Earlier today I made a statement in the Chamber about the disgraceful behaviour yesterday directed at the Right Honourable Members for Holborn and St Pancras and Tottenham. Our words have consequences, and we should always be mindful of that fact. Watch here⬇️

Looking forward to the opening of the long-awaited exhibition of the work of Sussex artist Kate Montgomery, at Long & Ryle in London today. Busy, but never crowded, consciously ambiguous, and full of colour and pattern. longandryle.com

'Isla' by John Grade, one of seven art installations dotted around the 550-acre grounds of Wakehurst, Kew Gardens' Sussex satellite, for their summer spectacular 'Rooted'. A mesmerising aesthetic experience, and a healthy walk, to boot: loved it kew.org/wakehurst

Brighton seafront, c1920, looking rather more genteel than it does nowadays. And everyone in a hat. The painting, by Charles Burleigh, will be on show at Brighton Museum & Art Gallery's new exhibition See the Sea opening next weekend (July 22)

Eve Arnold used well honed fly-on-the-wall documentary methods for her celebrity portraits which is why her Marilyn Monroe photos are the most candid out there. Find out more at Newlands House Gallery's big summer show in Petworth

The meeting of sea clowns. 😁🥰 #TheDailyPuffin 🐦

Slightly c*te . . . ? Perhaps . . . #FoxOfTheDay from @marcheathym007 on Twitter

One more week to see Rossanne Pellegrino's playful-with-a-punch show Extremely Supernormal at Solaris in St Leonards. Dinosaurs are homemade plaster casts as her six year old banned her from nicking her plastic toys. This one's called Feeling Ancient rossannepellegrino.com/extremely-supe…

Artist Jo Lamb in Newhaven yesterday at the unfurling of her site-relevant landscape, part of the project Following Ravilious, an art trail of billboard-sized responses to our Eric's representations of the town, curated by Towner Eastbourne #ravilious
