From a longtime Biden adviser:

Gripping coverage on #Newsnight this evening of the #Biden situation with a fascinating panel including passionate appeal from Bonnie Greer for him to resign with dignity.

We need intelligent journalists more than ever, especially those that are energetic advocates for the arts, so I’m very sad to see Kirsty Wark leave #Newsnight. One of the best!

“when the women’s team won it - what it meant to them, what it meant to the nation.” see how easy it is to normalise - and, thus, legitimise to the general public - women’s football?

I walked across an empty land, I knew the pathway like the back of my hand…

For once I agree with Claire Fox, and view that #Ukraine’s incursion into Russia is a largely positive development. Brass neck of that Russian MP was unbelievable. However, Putin will punish. #Newsnight

Struck by the amount of posts today from parents re A level results; many celebrating success, others advocating for clearing places on their children’s behalf. Thinking of care leavers who have been failed by their corporate parent. Many will be have opened their results alone

I like this panel of pragmatists on #Newsnight tonight. Stephen Bush excellent as usual. Pay and conditions are key to getting public services and the economy going again, but social care staff are indeed always forgotten.

To be clear, it was a parliament with a huge Conservative majority which voted nearly 3-1 in a free vote to ban so-called 'silent prayer' outside abortion clinics. And the House of Lords did nothing to disagree. Because harassment of women isn't free speech.

A beautifully moving and very timely performance of Britten’s War Requiem BBC Proms BBC Radio 3

Bravo! Excellent performance from Piemontesi playing Beethoven’s 4th Piano Concerto BBC Radio 3 BBC Proms

I want pay tribute to the outstanding leadership of Diana Johnson DBE MP 🇬🇧🇺🇦🌈 has given over the last 14 years. I am delighted to have her endorsement as her successor to chair the APPG. Needless to say I will be staying in close touch with her for advice and guidance.

This Wendy Cope poem is new to me. It’s quietly magnificent. (Via Joseph Fasano):

We had a wonderful time last night and it was fantastic to hear the organ in full throttle Anna Lapwood BBC Proms BBC Radio 3

12 more glorious days of elite sport. Plus The Last Leg. Can’t wait. #Paralympic2024 ParalympicsGB

"We're going to leave you with the names of the 72 men, women, and children, who lost their lives as a result of the Grenfell fire." Victoria Derbyshire #Newsnight

remember Grenfell, scandals in children's homes owned by private equity, polluting water companies, dodgy PPE contracts or P&O treatment of workers When you hear likes of Tufton Street, Rupert Lowe or RIchard Tice arguing for "a pared down state, deregulation, slashing red tape"

I think joshwiddicombe’s ‘Mark Swan Song’ game might need to be his swansong for his games series 😂 The Last Leg
