What can I say, I used to be proud to be British & European. Now, I couldn't give a rats, I've done my bit. It's gone down the gurgler. Prove me wrong!
@TalkTV
So Muhammad Khan rushed at the Queen's coffin & Muhammad Rahman charged with the stabbing 2 police officers in Leicester Square. There's inter-racial wars going on in Leicester, boat loads being escorted across the channel, grooming gangs but a white teacher & family in hiding
@PhilipPullman
No wonder you write fantasy books.
She is a disaster but not because she is mixed race. Stop being so woke. Sick of this virtue signalling rubbish.
Only her mother attended the wedding which speaks volumes. Interview amid starving Africans and boohooing her own lot.
FGS get real
@NadiaWhittomeMP
The chancellor's name is Kwasi Kwateng
The other name you seem not to want to reach for is Suella Braverman.
They have names. They aren't defined by their skin colour. You, my dear, are a racist
@simon_schama
No. There is no national emergency and anyway, you've all spent months wanting him gone, so he has, at least for the weekend.
If you wanted him to have input, he should have been kept in post. Regard it as two fingers
@BDSixsmith
How sad that you had such a poor education yet think you can inform us.
The red poppy is in memorial of all soldiers who died in war, not just Brits but Germans, the Polish etc. Red poppies grew in fields where men fell. It isn't glorifying war, its remembering ordinary brave men

@PaulBrandITV
@GMB
Oh Kate, how disappointing of you. 'Partygate' really? His reporting style on Starmer in Durham, so very different. He isn't worthy of the seat he sits in.
Serious investigative journalism left the building decades ago. Accept that you're a magazine programme. News is unbiased
Good morning
What's your name?
Ngozi, meaning Blessing in Igbo
Where do you come from?
I'm born and bred in London but my family heritage is Nigerian. I'm here today representing Sistah Space, a charity for vulnerable black women........
Job done, am I wrong?

@LBC
this morning. One of his callers was the Sub-postmaster in Tolworth which is part of Ed Davey's constituency. 3 times he reached out to Davey, twice he was denied time the third time he was ignored. This man was spat on & received racist abuse
@farhanaclimate
You're a climate lawyer based in London & Devon. Presumably you have 2 homes which you use quite regularly. There are people in this country that can't afford the cost of getting to work and certainly couldn't afford to get to Devon and back. You have no bloody clue. 1/2
@RealDeniseWelch
So far up her own backside, she's got a wonky idea of journalism. She forgot that Matt singlehandedly fed camp got a few nights whereas she gave up at the first hurdle. Still, she's earnt her money, she can lay on a beach for a few weeks now until the show finishes. Got it made
@UnityNewsNet
If everybody did it, at least it would send a message that we don't recognise his government and that he doesn't have our respect and as an act of defiance.
Mine's off
@y_alibhai
Our Queen kept a promise to us for 70+ years. You didn't even keep the one you made when Boris became PM. If you now dislike the monarchy, feel free to leave and don't let the door hit you on the bum on the way out. Just remember who gave you shelter
@SkyNews
They will be remembered.
The Mike Ashleys
Richard Bransons
Tim Martins
The retailers who didn't heed the call to close
The corner shop owners who hiked up their prices
I hope they are repaid unkindly for their efforts
@MattGarrahan
Maybe people should have more understanding of how Brits use language. It was harmless.
Ngozi apparently from London would have understood this but chose her own path of not being gracious but ruining the reputation of an 83 year old lady who's been doing the job for 60+ years.
@boblister_poole
By the time I was 24, I'd been married since 19yo, had my daughter at 21yo & was already separated from my husband & arranging a divorce. I was working 4 jobs a day, looking after my baby & homeworking every evening because there weren't the benefits there are now. That's stress

Look Kelvin, they got around Durham, they got around the Sue Gray party by invitation
Both when movement and gatherings were restricted
They'll get around this
@TheMontyDon
Bless him. He was with you out in the rain last week on his own. I wonder if he knew and made the most of your company. So sorry, RIP Nigel
@NickBuckleyMBE
My analogy is, would you allow a stranger to climb through your back window, walk around until they've chosen the best warm & cosy bedroom, then sat at your table eating your food, while wanting the contents of your bank account & tell your daughters to wear longer skirts.
@afneil
FGS, switch things off, turn heating down, pull the curtains closed and fill draughts. Batch cook & freeze if u can. Get a power bank and rechargeable or battery lighting.
You shouldn't be allowed out on your own if you have to have government spend £15 million telling you that.
@DuncanBannatyne
Thanks Duncan. He's the one that sued the NHS. He's now got an online betting company to fleece the vulnerable and their families, now he wants our taxes to bail them out. The airline industry is likely to be a lot leaner in the next few years
@adilray
That's original, I've only seen that comment about 50 times today. By the way, he never came to England. His heart and fearlessness were such an inspiration, he became the poster boy for several countries. It's a pity we don't have his like today
@Kevin_Maguire
It is. As I live on the south coast in the immediate vacinity & you live your lofty life as one of the metropolitan elite, believe me, IT IS AN INVASION. She's speaking OUR language. why do a 1000 young men not fleeing persecution, think they can tip up and take my pension taxes
@RichardJMurphy
Believe me, it doesn't. This is a man, tasked with a job to keep government, therefore the country's wheels turning.
Civil Servants should be back at their desks on Monday or resign.
The tail doesn't wag the dog anymore.
@SholaMos1
She's 50% white and 100% liar.

@sueperkins
"Innocent children".
75% came all the way from Albania on their own, not exactly vulnerable now they're in the UK and only a few under 16.
Anything to say on grooming gangs and the rape of our precious little girls and women.....no...thought not.
@Tru_Powell
She brought it on herself. She had a plan to disrupt and it's backfired it seems. The women she helps will be welcome at any other charity or association. I don't know of any that discriminate. I hope the charities commission check her organisation over
Having spent months plotting to oust Boris for lies, obfuscation & not taking the action they want, they now want him in London doing the job they don't want him to do.
Hope you're having a great weekend
@BorisJohnson
& making the most of it.
They're already dishing dirt on the 5
@AnthonyMangnal1
No, you may not think it's about Brexit but believe me, the media doesn't run a 6 month campaign for something as trivial as the goings on in a work bubble at No10.
@AndyBurnhamGM
Are you having a laugh. You don't mind calling out what's happening from a distance but stay silent about the grooming and rape on your own doorstep. It's sickening.
@tomhfh
I don't know where you get the notion that all pensioners are rich and sailed through the boomer years. We've had it hard for a good portion of our lives from having nothing post war, pension pots robbed and now insulted by the ignorance of the young.
@robertsessford1
@AvaSantina
I feel like I'm coming to the end of my time on twitter. I can't bear the stupidity, lack of critical thought and just the constant attack on personality.
No foundation
Don't bother to check facts or history and a gimme gimme society.
I'm tired
@SkyNews
They want it all ways don't they.They denounce the UK way of life but want us to make it all better for them. No welfare, no NHS, no rehabilitation. No taxpayer's money & no security services wasting time on it. She burnt her passport,that says all we need to know about belonging
@MatthewStadlen
I bet Lady Susan has seen a fair few countries with the Queen in the last 60+ years of service.
A vexatious black woman with an obviously African name trashing her & once she's resigned says she wouldn't have been asked to resign as elders respected IN HER CULTURE. Which culture?

I went to the check out in Marks and Spencer with a bottle of NON ALCOHOLIC wine and the cashier had to call a supervisor to OK the sale. I'm 72 with grey hair. BTW, The 'wine' was ghastly and undrinkable and went down the kitchen sink

The mother, head covered, couldn't grovel enough. An uncomfortable watch.
She should've just said that he has learning difficulties & leave it at that. I'd be fighting for my kid, not excusing him & bloody angry that he'd been suspended. This wouldn't be news if it was the Bible
@PippaCrerar
I really don't care. He'd been doing his best to deal with a pandemic after securing brexit. He was in intensive care himself just a couple of months before. I really don't begrudge him having birthday cake and a beer.
@AlStewartOBE
@reporterboy
Agree. If there was going to be a VoNC it should be because the PM has made a complete faux pas. Not because the media mount a 6 mth campaign on behalf of Labour over cake 2+ yrs ago. He apologised, brought in Steve Barclay to change the culture. He learnt.
This is about Brexit
@IsabelOakeshott
Not wanting reference to her ethnicity while wearing dreadlocks, African garb and name change from Marlene to Ngozi, supported by BLM, anti royalist & Megan supporter.
Says
In her culture touching her hair is assault & her people respect old people.
Confused, you should be
@MayorofLondon
As a solicitor you will know that there is a difference between the words 'killed' and 'murdered'.
Lee wasn't killed, he was murdered.
Is this how you used to get criminals off?
By the way, the family have asked for his name not to be used for any cause, we remember silently
@KingBobIIV
@courtsnewsIRL
I agree, we're letting rapist go free because they have a different culture and jailing innocent people forced to defend themselves in their own home. I would have done the same without a doubt.
@LTHlondon
It's a word in normal usage. I've never heard it being of racial connotation.
Perhaps someone should compile a thesaurus of all the words that are unacceptable to use these days. It'll probably have to be revised 12 times a year though.
Please get over yourselves
@Rachael_Swindon
Blimey Rachael, looking at your bio, you've got a lot going on, including a cartoon pic.
When you've grown up, educated yourself on the role of constitutional monarchy and the corruption of the elected, come back. You will never find utopia unless you live in your own head.
@SholaMos1
I don't know anyone that would care that much considering a teenager died of multiple stab wounds, 3 Afghans held a 15 year old down while a 4th raped her.
We have a cost of living crisis & a London Mayor that's hampering emergency services while collecting taxes for his fiefdom
@SimplyRedHQ
What's not working? Is it because you've got to do a bit more paperwork or pay a bit more for entry. The EU could do away with it but want to punish you.
I'm more interested in the EU exploitation and plundering of poorer countries and the EU lack of integrity. They're bullies
@SaraN12533752
@Rob_E_Dresser
This is the culture we need to cancel. Surely he doesn't pay income tax anyway. I expect he thinks it's the 'government's money' not mine or yours.
I'm on pensions but still pay tax and UK pensions are some of the lowest in Europe. It's a joke.
@notcapnamerica
Has she produced evidence that the British press call her kids the 'N' word.......no, I thought not.
As mother of a prince and princess, she'd better tidy up her act, don't you think.
She's a compulsive liar and Harry has to bite his lip
@HHepplewhite
Surely, just by stating that
@lisanandy
would vote to scrap the monarchy means she, as from the date of the article, she no longer bares allegiance to the Queen now. Therefore, she has no right to be a UK MP in the House of Commons.
Surely this needs scrutinising
@Keir_Starmer
@BeckettUnite
The demographic of the UK is gradually tipping. Be careful what you wish for.
We didn't invite these young men here, they have no legal right to be here. Their human rights DON'T trump MY human rights to want my tax funding to go to the services I understood I was contributing to
@darrengrimes_
@afneil
Frightened of what I heard tonight. Not only because Corbyn has no grasp on the figures but us on a modest income would lose out under labour. The people that have lived modestly to make sure they can look after themselves being penalised and their supporters not understanding it
@alicewoolley1
He didn't say to do nothing, he just said restrictions are over but caution advised. Do you really think responsible adults need their hand holding.
It isn't Boris to blame, it's the nursing home. I hope your mum recovers well
@AndyBurnhamGM
But Labour's new policy is to take from the poor to give to the rich in the form of breakfast clubs for ALL primary school kids. So a struggling pensioner & disabled people pay 4 the kids of well off families.
I've looked after my family, it's their responsibility to feed theirs
@ClaudiaWebbe
If you had set your sights higher than threatening someone with acid, you too may be on the rich list.
I doubt you'd thinknit was an injustice being taxed just for being rich.
@Bbmorg
You mean the pro Meghan, anti royalist, BLM backed passive aggressive British black woman.
And the white British 83 yo woman who had given 60 years of loyal service to HMQ therefore the UK and commonwealth and had been at 100s of receptions & many royal tours abroad.
@JamesCleverly
I'm a white woman of 71 years. I am so grateful that most of my life has been lived during, what I call 'the sense of humour' period. My granddaughters, mindful of modern language will never know the joy of free speech, to speak and laugh freely. DoE was not racist but a joker
@SholaMos1
Succeed at what? All the wedding celebrities have cut them loose. Oprah is only hanging on for the next juicy tidbit. Netflix haven't got a real clue as to why they jumped in with a huge contract which is empty of content. Harry has no real friends. Successful at creating misery
@YvetteCooperMP
And you're a liar. You said you'd take in a refugee.....did you,,, no. What about a Ukrainian family?..... nope.
You're a virtue signallers, a cardboard politician
@kelvmackenzie
I think we have to ask how many of the population receive some sort of council subsidy and whether or not some of this debt has been recovered or whether it has increased. The ones that pay their dues will pay more. The ones who get away with it won't care
@IsabelOakeshott
@MattHancock
@BorisJohnson
Agree. There are millions of people who find it easy to criticise & put down the decision makers but none would want to walk a mile in their shoes.
The weight of 66 million lives are on their shoulders & find themselves on a hiding to nothing.
We have to trust them or we're lost
@Botanygeek
James, she's a young woman of 17 with mental issues being exploited like a child. No one is remotely threatened by her being in Bristol but our kids should be in school.We have a C19 epidemic & other events being cancelled. She isn't a saint & should be protected from her parents
@lisanandy
@bbcquestiontime
So, how do retired people on a fixed pension manage, Lisa?
It's true that a lot of younger people can't or won't cook from scratch. Don't give me busy life rubbish either. We cooked from scratch after doing washing by hand & in some cases no disposable nappies. A lot is laziness
@Mikey1732
It seems that there's momentum building to put Boris on the ballot under the rules of the Tory Party constitution. What a turn up that would be
@IsabelOakeshott
I disagree. It isn't essential, the Kinnocks are not exempt. My granddaughter is not able to have her 17th birthday celebration, I'm not going to be able to celebrate my birthday with them but we'll do it another less crucial time.We're sacrificing to keep ourselves & others safe
@carolvorders
If you like numbers, you should be helping Rachel Reeves out with hers. If you know an anthropologist, can you ask him to draw and send a picture of a woman, (an adult female) to Starmer please.
@kerrymoyles
What we found out was, like Boy George, Chris Moyles is selfish, seff centred man and didn't feed the camp either.
Matt was part of a gov't taking info from inaccurately modelled stats, remember Ferguson and his forecast of half million dead, Whitty & Vallance , Van Tam etc
@TanjaBueltmann
@BBCNews
In Kent and Sussex it is.
The authorities telling residents to keep their doors and windows closed. Kids not having places at local schools because of migrant intake.
What the heck do you think we should call it. The only time the BBC has reported something accurately probably
@Backpainandwine
Me, my daughter and now my granddaughters 16 and 18 ask to be excused. When they leave the table they help to clear, scrape and load the dishwasher too. All relaxed while finishing our conversation.
@AlexanderKalks1
A well observed thread.
They forgot that these elections are about, bins, potholes, dog poo, fly tipping and local services for the vulnerable of all ages.
Let's compare Wandswoth, Westminster and Barnet councils fir services, council tax hikes and their balance sheets in 2024
@BDSixsmith
Your dismissal of such a serious subject confirms I was right about your education. So you've read some Wilfred Owen, so what.
I do hope you save your comments & review them when you've grown up bcos every veteran who gave you freedom to speak has been disrespected by you today
@SkyNews
@jessphillips
@RidgeOnSunday
And still they argue about things that ordinary working class don't really care about.
Ordinary working class want policies that enhance their lives and help protect their jobs.
They don't care whether they are male or female just an effective opposition
Gender is so middle class
@adilray
@SueKeen1
I'm amazed more people haven't reacted because the government has it's hands tied.
Since when was it OK for the people in our coastal communities to be advised by the authorities to keep our doors & windows closed. Come on Adil, tell us why that's acceptable. You're alright jack
@CatharineHoey
@SadiqKhan
I can't see this being turned around. There is a cancer in our society now. There appears to be a deliberate attempt to disrupt & they'll wave any convenient banner to do it.
Cressida Dick & Sadiq Khan need to go. We need to start being safe again.
Unforgivable during pandemic
@sandieshoes
If the Barnet Formula makes up 85% of Scotland's budget for a pop of less than 6 million, can anyone tell me how independence works. Naval bases on sth coast are being upgraded so if nuclear is relocated that will be a loss of 1000s of naval/civil families devastating communities
@Kevin_Maguire
What have you ever done to benefit anybody. It's easy to criticise a system, a constitutional monarchy but It's strange that the whole world is paying tribute, they don't even know who you are. You haven't got the backbone to gather antimonarchists to change it, you just moan
@GBNEWS
They didn't confirm they were coming over until the last minute, apparently.
It was a historic event for his family & unlikely to happen again for 100s of years. Why on earth would he have thought it was all about them. He went from being a boy to a man & now right back to a baby
