I'm genetically part LibDem (though the StarmerLabour gene is by far the dominant gene in me). But I always wonder why the LibDems do those weird stunts, like the egg timer thing, and then wonder why they don't get more votes. (The "Bollocks to Brexit" stunt was a good stunt.)
#bbclaurak Has Dan Poulter chosen now to defect because he knows Sunak is going to call the general election tomorrow? (Have I become a conspiracy theorist?)
#bbclaurak I don't know much about Dan Poulter, but he is of course right to say the Tory Party has gone from centre-right to nationalist party. (That round rug that Laura K and Wes S are sitting on constitutes a trip hazard. Where does that spiral staircase lead to?)
No need to worry, they won’t come here. The deterrent effect of Rwanda will see them heading for Ireland. #immigration #RishiSunak
So, @Nigel_Farage - one of the founders & owners of @reformparty_uk - can present an “impartial” programme on a TV “news” channel during the general election according to the broadcasting regulator @Ofcom. The leader of the party @TiceRichard & its only MP @LeeAndersonMP_ can…

Easy win for today’s best St George’s Day tweet…
#rishiSunak is a useless PM; Tory leadership candidate #SuellaBraverman is a disgusting, psychologically warped creature; Tory leadership candidate #LizTruss is stark raving mad, etc. Anyone who votes Conservative in the local elections or general election this year is insane.
Tory Jesus implements Sunak policy 🤣🤣 #ToriesOut654 #SunakOut544 #GeneralElectionNow #Sunackered #ToriesUnfitToGovern #ToryScumOut
What?? 😄

Right, he's done something useful at last, he's put his legacy in place, so will #RishiSunak now call an election and fuck off? bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…
Funny that Farage, GB News et al are not blaming NATO for the Brussels mayor's decision to intervene in the conference. Like the EU, NATO is headquartered in Brussels.
#R4Today #bbcr4 #ThoughtForTheDay I'm abating my malice and assuaging the abatement of hate by abating, or blunting, or diminishing the non-assuaging of malicious hate. Or something or whatever.
I don't like former useless Prime Minister and slimey grifting Tory David Cameron. But I really quite like our Foreign Secretary, Lord Cameron. Very strange.

The Mail is toxic, says the Met. They’re right.
This is an inaccurate headline that will only fuel community concerns. The decision to cover the memorial was taken by park authorities, not the police. As the paper’s own article makes clear, it is a precaution Royal Parks have taken for a number of different events.
13 years of this…….. 🙄 #edballsday
@colmflynnire My father was a postman for 20 years. For many years he cycled from Cobh to Midleton daily, picked up his postbag and then did a 10 mile route through Lisgoold and Leamlara, back to Midleton and then back to Cobh on his bike. Many of his drops were to farms that had no roads.
(Epenthetic is a fancy way of saying a "pop-up" sound, usually for ease of pronunciation, like the the "b" in "thimble" or "number" (note German "Nummer"). My Berkeley Doktorvater always said things like "popup vowels," to the chagrin of the linguistic purists in the department.
My kids in English class never believed me when I said "you" is cognate with "euch". Of course it is! English lost that German -r (actually an IE s) at the end of pronouns: wir=we er=he (latin is) ihr=ye English generalized the objective form of ye, 'you' (=euch) into all forms.
When you are on a deadline writing and there comes a power cut on your bloody boat meaning the wifi is gone and no heating while it's raining non stop and you start asking yourself why exactly you live on this bloody rainy island... and then..
Britain needs a media that tells the truth, and reports accurately and fairly

There is so much more I could have said .. Uzbekistan is where Ulugh Beg’s observatory was mapping stars in the 15th century, and the native region of the man from whom we get the word ‘algorithm’. But mainly this is about travels with my mother!

As I used to advise witnesses appearing before me at the select committee: if you don’t know the answer, just say so. 😬
'I've got my lines!' After answering, 'I don't know', to a caller's question on voter IDs, Shadow Minister Darren Jones receives a text from Labour to clarify the party's position.
