The tributes coming from France in particular to The Queen are a firm reminder of who our dearest friends and closest neighbours truly are.

Merci pour votre gentillesse. 🇬🇧🇫🇷🇪🇺
RT @EmmanuelMacron: To you, she was your Queen.

She will be with all of us forever.

Thank you for your incredible service to our country, Queen Elizabeth II. We will always remember you for your strength, dedication and dignity. What an utterly remarkable life and a monumental loss for us all.
RT @RoyalFamily: The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon.

The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.

Deeply concerning news. My thoughts are with The Queen and her family.

Still trying to get my head round a Government that thinks solar panels and housing are bad for local communities but fracking isn't 🤔

The worst kind of nimbyism.

Wow: this morning I worked in a café between meetings and they refused to let me charge my phone on the premises, citing the need to cut back on their electricity bills. People are really worried... Liz Truss must freeze energy bills immediately.

RT @Peston: The pound fell as low as $1.14 today, a low price not seen for any great period since the 1980s. Quite apart from this unfortunate symbolism for a new PM, it presents a problem for Liz Truss - because it will mean further rises in the sterling price of imports, and yet more...

RT @PickardJE: interesting stat of the day:

Liz Truss wants to change the law to require 50% of a workforce to vote "yes" in order for a strike to go ahead

Liz Truss just won 47% of support from the Conservative membership to become leader

(57% result on 82.6% turnout)

So public money has been wasted celebrating something that *checks notes* is also costing us money?
RT @adampayne26: Unboxed, the arts festival dubbed the "festival of Brexit", has seen just 238k visitors — the initial target was 66m

It cost over 4x more than the Platinum Jubilee, while some participants demanded in their contracts that Brexit wouldn’t be mentioned

Can't quite believe it has been 25 years since Diana's death. I remember my mother, who ran a radio station at the time, getting the phone call and changing all the programmes. Then our whole family felt intensely shocked and sad for days. Diana was a special person.

RT @franceinfo: 🔴🗣 Liz Truss, successeure annoncée de B. Johnson au Royaume-Uni refuse de dire si E. Macron est un ami ou un ennemi ➡️ "Ce n’est jamais bon de ne trop perdre ces repères. Le Royaume-Uni est une nation amie, quel que soit ses dirigeants, parfois malgré ses dirigeants.”

Imagine what you've been arguing for your whole life turning out to be so flawed that you end up claiming sewage in our seas is an acceptable price to pay for blind patriotism. 💩
RT @johnredwood: Is there any French or EU criticism of the U.K. that Labour would disagree with? I want a PM who stands up for the U.K. when the EU criticises our migration policy, our fishing rights, vaccines, internal trade and the rest.

RT @AlexTaylorNews: No one has ever called out, with such clarity and sheer authority the "glaring omissions" of UK broadcasters who refuse to discuss Brexit ("the obvious economic cause of major change in this country)" as @maitlis just has here in one minute 👏👏
Absolutely this 💯👇👇👇

RT @benlukeart: Eye-popping bit from ⁦@MsRachelCooke⁩’s excellent piece on ⁦@maitlis⁩ and ⁦@jonsopel⁩ in ⁦@ObsNewReview⁩. We know the Beeb too often sought the views of extremists in the interests of a misguided idea of “balance”, but still… ugh.
