What’s most striking about this #PrinceAndrew interview is the complete lack of any hint of revulsion at the idea of middle aged men having sex with trafficked teenagers. He’s more repulsed by the idea that he was once in Pizza Express in Woking

- She was going for a run. 💔
- So she’s 42, started running 9 years ago, since had two kids - the eldest of whom is 9 by the way - works in IT and just qualified for the Olympics after finishing 7th in the London Marathon. Bloody hell Sinead Diver could you be any more inspiring? 🙌🏻
- If you see someone shopping with a child/children & are tempted to vent your disapproval, please consider they may not have a choice. They might be a lone parent. They might be the partner of a healthcare worker on shift. The other parent may be sick. So hold off on the huffing.
- As Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn head home for tea, a reminder that Séamus Mallon slept on a table during the Good Friday Agreement negotiations, Bertie Ahern came back the day after his mother’s funeral and Clinton pulled an all-nighter in the White House #Brexit
- The reality is that whatever Taoiseach, Tainaiste, Tony Holohan or NPHET say it’s on us now. It actually doesn’t matter what level your county is on. You need to do the same things. Limit your contacts, wear a mask, don’t congregate in crowded spaces inside.
- My column: Like Enoch Burke, JK Rowling sees herself as a victim of a witch hunt. But she gets to put her phone down and walk away
- After the level of vitriol I’ve experienced here for suggesting that maybe we should start a conversation about reopening schools before the holidays, I REALLY feel for politicians. I remember a time when it was possible to debate an idea without nasty personal attacks.
- When you get a Facebook message 30 years on from the first boy you ever kissed... and he's getting in touch to suggest you write a column about how Covid-19 is actually caused by 5G. Thanks, Normal People.
- Adding "mad for riding" to my Twitter bioReplying to @jenoconnellYou chose to take the pill cause you were mad for riding, a large number of people are being coerced into taking this vaccine on the basis they are being promised getting their basic freedoms back which has been stolen from them for the past 13 months.
- So according to Maria Bailey, the hotel, the media, her advisors, Michael McDowell, whoever leaked the legal documents, keyboard warriors are all to blame for the mess in which she finds herself. Did I miss anyone?
- Enjoying how these young Ukrainian women schooled Kay Burley for her "You can build a new life in Dublin safe in the knowledge British people are behind you". "We want to send IRISH people...we are so grateful to Irish people."
- Getting off Twitter now before anyone else explains to me why they don't really need news, why journalists are all liars pushing our own agenda, or why the news industry model is broken. To everyone who is supportive of the news industry, thank you.
- Depressing to hear teenager girls afraid to ride bikes to school because of harassment and catcalling from boys and men. The solution shouldn’t be getting girls to moderate their behaviour by not wearing skirts etc. The behaviour that needs to moderate is the boys’ and men’s
