Class act. This is the guy of whom Truss said she couldn’t decide if he was friend or foe. Despite all the abuse thrown by the Brextremists he remains a friend of 🇬🇧 and is signalling (probably to the next Government) a commitment to getting back to strong and positive relations

I couldn't agree more. My plan for fixing the Foreign Office involves telling staff to get out of the office and away from the computer, also from internal meetings (and "trainings"), and instead 1) learn languages. 2) read books. 3) go to places 4) talk to people.

The EU budget needs extensive reform both to resolve longstanding shortcomings and in anticipation of a further enlargement of the Union. #EUbudget 🆕 insight by @IainBeggLSE for @CER_EU. buff.ly/3VM3bPe
When it comes to EU engagement, @CER_Grant rightly argues that the next Govt should recreate a European Secretariat inside the Cabinet Office. Because UK engagement with the EU is less foreign policy, more a portfolio of technical departmental issues. 2/5 cer.eu/publications/a…
Interesting debates emerging about how a future (Labour) Government should rethink UK external affairs. Exhibit A: today’s experts paper on replacing the diplomacy-centred Foreign Office with a more skill-diverse department to lead international engagement across the piece. 1/5

Congrats to @QuatuorDanel for a superb performance of Shosta's quartets 4 & 5 and #Weinberg's 4th, @wigmore_hall. Weinberg is an under-rated composer but the ending of his mentor's 5th - very quiet and intense - was exceptional. Danel's cycle of quartets by this pair continues.

On foreign policy, I'm unsuprised there was no new defence commitments. But on a day where Trump's path to US Presidency looks ever clearer, investment in UK and European security is urgently needed.
Lovely obituary from The Times which I think describes my mother's life and character very well. thetimes.co.uk/article/50ea54…
Over the last few years I’ve become increasingly worried about Britain’s drift in an ever more troubled world. This is why I’m proud to be joining @UKLabour as a political adviser to @DavidLammy.
I am hearing that Labour is likely to support the SNP motion on Wednesday calling for an “immediate” ceasefire in Gaza and condemning any “military assault” on Rafah because the motion also demands “the immediate release of hostages” - though there is unease among those close to…
One for all those (@BorisJohnson @Jacob_Rees_Mogg et al) who think that Trump would be a good NATO ally.
Trump: One of the presidents of a big country stood up and said, Well, sir, if we don't pay and were attacked by Russia, will you protect us? I said.. No I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want.

A nice touch at the end of the Delors ceremony, as the the coffin was carried out of the Invalides: some soft jazz was played. Delors would have approved. He told me Sonny Rollins, the virtuoso saxophonist, was his favourite.
@CER_Grant In Germany it was Wolfgang Schäuble’s funeral today. A huge figure in German politics. The German politicians were there. Otherwise I’m sure some would have attended Delors funeral.
@CER_Grant A great man and a great European as well as a great Frenchman
@CER_Grant @HeleneBismarck How on earth was Orban let in ? Maybe the Elysée protocol was at fault.
@CER_Grant What does inviting Orban but no one from the UK say about our standing with our closest neighbours?
@CER_EU @CER_Grant So very true! It was exciting to work for him, and amazing to see how he would pick up and mould half-formed ideas into something tangible and workable (I recall seeing him pick up on Prof. Jacques Vandamme’s proposal to develop a ‘European social dimension’ and running with it).
Hard to dislike #JacquesDelors. Disagree with, certainly, but he had taste and he had principles - some of which I agree with. #jazz

Thank you so much for being with us dear Charles @CER_Grant - you may be the last, but never the least…
Probably. I was only Brit at big ceremony to commemorate 20th anniversary of Mitterand winning power. Like your bio of Delors I wrote first bio of Mitterrandin English. Perhaps French respect biographers?
I missed you Charles, aka the author of The House that Jacques Built
@LordRickettsP @CER_Grant Bravo Charles, and shame on our political class for failing to properly acknowledge the passing of a true European statesman.
@CER_Grant @ProfTimBale Excellent book by the way
@NadineDorries According to Cummings, the election strategy was Give Boris as little airtime as possible Don’t let him do interviews Minimise his interactions with the general public It sounds like they knew that the more the public saw of Boris, the less they’d like him. As it proved.
