There’s a voucher for a free McDonald’s Flat White in today’s Metro. It’s pretty cold outside, and there’s lots of homeless folks out there who I’m sure would love a hot drink (and at no cost to yourselves). Londoners unite - you know what to do!
I’m Jewish. My family are Jewish. A large percentage of my friends are Jewish. Let me tell you something, we’ve never felt the fear, hollowness and loneliness we’re all currently experiencing as much as we do now
Right in front of police on the streets of London pro-Palestinian protestors can shout for the death of Jews. Right in front of those who are supposed to be the protectors.
No wonder British Jews are terrified.
For those who managed to get Glastonbury tickets. Well done. You won. Enjoy the festival, I hope it makes you very happy. Dear Lord, what a sad little life

for making 20,000 of us at The O2 have an evening made up of just stupidly-good fun. Smiling is great. Smiling should be mandatory
Please. Please please please please. Tomorrow. When you’re leaving for work. Take a towel from home. Some socks. A jumper that you don’t need. Anything. Just help those on the streets out. It’s not right and it’s not fair that this is happening in 2018
Right. Sod it. A challenge. Tomorrow, let’s take matters into our own hands. Please leave home with a spare item of clothing that you don’t need anymore, or buy something on your way to work. Give to those who need. Please. Let’s

Sorry to hear all the noise the Brexiteers are giving you, Donald. As part of the 48%, I can’t even begin to describe how upsetting this all is. The best deal is the one we have now. Please do all you can to convince retaining membership is the right way forward
People counting down and ‘stressing’ about getting Spice Girls tickets.
Mate, you try doing that for Glastonbury. Year in, year out. Knowing once all tickets are gone, that’s it. No additional dates added, no secondary sales.
You don’t even know what ticket-stress is!

You do realise that’s utter rubbish, right? The U.K. is one of the only members of the EU which has CHOSEN to not implement that rule. We absolutely could do so, but the home office have ignored this opportunity. It is NOT the fault of the EU
All these (almost-)daily Glastonbury announcements are making me so stupidly excited. I’m almost jealous of all those who are going to experience that wonderful place for the first time. They can’t even comprehend the wonders that await them
Imagine: Noel Edmonds wasn't actually heading into the jungle and it was all an elaborate ploy by ITV to dupe millions of viewers and the press into the biggest Gotcha of all time!

It was such an embarrassing interview. Dowden was just repeating like a robot -
Sam: “Terrible night though”
OD: “they want us to get on with the job. Plus 700k jabs yest”
Sam: is this the end for the Prime Minister?
OD: “they want us to get on with the job. Plus 700k jabs yest”

This Vicar of Dibley episode is so lovely, so heartwarming and so poignant ❤️

The fact that so many lineups have dropped already... and we still have West Holts and The Park's official rosters to go too. Jesus, Glastonbury is going to be mindblowing this year
(Unfortunately there’s also many idiots who have replied / commented citing homeless people as “drugged up alcoholics”, but luckily the noise from those fucktards has been drowned out by the nicer folks on Twitter)
Just about to listen to

Tbh, if the Glastonbury rumours are true, I don’t even want my £50 deposit back. Would sooner donate that to the local companies in Pilton who rely on Glastonbury for their annual income
@shane_reaction_
I can’t believe how many out there don’t know who Skin is. One of best British singers ever, and frontwoman to one heck of a superb band. ‘Stoosh’ is still one of my favourite albums of all time
HOLY DEAR GOD OF CHRIST. The new Ladbrokes / Rocky ad might well be the best commercial I’ve ever seen. My word it’s incredible! Bravo to the team who made this. Genius
And just like that, it was over. My 7th year at

helping the homeless at Christmas, and the stats we left with were mind-blowing (I'll publish soon). The dedication of the volunteers and the shift teams never ceases to amaze me. Big-up the North London

By right, at this very moment, I should be finishing packing and cleaning the flat before setting off for Glastonbury at 10pm tonight. I miss you

I’ve heard two of the biggest cheers of my life at Glasto, and neither were music-related:
2014 - when the rainclouds parted ways for some sun
2019 - when a single cloud blocked the scorching sun for about 5 minutes
Both incredible scenes
@bbcglasto
Terrible. Don’t even attempt to get tickets. It’s not worth it. But if you still want to go, try for tickets on the following Monday after they go onsale

I’d really love to have a calm, open dialogue with some leavers to understand their frustrations and explain that the EU are not always 100% at fault. Alas, the whole situation is continually too ‘shouty’ 😔
Here’s what the 2021 Reading and Leeds lineup looks like when you remove all the male acts. Terrible lack of diversity once again, particularly when there’s such an abundance of amazing female artists that could easily smash the headline slot
