Abstract
We describe recent results from CMS and TOTEM on hard diffraction, diffractive jets and jet gap jet events. We also give the first sensitivities and limits on quartic anomalous couplings and axion-like particles at high mass using the LHC as a $\gamma \gamma$ collider. The predicted sensitivities with 300 fb$^{-1}$ are better by two or three orders of magnitude compared to the more standard methods at the LHC without measuring intact protons after collision

Report
This contribution summarises the very interesting and wide ranging precision and diffractive physics programme at CMS + TOTEM. A few small comments/requests are found below, but otherwise I am happy to accept this for publication.
Requested changes
1) 3-4th line of Section 1. More precisely one should say that the pomeron is one possibility for a colourless exchange (as photon exchange is also possible in general), and also giving a rough definition of the pomeron would be useful.
2) Top of page 3. Defining the survival probability might make sense.
3) End of first para of Section 2.2. There is a '?' reference.
