Weird how unbelievably trivial things most of the public don’t give a damn about can dominate news for a fortnight, and nobody seems to know quite how or why this keeps happening
All the crises we face are interconnected. The benefit of Twitter is that experts on different subjects could talk to each other and learn from each other in a public forum — especially on topics that the mainstream media avoids, and especially as institutions fail the people.
This is me a terminally ill man with 85% bone cancer,im asking for as many people as possible to support & follow me as i take on the government on behalf of the thousands of terminally ill people being penalised by the dwp.I can't do it without your help
Hey, all you #BackBoris muppets!
You do realise that what they do to refugees today they will do to you tomorrow if you are deemed to step out of line, don't you?
The govt. won't just take away the human rights of people you don't like.
It could be you. Your son. Your parents.

It took me 10 minutes to walk the length of the Covid memorial wall. Over 180k hearts - each a person loved, a life cut short.
These are the reasons why Boris Johnson has to go. A bare-faced liar & screw-you law-breaker who’s made utter fools of us all.
Martin Lewis [@MartinSLewis] on @BBCr4today just now: "I am slightly worried that we are seeing potentially a deliberate narrative shift that effectively says the entire cost of living crisis is due to Ukraine and we all need to make sacrifices - that is not correct"
What is the "red tape" Johnson wants to cut?
It's likely to mean the public protections that permit a safe and decent life. Eg:
Rules to stop workers being exploited
Rules to stop Grenfell-style disasters.
Rules to stop pollution.
When he says "freedom", ask "freedom for whom?"
The Government say massive delays at Dover this week are nothing to do with Brexit, while banning staff from giving interviews.
One customs agent took us inside to speak to drivers who had been waiting up to 24 hours.
Every single one of them blamed Brexit.
Plan B public health measures end tomorrow; but they shouldn’t. This is a political move by the government🚨
Lots of people are still vulnerable to COVID-19, and those people matter💙
Let’s send the government a message. RT if you’ll continue to wear masks 👍

Watched #DontLookUp by @GhostPanther yesterday. It felt very real. Unless we address the distortion of reality by politicians aided by complicit media backed by vested interests, we are never going to be able to deal with any crisis.🧵
How does a government get millions of parents to agree to a plan to deliberately infect their children?
By pumping out propaganda: “schools are safe”, “children don’t get it”, “children don’t pass it on”.

With @DavidGHFrost, for @BorisJohnson, tweeting 1 am threats at Ireland’s government … what’s up?
“Ever bought a fake picture?” Smiley asks Esterhase, in Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. “The more you pay for it the less inclined you are to doubt it”.
A (very long)🧵/1.
I've just signed the @GoodLawProject petition asking @GOVUK to conduct a full review of the companies who did not deliver adequate PPE and recover the profits from those who benefitted.

3 out of 4 of our household have covid. The 4th is 10 and the gov say he should be in school. But the 2 of us who could take him there are ill and isolating. Gov guidelines are that the school now have to mark him down as an unauthorised absence. It’s a dangerous shambles.
