So very sad to learn that Derek died yesterday. Derek was a wonderful colleague and an incredible advocate for his community in the Eatons. Rest in peace Derek.

@caronmlindsay @markpack Stole a baguette on a French quay after midnight because the stall holder wouldn’t sell it to me to take back to a boat for breakfast 😱I could list other things which others might think worse, but I think I have most guilt about this!

@caronmlindsay @LibDems @markpack Madonna True Blue, which mainly just tells you how old I am! I’ve always listened to classical music to relax but didn’t buy that myself. I still don’t 😁

Wonderful to be in St John’s for Remembrance Sunday. Sad that this will be Andrew’s last remembrance service. It is such a moving, intimate service here, and this year feels particularly poignant as war is again causing devastation in Europe. We must never forget.

RT @andrewmeyerson: Here's your weekly reminder that 10 years ago the NHS was the best healthcare system on the planet, ranked number 1 by the @commonwealthfnd. The NHS crisis is due to a decade of Tory underfunding and criminal grade neglect. We don't need a new system, we need a new govt.

@LizWebsterLD @LibDems I’m so sorry Liz, there is no excuse for threatening behaviour.

RT @LibDems: Never mind #ImACeleb and trying to win meals for a jungle camp, Matt Hancock should be in the UK, in his office, and delivering for constituents wondering where their next meal will come from.
You’re not a celebrity. You’re an MP with a job to do.

Foster carers are amazing! Thank you John Lewis for focusing on children in care this Christmas! If anyone in Cambridgeshire feels they might be able to help a child in need please please contact Cambridgeshire County Council, and thank you SO much to all our foster carers!

RT @PippaCrerar: 💥Gavin Williamson investigated over abusive texts to ex-chief whip complaining about not being invited to Queen’s funeral.
Rishi Sunak knew about “bullying & intimidating” behaviour when he made him minister.
After @CatNeilan revealed abuse @Gabriel_Pogrund gets hold of texts.

Anyone else reminded of the spaceship in Wall-E that humans have to retreat to after making earth uninhabitable?
RT @heidistephens: Can't stop looking at this picture of a new Royal Caribbean cruise ship. My son just described it as 'human lasagne'. Absolutely my idea of hell.

RT @campbellclaret: Covid. Ukraine. The mad mini-budget. Austerity. General Tory incompetence and waste. All factors in the current economic mess. But BREXIT is right up there with all of them. Yet the people in power don’t want to say so. Madness. You can’t fix what you won’t admit is broke

This thread made me cry. Thank you for such an important story. Books and stories are important, so are good doctors. Thank you!
RT @readiatrician: I said goodbye to a patient a few years ago. She didn’t die, she just got old. I treat patients to age 21 and they move on. When they do, I joke, “well, I did my job! I kept you alive until adulthood!”
With this kid, it was not a joke. 1/

RT @shaunjlawson: Worried about how the UK's had such horrifically stagnant growth ever since 2010, and the huge cuts which are coming?
That's why WE NEED IMMIGRATION, you economically illiterate Brexit-cheerleading quarter-wits.
Without it, kiss goodbye to the NHS. And pensions.
