The #Brexitdeal Boris Johnson has secured is a good one. It *does* allow for free trade deals w/ other countries. It puts decision-making back in the heart of Westminster (and Stormont). It's just not no-deal, which is why Farage takes issue with it.

Forget comparisons to May's deal - Boris Johnson has secured a good deal in its own right |...

The narrative amongst many who are sympathetic (or enthusiastic) about Brexit seems to be that Boris Johnson’s deal is miles better than the previous iteration delivered under Theresa May. Comparat...

Why do people act as if Communism is a well-meaning ideology (even if they admit it's devastating in practice)? Its intentions are deeply sinister. There is nothing fair or noble about stripping individuals of their autonomy and freedom.

*Reminder* The Truss government wants interest rates to rise faster. It's a key part of its new economic strategy. So if market reaction to this mini-Budget forces the Bank of England's hand, that is a design feature, not a design flaw, of Truss's plan.

Not only will Ardern be remembered as a leader who turned the economy into a basket case, burdened by instability – she then fled the scene once the damage was done, failing to even try to rectify it in any meaningful way.

It does not matter how ugly or vile one's comments are; when a country like the UK bans someone for their speech, it undermines its core principles of freedom and liberalism.

No, he’s siding with low income families, who are disproportionately harmed by Nanny State interventions. ‘Ordinary families’ want to make their own choices - whether that’s to be on a health kick or to order a Friday night pizza, they don’t need Government’s approval or input.

Boris Johnson is siding with big sugar over ordinary families trying to get healthy. Today I've challenged Health Secretary @matthancock to quit the Cabinet if his drive to tackle obesity is undermined by Johnson.

Lockdowns don't kill the virus, they suppress it temporarily. The pertinent question here is: what is Wales buying this time for? What actions will be taken in the next few weeks to improve circumstances for winter?

Turns out, the EU's principles extend as far as its immediate benefit, with no greater commitment to norms and international cooperation. Best of luck to Scottish nationalists, who argue they'd be better off in the EU than the UK. Treatment of NI certainly suggests otherwise.

I've thought for a long time that the party that grasps the nettle on housing will see huge electoral success. Lots of promises made, but Starmer's speech today is a game-changer. Mention of green-belt makes me think a party is finally serious about this. And it's Labour. #LPC23

People commenting on Gavin Williamson's voice - saying it undermines him in his role - aren't talking about his abilities, but rather where he comes from. These are the same people who go on about the Oxbridge domination of politics and lack of class diversity🤷‍♀️

Women in the UK are not earning 15% less on average than men, as Rachel Reeves just suggested in her #LPC23 speech. That number combines full and part time workers, so is deeply misleading (in 2022 part-time female workers earned 3% more on average!)

Mark Field's treatment of the Greenpeace activist was very aggressive. But the revelation that she was an unarmed protester could only be known after the fact. Someone else hurrying towards MPs and the Chancellor could have had much more sinister intention. 1/3

Politics is rancid. Otherwise smart and reasonable people cannot engage on the issues. Worse, they tweet out things they know to be factually incorrect, thinking its justifiable b/c they're on the 'right side'. Top tip: if you're not reporting facts, you're on the wrong side.

It’s ‘based’ around the corner and is part of the nexus. We both understand this. You’re pretending not to. My tweet’s quite clear. You lobby & you boast about providing access to ministers while seeking donations. Jog on.
