There is an Irish phrase I wish you all knew and used in the UK: “making a hames of something”. For example in the sentence “The BBC is making a fucking hames of this”. You can probably guess the meaning.

What a dreadful generation of wet, weak, snowflakes this shower are. An embarrassment to 300 years of parliamentary debate. Would sooner cry for apologies and sackings than actual mount a defence of their own policies.

Manchester/Salford, The Lowry: if I am to reach the South Pole I will need a good coat, and two of my most hardy friends, and a tote bag of original early 90s vinyls; Who cares about the baby, just find the Red Book!; Prostates are easy, tour dates are difficult. @youhadtobethere

"What a pr*ck."

"F*ck you Rishi Sunak, and f*ck the Tories."

Simon Pegg isn't a fan of the PM's compulsory maths plan for pupils.

"Do you work in finance?"
"No I’m homeless"

Holy mother of fuck. Sunak has zero awareness of how anybody else lives their lives.

1970s Britain owned its water, transport, mail, energy, millions of council houses and sat on a huge North Sea reserve. The national debt was £80bn.

2022 Britain has no assets and a national debt of £2.5 trillion.

Neoliberalism started by Thatcher has destroyed the UK.

@rimalu35 Terrible, terrible news - had the pleasure of being his opponent and appearing before him on numerous occasions. A true gent, always friendly and a lovely, lovely man. Thought with his family and friends.

Strap in, we’re going on a ride from Westminster to the Isle of Man. This is the story of Michelle Mone and that £29m.

"You can’t borrow your way to growth" says Hunt. Well, you might want to tell Sunak that.

[Beth Rigby @BethRigby]

£55bn of fiscal consolidation (Q whether post ‘24 spending cuts will happen). But in real world, UK households disposable incomes fall to lowest levels since records began in 1956/7. 7.1% fall. Incomes down to 2013 levels. Will only recover to 21/22 level in 27/8. A lost decade
