    Never leave a 2-year-old child and a tub of sudocrem alone in a room together!

    I don't understand why you think that's appropriate. You state it's a private event. He's clearly not interested in talking to you, so hounding and chasing him is entirely unacceptable.

    Lots of surprised faces in #Bishopsgate today, as HRH The Princess of Wales visited @NatWestGroup HQ to launch her new business task force for early childhood.

    A 4,000 bed hospital built in just 4 days. We undoubtedly have the most skilled military personnel in the world. 👏🏻 #NightingaleHospital #NHSheroes

    @RishiSunak got the tone of this absolutely right, but I'm sad to see you have not! "A hate march"...really? Come on, you can do better than this, Home Secretary. This is a sensitive issue through which you should be seeking to encourage people to unite, not further divide.

    Who is this buffoon, Inigo Gilmore? @Channel4News should be ashamed of that ridiculous line of questioning which is helping no one. I say that as someone whose family all work for the #NHS. Scrutinise and challenge the execute, stop trying to grab a headline in a national crisis!

    Great to join HRH The Duke of Sussex at the Guildhall for the 5th Anniversary of @WeAreInvictus. Remarkable achievements from injured service personnel from around the world, competing in international sports & recovering from mental health challenges.

    But to be fair Carol, as Head of the Commonwealth, the King is travelling to try and represent 34% of the world's population. The British Royal Family is the envy of the world and incomparable with European peers.

    Proud to support this motion before the Court of Common Council. There are likely to be many amendments, but #taxis are a lifeline for those with accessibility needs in the City of London. More than 1/3 of licenses are now have zero emissions capability. It needs a review.

    Another fantastic 'Big Curry' lunch hosted by @citylordmayor at the Guildhall to raise funds for @Soldierscharity.

    Getting a taxi in the City of London is harder than ever. Many taxi drivers have given up on the City because of the multitude of 1-way @TfL schemes introduced. As a reminder, there are 2 days left of the consultation on #Bishopsgate. Have your say here

    📣Calling all Taxi users/passengers in the @cityoflondon: #CabsAcrossBank need to hear from you today! CAB believes that Licensed Hackney Carriages should be able to go where buses go including use of bus lanes & other routes or manoeuvres permitted for buses authorised by @TfL.

    🔥Thank-you Derek Whitbread 🔥who joined @ECFRS aged 19 & has selflessly served the #Epping community as a firefighter for 45 years this week. Derek is a man who always shies away from recognition but is truly deserving. So, if you see him around, thank him for his service 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
