Thinking of the great Tony Benn, who was born on this day in 1925. Tony was invited to speak at the Durham Miners' Gala more times than anyone in its history. Here he is addressing The Big Meeting for the first time - in 1962 at the age of 37. Tony returned to Durham every second Saturday in July for the remainder of his life. We miss him. | Durham Miners' Gala

The Durham Miner's Gala, 2025: A sea of Palestinian flags, Arabic slogans... and a bizarre smattering of Pride flags. Funny, isn't it? How does the Palestinian Ambassador, invited to speak on stage, who famously refused to condemn Hamas, feel about all that rainbow regalia? Bet that's not in his script!
