My parents were on disability benefits - my father had osteoarthritis. By feeding me, the state saved itself more money than by treating me for malnutrition in hospital. And now, I pay back more in tax than we ever got in benefits. Food for children is quite a small investment.

Being a woman: my "outside" day finishes at sundown. If I haven't taken the dog for a walk/jogged by then, I can't. In the winter, it often means the choice between exercise and work. Today, I had to stop work at 4 to exercise. My husband worked until 6, and is now off for a run.

How lovely that Bob Mortimer is trending simply because everyone just chose today to talk about how unbelievably excellent he is. He's a scientifically observable percentage of the world's sum total of joy.

Marcus Rashford's timeline swells your heart - people across the country doing something about feeding kids at Christmas.

Imagine having to cos-play being normal - and the result being you end up putting petrol in someone else's car before getting into your Bentley that's hidden round the corner NORMAL SO NORMAL

Confirmed by Treasury sources that this Kia is not Rishi Sunak’s car but is actually owned by a Sainsbury’s employee. The Chancellor apparently paid for the petrol.

TBH, if ballerina Fatima DOES end up crushing all her dreams to work in Cyber, I hope she's the one who notices they're using a version of Excel from 2003 and that it will fuck up the whole trace-and-trace campaign #getintherefatima

Person having the worst day today: outside my house, the driver of the W5 has accidentally pressed the "THIS BUS IS UNDER ATTACK - PLEASE DIAL 999" announcement button, and doesn't know how to cancel it. It broadcasts from a speaker on the roof.

Amazing that Penny Mordaunt is the only person in the Cabinet willing to vote on this latest Boris Johnson shit-show. If the Prime Minister doesn't have the balls to discipline someone in his own party over, well, a party, how can he stand up to Putin? Or even fight off a wasp?

There needs to be a word for when you're comforting your sobbing teenage daughter's sorrow over Harry Styles seeming to be into older women, whilst also putting on lipstick and mouthing "I am coming for you, Harry" in the mirror.

I've just found some "lady scientists" who reckon the best advice is to go down on your wife for half an hour, then find somewhere other than the hallway to store your bike.

Simple joy: last year, I put a nesting box on the side of the house, in the wisteria above the patio. This morning, I can hear the baby blue-tits have hatched, and are cheeping. Best £25 ever.

I've now re-read Marina's column three times, and I genuinely don't think there will be a better one in 2021. It's kind of depressing, but everyone else should just pack up and have the year off:

Good that Boris Johnson is kicking off an inquiry that ultimately asks if he was trustworthy, competent and intelligent enough for the job of being Prime Minister by claiming he can't remember the passcode to his phone. I feel like we might already have the inquiry's conclusion?

Don't want to big-up my sex too much - women don't do that - but can't help but note the big thing about the Oxford vaccine is that you can "store it in a normal fridge." Of course it took women to invent a vaccine you can store in a normal fridge.
