I was so consumed with the @burnleyofficial game I forgot all about Tree of the Day yesterday. So thanks to our old neighbour Charlie Bridge for this absolute beaut from El Salvador. First ever Tree of the Day 🥇 for 🇸🇻
Clip here of @restispolitics in which @rorystewartuk admits to reliving the ‘nightmare’ of his Tory leadership TV debate, which he watched back for the first time last week, and I give him a few thoughts on how he could have done better!! Dramatic stuff. LINK IN BIO for the full episode which covers this and so much more
Johnson Truss seem to be viewed as fairly irrelevant. Low key coverage to the latest Brexit lies and farce. Pic 1 news in brief under Orban. Pic 2 Inside page ‘London looking for a fight’. Pic 3 @bild give their famous back page to Wag-gate so Rebekah will be happy. Pic 4 fascinating analysis of Zelensky speech. They have analysed every word as negative or positive and declared he is more positive than negative in his rhetoric.
New episode @restispolitics out now LINK IN BIO. I seem to have become @rorystewartuk therapist as he relives the ‘nightmare’ of the TV debate with Johnson which led to him stripping off his tie and pulling agonised faces! Then he becomes mine as I explain why I never stood for Parliament (@davidginolaofficial has a walk on part.) we also discuss Ireland, Wales, Sri Lanka, Israeli violence at funeral, food security, Teal independents in the Australian elections, German Länder elections, Francois Hollande views on Putin and Johnson, the weakening of international institutions, and to help A Level students next week we have a debate on the power of the press. Oh, and Mrs Vardy and Mrs Rooney of course. We know our audience!!!!
Hallo aus Hamburg! Tree heaven, especially down by Lake Alster. Pic 1, my winning Tree of the Day, is in the garden of the US Consulate. The picture doesn’t quite capture its size, spread or awe. First ever shared 🥇 between 🇩🇪 and 🇺🇸- enjoy my ten favourites but frankly there could have been hundreds on the podium!! Danke Hamburg. Was für eine fantastische Baumstadt!!
Deliberate error of course!! In the one we posted last night our brilliant young film maker Vasco - not born at the time of the Good Friday Agreement - redrew the border as a way of highlighting the importance of borders in the N Ireland situation! Mistake spotted, admitted and fixed (if only Johnson would take the same approach). LINK IN BIO for full episode. New one being recorded today for release tomorrow.
In Bruges on Saturday. Some fabulous trees …. Here a selection, the winner being pics 1/2, mainly because pic 1 my favourite pic … what a lovely place, and so clean (writes an anti-litter obsessive)
Tree of the Day
Tree of the Day. In Bruges. Someone should make a film here …
Tree of the Day (centre) taken from a train. Pic doesn’t capture its full Tree of the Dayness as we speed through somewhere or other but as Trees of the Day go it is a real Tree of the Day #TreeOfTheDay

In Downing Street there is a sense of injustice and considerable upset that the 126 Partygate fines have been levied disproportionately on women and junior officials. One source said: “the majority of [those fined] are very junior diary managers etc on 24k-ish and these fines…
@MikeGapes @campbellclaret I warned about this a couple of years ago

Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t it these guys who did 14 straight front pages demanding the police investigate a takeaway curry?
