As Sophie's boss, all I had to do was act like a decent human being, & see her & treat her for who she is. #TransVisibilityDay https://t.co/FbsUQFVDSq

How’s it going? To mark 1st anniversary of 🇷🇺’s invasion of 🇺🇦, Ukrainian Postal Service has released Banksy mural as stamp. A picture is worth a thousand words… https://t.co/0m4XOabrHE

Peers who refer to the Commons incorrectly as ‘the other place’ tend to have been MPs. @NSoames, making a pitch perfect maiden speech yesterday, got it right - of course!

In C17th, Cromwell abolished @UKHouseofLords. MPs were so angry when Lords were reinstated under Charles II they couldn’t bring themselves to refer directly to them; Lords became “the other place”. New to me: Lords simply call @HouseofCommons, “the House of Commons”. https://t.co/ElAoZlIzlg

For 2nd time, I witnessed an event in Westminster Hall which will be commemorated with brass plaque: @ZelenskyyUa gave magnificent address (HM’s lying-in-state was 1st). Apologies for pimple photo… https://t.co/tAv4xFGxnZ

Happy birthday @ZelenskyyUa! In Kyiv in 2019, I saw People's Friendship Arch celebrating 60th anniversary of Soviet Union. Ukrainians painted black crack near apex in 2014 after Russia annexed Crimea. Reminder of what once was, of what 🇷🇺 has violated, of what must be regained. https://t.co/4Z6VfHcIqU
