I am delighted King Charles and Queen Camilla will visit the Holy See and meet Pope Francis during this Jubilee Year when so many will gather in Rome as pilgrims of hope. It presents a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the close relationship between the UK and the Holy See.

Today, tomorrow and always. We stand with Ukraine.

Nothing but admiration for Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський leadership. Also love the levels of s***housery to his game by retweeting loads of leader's tweets with "Thank you for your support" as a big FU to Trump. Pettiness I can absolutely get behind. 🇬🇧🇪🇺❤️🇺🇦

Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 God Save the King 🇬🇧

I guess my dad, and countless other service personnel, must've done multiple tours of the Middle East for bants then. Huge disrespect to those that never came home, as well as those who did but still carry to physical and mental scars.

Tonight, we remember and give thanks for the extraordinary life of John ‘Paddy’ Hemingway DFC, the last of ‘The Few.’

“What is a Nation really? Only it’s people.” A really lovely old film about the British people. Narrated in 1954.

Wishing a blessed and peaceful Good Friday to Christians in the UK and around the world, as they commemorate the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ.

The King’s message following the death of Pope Francis.

England is a great nation. A great people. Let’s cherish our past, not forget it. Happy St George’s Day! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Civic duty done 🗳 ☑️ Was voting for Rob Waltham for Greater Lincolnshire Mayor anyway, however, he's also your tactical vote if you want to stop Reform. Appreciate that would involve some serious nose holding, but surely it's worth it against the alternative...

Habemus Papam! We have a Pope! The Cardinals gathered in the Vatican’s Sistine Chapel have elected Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost as the 267th Pope, who took the name Pope Leo XIV.

Lots of interesting history days out over the summer holidays. Lots of stories and photos I could use in history lessons this year. Not many stories as incredible as those told in the Lord Ashcroft gallery at IWM. So glad I got down there before they're removed.
