THEY SAID WHAT?

“David was a man who believed passionately in this country and in its future. And we’ve lost today a fine public servant and a muchloved friend and colleague, and our thoughts are very much today with his wife, his children, and his family” - Prime Minister Boris Johnson paying tribute to Conservative MP Sir David Amess who died after being stabbed during a constituency surgery.

“This brings everything back. The pain, the loss, but also how much love the public gave us following the loss of Jo. I hope we can do the same for David now”

- Brendan Cox, widower of Labour MP Jo Cox who was killed as she attended a constituency surgery in 2016.

“Extraordinary isn’t it... I’ve been hearing all about Cop... still don’t know who is coming... no idea. We only know about people who are not coming... and it’s really irritating when they talk, but they don’t do”

- What the Queen reportedly said during an unguarded moment when she chatted with the Duchess of Cornwall and Elin Jones, the Welsh Parliament’s Presiding Officer, during a reception, above, following the opening of the Welsh Senedd. World leaders will soon gather in Glasgow for the Cop26 UN climate change conference.

“It was bloody hard work to make, just in terms of, I would sing things I didn’t even realise I was feeling or thinking, but I’m really proud of it and I feel like I can’t unlock a door for my own mental health and take the key with me, got to leave it in the door for everyone else, and I’m in a strong place now, where I feel like I can put that vulnerability out”

- Adele whose new album 30 is due for release on November 19.
