We believe that the precious gift of laughter can bring people together. Take a look at the motley crew who make up our board members, as an example. They're all heights, ages, political persuasions and and beliefs. One or two of them even like tripe.

Most of them are on Twitter, so if you see them do give them a wave. It's an unpaid role - that's why we can attract the brightest and the best. Many have been members of the Board for over a decade and with their help the TMB has grown into a powerful force for good.

Dirty Little Secret (Jonathan Peace)
Only The Dead Stay Silent
#DirtyLittleSecret @JPwritescrime is the first novel in what is going to be an excellent police thriller series featuring WDC Louise Miller.
WDC Louise Miller has returned to her home town #Ossett #WestYorkshire having served on the police force in Manchester for the past four years. The day before she officially starts her new job, she finds the body of a young girl in a 'phone box.
The discovery is shocking, especially in a small parochial town, where the most challenging/exciting events are the annual flower shows/ fayres/Sunday football matches. WDC Miller also has to fit in to a new police unit who is unprepared/unwilling to welcome female detectives
Archbishop Arthur Roche, in an interview with @The_Tablet, says the Vatican's divine worship office is preparing a document on liturgical formation in seminaries.
He says the reasoning behind Vatican II's reforms needs to be better understood.

Roche says standing against the Pope is an "astonishing act", "full of hubris"
The belief “that things will change under a new pontificate is not only misplaced but reveals an enormous ignorance about the mandate given to the entire Church by the Second Vatican Council.” /2

Bishops, he says, have expressed “relief” at the restrictions Pope Francis issued on the pre-Vatican II liturgy.
Archbishop Roche says the Old Rite is allowed as a “pastoral concession.”
And he gives the theological reasons why. /3

Monday's #Covid19 thread starts here. Still holidays around the world for many, including #UK. But here all eyes on Boris Johnson - will he, or won't he make more restrictions or even lockdown? We should know today.
I've got more hospital data in the thread, updated real time..

So let me start with #UK. I've managed to get new health data, which will be critical to the decision on new restrictions in #England
As of y'day there were 7,536 #Covid19 patients in English hospitals; up 17.1% in a week.
But 2,425 of those are in London and that's up 45.5%

In 2005, I set up a business selling CDs, namely mixtape CDs after graduating from Uni.
In 2006, my home was raided & my business was stopped. They said the CDs I was selling were in breach of copyright.
In 2006, my home was raided & my business was stopped. They said the CDs I was selling were in breach of copyright.
It was a complete shock as the exact same CDs I was selling were prevalent on most high streets and supermarkets. They were selling in their thousands in places such as #Tesco & #HMV. And #Woolworths were the actual UK Distributor of these CDs.
Yorkshire has given the world the Brontë Sisters, the first-ever football club, Wensleydale cheese, the selfie and #Yorkshire puddings. It's also home to what's thought to be the world’s first public #railway. Wakefield’s Lake Lock Rail Road opened in 1798. #YorkshireDay 1/3
Two centuries later, Yorkshire’s pioneers are helping to build Britain’s new low-carbon railway, #HS2, including @soil_eng in #Leeds who have spent 5 years investigating ground conditions for #construction of the high-speed route, while growing their business by 35%. 2/3
Once complete, #HS2 will directly serve three of Yorkshire’s main cities – #Leeds, #Sheffield and #York – making it easier for people to live and work where they want; opening up new employment and leisure opportunities. 3/3

So pleased for my new #NorthEast near neighbour @DehennaDavison!
A great maiden speech today. Continuing the positive, aspirational, new @Conservatives approach we saw across the #RedWall in #GE2019 - looking forward to hearing the 6 more new north east #MPs maiden speeches

Right to thank the many many people came to help @DehennaDavison - from the amazing @carriesymonds + #Dilyn the dog to former candidate @C_F_Adams to a host of #Yorkshire helpers and the @ToryReformGroup dream team / @NLandTories who both battled the downpours in #Tudhoe
Knew @DehennaDavison was going to win when #Scargill Drive in #Tudhoe (former colliery community) was so positive and pro @Conservatives đź‘Ť
