Do you remember during the first lockdown when every MP got given £10,000 to pay for laptops, internet upgrades and bills to allow them to work from home? Teachers are expected to stream classes from home after a 10% pay decrease since 2010 and pay for their own equipment.

Just when you think @crispymick , fireman, is a massive hero - he does this … a funny, principled massive hero! Yes!

@F1 Absolute cop-out. Sets the precedent that anyone who wants to take out their championship rival and still score points can and should do that, no matter how dangerous the move. Pathetic!

Whitty: "You've completely fucked it up. We're exactly where we were in the second week of March after all that hard work and fucking the economy over. DO IT AGAIN ... BUT DO IT PROPERLY THIS TIME!"

The retired colonel type from Surrey who called @mrjamesob had his paper thin defence of Boris Johnson destroyed in record time. Many now can't tell the difference between thoughts that meander through their brains and the truth. Sadly that now includes the government as well.

You were all furious about Owen Patterson and sewage … and yet this is much much worse … the very same people found guilty of repeatedly breaking electoral laws by the electoral commission want to get rid of … the electoral commission!!!

It’s the apathy & blindness of what is happening in Britain that’s truly terrifying. The set of bills the government is currently seeking to get through parliament is a full-scale attack on our democracy. 1/

I am constantly in awe of Yanis Varoufakis who can go on #bbcqt and always sound more eloquent and intelligent than any of our politicians in a second fucking language!

In fact it’s worse than that … #COP26 is being held in Scotland where wearing a face covering in public indoor spaces is still a legal requirement.

Pippa Crerar has played an absolute blinder here ... allowing Cummings to lie and all the ministers embarrassing themselves by jumping to his defence before releasing the second part of the story the same day. He's got to go for this.

Jacob for PM is trending and I'm going out on a limb to say that I don't think it's possible for the Conservative Party to get even more out of touch with normal British people than this moment.

Martin Bashir is clearly guilty and for the BBC to protect him was an institutional cover up ... but that's not what's being sold here is it? We're being asked to side with one side of a Royal Family feud ... and that's the side that is fine with adultery and casual racism.

Now we're out of the EU. There is nothing but the Bank of England to bail the government out. And the Bank of England have just said they're no longer prepared to do that. Truss and Kwarteng are on the very edge of actually bankrupting the UK. Growth my arse!

As a border is placed in the Irish Sea, Boris Johnson would hate people seeing a video of him telling businesses in Northern Ireland that they would never need to fill in customs forms and they should ring him up if anyone asks them to ... so whatever you do, don't retweet this.

Wow, just wow! This is huge. Someone inside the Houses of Parliament is intimidating a football commentator for speaking out against racism ... if this isn't Dominic Cummings or his minions I'll eat my hat. Your taxes fund this shit ... share this far and wide.
