Wouldn't it be great if our elected representatives had a chance each week to ask the Prime Minister questions about the Govt's plans and actions and the PM was expected to answer them? Or, we could stick with the scripted exchange of insults that we call #PMQs
I'm delighted to see this published today. link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9…
The National Lottery has long lost the nation's attention. Why don't we start a new one where the Govt takes all the money and the winner gets a gong and, on special, occasions, a knighthood. I'd call it "You've been dubbed!" #r4today
Just my annual reminder that the Easter 'Bunny' is really a hare
Are the 20-25% of people satsified with the NHS the sames as the 20-25% intending to vote Conservative? #r4today
I may have neen watching too much of the Six Nations, but surely Chilwell should have just got 3 points for the drop goal?#ENGBRA
When it is reported that people have done something, to say "At least one person was involved" is completely uninformative. If people have done something, and no one was involved, now that would be newsworthy #r4today
Do lasers focus? I don't think so - they produce a coherent beam of light. Personally, I'd prefer "laser-like coherence" from our #r4today interviewers over "laser-like focus"
I wish they'd bring back mammoths - they must have been delicious because our ancestors ate the lot! They probably looked at the last breeding pair and thought ‘If we leave them be, there’ll be more mammoths in the future’ but then thought, ‘Sod it, they taste too good’ #r4today
“We will increase productivity in the NHS by shortening the helpline number from 111 to 11, achieving a world-beating 33% increase inefficiency in the time it takes each patient to be put on hold” #Budget2024
Gosh, the country Jeremy Hunt is describing is doing really well. I wonder where it is? #Budget2024
Garden overrun with Nuthatches this morning. Delightful!
The logical consequence of the PMs announcement tonight is that the far right of the Conservative Party is about to be expelled, he will lose his majority, and an election will be called in days. Any bets? #bbcpm
Does Mr Galloway know that the shifting of tectonic plates that he so relishes is usually associated with disasater? #r4today
I frequently wonder not, 'Has the world gone mad?', that's obvious but, 'How did it happen?'. Ergot? Mass hysteria? long-term effects of lockdown, subliminal messaging? Whatever the cause, waking up today, it seems like the dosage has just been increased #r4today
An unusual take on election politics from Rishi Sunak "Vote for me, I can't maintain law and order" #r4today
My 5-year old has decided to teach herself French using You-Tube. Her first words? "Je m'appelle then you say your name"
