your AI work. You have really brought the issue out in this last Parliament!
Replying to @MickWhitleyMP
Mick, thank you so much to you and your team, especially Sam, for all your support of the TUC'S AI project. It was fantastic working with you over the Bill, the Westminster Hall debate, and the event - and a real turning point in the project. Thank you for everything. Mary
