#postofficeinquiry Given the grilling AVDB is getting I bet Vennels has opened an oveerseas account and booked a flight!!!!!!
It is a sad day for British politics. As the vile Rwanda bill passed the @Conservatives lost the final tattered remains of any humanity they had. THEY DO NOT SPEAK FOR ME.

Hello Airline owners & Shareholders. If you ship even ONE refugee from UK to Rwanda, you are off my shopping list for good. Got it? Thanks.
Hopefully any airline supporting the #Rwanda horror will be boycotted by decent humans
#StGeorgesDay The day in 2024 Britain became an irresponsible, totally unethical bully, paying #Rwanda to be our thug. Thanks to #RishiSunak
Today @RishiSunak ended our right to call ourselves GREAT Britain. He is an embarrasment, forcing victims of traffickers to be sent to an unsafe penal colony. #Rwanda
#BBCNews How to radicalise a whole country. Watch a doc showing Garza pre October & notice the many women wearing western clothing. Watch the news now & you won't see one
#DisabilityTwitter We need every disabled person and ally to unite and fight and hit these Tory bastards back. We know you’re scared. But we need mass mobilisation. On the street online however you can. We need you to support us now as we support you. Stronger together
#SaturdayKitchen Didn't the Greek cook make that dish on This Morning a couple of weeks ago?
#postofficeinquiry All this dithering and paper shuffling is to waste time
#LooseWomen I'm guessing the woman with the plastic face is a Love Island left over?
#postofficeinquiry With the news this morning, Sunaks way to hit the poor instead of the rich tax dodgersand really corupt MP's, and this guys pathetic attempt at playing the innocent. God help any cold callers today🤬
Hey #Sunak Work is not the onnly way to get money, you can marry a Billionaires daughter too
#PostOfficeInquiry You just know Jason Beer is now swearing into his cioffee cup!
#PostOfficeInquiry Why do I feel like a bully watching this guy give evidence? I'm thinking the law society will be very busy soon.
#PostOfficeInquiry Have the post office gone around the world to find the most incompetent lawyers? They don't know the most basic of rules.
#Aldisnextbigthing The only one I would buy is the boozy sauce. I don't understand how people find rubber,y tasteless cheese delicious

Guys, in the 3 years I’d used Ryanair for my flights. It’s cheaper. However, after I saw that the Ryanair Boss happily offered to fly the poor refugees to Rwanda, I made a decision. My arse will NEVER SIT ON A RYANAIR PLANE EVER! That’s it. I don’t make drama. F**k off @Ryanair
Reading tweets about folks with LADA and type 1 diabetes being misdiagnosed as type 2. Reminds me of getting my blood tested at age 12. My doc thought I had anemia and my mom had to insist on screening me for t1d because her dad had t2 and my symptoms matched diabetes.
I’m imagining the headlines tomorrow:- ‘Newly appointed UN ambassador, @Carolynontweets, achieves peace in the Middle East’ Maybe not. But she was sooooo annoying to the hospital today that within half an hour of her phone call, they rang me with a date for surgery!❤️ #Legend
Happy Friday, outrageously attractive people of the Internet. A double coffee fuelled gallop around the sun-kissed local park has got the heart beating. Everybody appears to know @BillyCockerSpan. Cute, until the dog leads get tangled up while he's being a tart 😬
Hi @AlexScott I notice you are using a Lingo type system which is great to see and i'm glad you are data hungry and want to know more about your glucose patterns. Did you know Lingo is not intended for medical use or for the management of diabetes? Did you also know that…
This is what the world sees. #T1D are fighting for our lives not a health fad. We are denied insulin pumps & have to fight for them we look like we want a new toy not life saving technology #DiabetesTechCantWait #ThisIsntGoodEnough @UKWomensHealth @jenni_minto @neilcgray
@purplepickles @iDrSunny Yes before my time.. things go around and round don’t they! 🤦🏼♀️
@purplepickles @iDrSunny NMC also refuse to regulate the scope creep and leave it up to the employer. Which is unhelpful++ to staff in the NHS at present. so you can imagine, most employers make it up & why wouldn’t they want them to do more for little money?
@purplepickles @iDrSunny NA = nursing associate. NA’s are their own registered role on the NMC register. They are capped at B4 role but currently being highly misused & discriminated against with scope creep++ Managers feel they can substitute RNs & it devalues our role
It is a sad day for British politics. As the vile Rwanda bill passed the @Conservatives lost the final tattered remains of any humanity they had. THEY DO NOT SPEAK FOR ME.
Dear @RishiSunak The Supreme Court is not ‘foreign’ Judges are not ‘lefty’ Membership of the ECHR is entwined with the Good Friday Agreement You have no mandate. You have no authority You have no integrity You have no morals #rwanda #GeneralElectionN0W #RishiSunak
"Parliament will sit there tonight and vote no matter how late it goes," Rishi Sunak says The PM adds "no foreign court will stop us getting flights off" Follow live bbc.in/3W64lVZ
The Rwanda Bill sets a new low point for the United Kingdom. I personally am ashamed to be a citizen here. We all share this shame.
Hello Airline owners & Shareholders. If you ship even ONE refugee from UK to Rwanda, you are off my shopping list for good. Got it? Thanks.
#RwandaNotInMyName If you don't want refugees, then stop creating them by invading their countries & stealing their resources
I think I was about thirteen when I read a book on Auschwitz. I read, in detail the horrors and cruelty. I couldn't comprehend that humans were capable of such evil. I remember thinking how did ordinary German people feel ? I think I know now. I'm ashamed. #RwandaNotInMyName
Sunak the human trafficker will be smuggling those poor asylum seekers out in the dead of night probably. He won't want protesters turning up & ruining his moment. Oh wait, no one is allowed to protest anymore. Vote on 2nd May. He hasn't removed that right (yet) #SunakOut
So now I live in a country whose parliament has voted to send asylum seekers to Rwanda, in breach of their human rights. I’m not proud to be British, I’m disgusted by the racism, homophobia, misogyny & cruelty exhibited by 25% of people & all Tories here. Shame on Brexit Britain!
Angela Rayner was wrong when she called the Tories scum..... they're heinous, repulsive, revolting, odious incompetent scum, but even that doesn't come close in expressing how I feel about this shower of shite. I've never used the C word but these fuckers are pushing my limit.
What shabby news to wake up to. A humane & legal way to stop the boats is to accept 🇫🇷 offer of creating an asylum seeker processing centre staffed by UK Border agents in northern France. Instead, the world’s oldest democracy debases itself again #Rwanda 😔
The ignominy is complete. The Tories have destroyed any ounce of self-respect this country had left. They are bastards and I hate them for it, and more than I thought possible. I could go further, but it would surely jeopardise my Twitter account. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…
I wake up this morning to the sight of what my country has become. It is a pale shadow of its former self. The vile Tory Rwanda bill makes international criminals of all of us. It uses vulnerable people as pawns to be chucked away like so much rubbish. #RwandaNotInMyName
