- I will gladly pay more for my energy bills for the sake of this baby
- The idea that Europe can be at peace if Russia prevails in Ukraine is absurd. The idea the US can have a China policy if Russia wins is laughable. This is a fight for our freedom, not just Ukraine’s. Russia must fail. The sooner we realise that the better.
- I want to tell a story about King Charles III. It’s shaped a lot of why I am a supporter of the present-day Monarchy and our new Monarch. A longish thread 🧵 1/12

- Replying to @BritainForTrump and @piersmorganWait, you’re arguing sartorial standards have increased since the 1940? Nonsense

At this important moment of change in Iran, I was pleased to be invited to take part in this year’s @MunSecConf. However, my participation in this conference has
- Replying to @Deplorable94These Russian bots are so funny You may enjoy the 1898 article Churchill wrote for Vogue in 1898 archive.vogue.com/article/1898/7… As well as this picture from when he featured on the cover of The Tatler in 1943…
- Replying to @DanielKorskiWithout ofc comparing my experience or that of my team to those survivors, I only mention it here to say that I saw in the future King’s sensitive engagement, his initiative and his kindness toward many battle-affected - and neglected - people a similarly soothing effect 11/12
- Replying to @DanielKorskiThe late Jonathan Sacks once described the effect The Queen had on meeting a group Holocaust survivors. Meeting her had “brought a blessed closure to deeply lacerated lives.” 10/12
- Replying to @DanielKorskiThe PoW arrived and patiently walked from group to group, meeting everyone and hearing their stories while the various ministers and generals just listened in. He spent as much time as was needed with everyone, asking sensitive questions and commending everyone 9/12
