Many thanks to Times Radio for taking the time to speak to me about my continued support for the Prime Minister, who is doing an excellent job in difficult circumstances, delivering on our manifesto commitments at home and navigating a challenging situation on the international stage.

The Royal British Legion, Reading Borough Council, and local organisations like The Forgotten British Gurkha Charity are playing a vital role supporting forces veterans. I paid tribute to them and asked for best practice from Reading to be shared across the country.

I highlighted the need for access to banking services in areas like Caversham and Emmer Green that have seen all the local branches close in recent years, and how this particularly affects older and vulnerable residents. I am calling for a Banking Hub in our community.

My weekly update, this week as Parliament is in recess I have been working on a number of local community projects.

Everybody wants access. But access isn’t random. You either: build it, buy it, or get positioned into it. Social media is exposure. Rooms like this are access. If you’re trying to move differently, start with the tools. Because access is getting expensive now. Tools in bio! If you’re researching

Amsterdam is home to the first underwater bike parking in the world. It's open 24/7, can house 7,000 bikes and 700 rental bikes and has a shop for maintenance and repair. Construction costs were around 60 million euros. That's cheap compared to the annual savings on healthcare costs from cycling!

One of the moments involving #KyleBusch I'll never forget was in 2007 when he drove for Hendrick, he won the first Car of Tomorrow race at Bristol, and in victory lane said "I'm not a fan of this car, I can't stand driving them, THEY SUCK!" 🤣 NASCAR was none too happy with him after that

Cały świat razem ze mną uznaje moje małżeństwo z Catherine bez mojej AUTONOMI. Jeśli jestem PRZEDMIOTEM a nie PODMIOTEM to jestem jej własnością. Każdy może poślubić człowieka bez autonomii ale bierze za niego 100% odpowiedzialność. Ufam w jej człowieczeństwo bardziej niż mojej patologicznej matce.

Je kunt mij niet overtuigen dat deze mensen mentaal stabiel zijn. PS. Als je lacht ga je naar de hel.

J’étais persuadé que la propagandiste de Poutine en France, protégée par Bolloré, Xenia Fedorova, était journaliste de profession. Mais apparemment, même pas. Donc, on veut savoir qui a filé une carte de séjour de 10 ans à cette propagandiste, et sous quelles conditions ?
