    Bloody love being a mum sometimes. My son scored the winning penalty in a cup game and he found his way to me for a hug.

    My mum is 71, has been in a wheelchair for the past 33 years with Multiple Sclerosis and today was on her first ever Zoom call, having a briefing as she starts as a volunteer this week phoning those who are isolated. #HugelyProud #MyVeryOwnHero #GivingBack #PayingItForward

    Two dedicated MPs, two great men, two devastated families. Parliament lost both within days of each other in very different circumstances. It is so hard to make sense of the world sometimes.
    Found this incredible image online of David Amess asking Theresa May for Southend to be made a city, as always with James Brokenshire laughing on. Both were exceptionally talented MP’s, taken long before their time - and within a few days of each other. Remember them like this.

    Emotional to watch all of this, and performed so well, especially given the loss involved. Phenomenal from @PennyMordaunt, only appointed midweek to a role she’s had no time to prepare for, of huge historical significance and live on tv for the first time
    Watch the moment King Charles III and Camilla, the Queen Consort, sign the proclamation at historic ceremony televised for the first time in history. itv.com/news/2022-09-1…

    Six hours after I learnt my #Covid_19 test was positive, the #NHSTrackandTrace form has been completed and my son is taking self isolation very seriously #HandsFaceSpace #staysafe

    Proud Mum alert! My 12 year old has been selected for a COVID symptom study. After explaining to him about the letter I received, I asked if he was up for it, and he replied immediately: ‘Yeah, you’ve got to do your bit haven’t you?’ 👏👏👏 #ProudMum

    Ukrainian refugee kids arrive in Italy, and start at local schools. On their first day they enter nervously. You won’t believe what the Italian kids did next …

    Well said! And so refreshing to see a politician being so generous about a colleague, especially of a different political party. #gentlerkinderpolitics
