@sarahsackman Given that Jewish & Persian members of your constituency have said in media that they participated in raising flags of the country in which they live, can you please supply us with PROVEN statistics of people who have complained to you that they feel "othered"?

@iancollinsuk @TalkTV The "number of crossings" or "number of boats" is not the same as the number of people - the boats are now twice the size!

@iancollinsuk @TalkTV The vacancies are simply not there for the young - a pal's 19 year old daughter has been in tears having applied for dozens of jobs, up against 100 applicants for the same job, and DEI policies.

@Irina_exh Roger Daltrey (The Who).

@iancollinsuk @TalkTV It seems "left" sympathisers can murder with relatively little impunity, while "right" sympathisers are incarcerated ad-infinitum for looking at someone in a funny way.

@iancollinsuk @TalkTV I would love to read that car-shunt lady's insurance claim form - I bet the staff there are just aching for it to arrive! "I was proceeding down Acacia Avenue when I noticed..."!

@petercardwell @TalkTV Should expanding defense ever lead to conscription, I wonder if exemptions would be allowed on religeous or culteral gounds?

@tonyiommi He finds time to support worthy younger bands too... (especially with a Freddie-esque singer!). And still with his self-built 'Red Special' guitar. (My old pal since Bishop Vesey school days Simon Bradley co-wrote the book with Brian.) https://t.co/WzccqU4mHB

@petercardwell @TalkTV I think your contributors were more likely referring to Troy Tempest out of 'Stingray'.

@acuset857 @joeroganhq As if the hospitals themselves wouldn't stick someone in an ICU bed when they know a TV crew is visiting.

@iancollinsuk @TalkTV I also dip into @LBC on their Youtube clips, just to get a broad view of the political spectrum. I can rarely get past the JOB monologue - often a word salad about himself that is utterly incoherent, and making every issue "Farrij's" fault!

@petercardwell @TalkTV Boulton seems to be a horrible man - he was infamously caught on a hot mic and hot camera berating Beth Rigby with the F word because she was a tad late sitting down on set during a covid OB. (I kept a recording.)

@virtualash C'mon Ash - Burnham was in short trousers when Pebble Mill was demolished. The BECTU union discovered that brown envelopes where involved in the BBC HQ shoe-horning BBC Birmingham into the Mailbox. £4000 pa peppercorn rent to £2M a year!

[Andy WeThePeople @AndyWeThePeople]

@andrejpwalker Seriously, André, talking over Ash when he's doing a summary into a commercial break, probably instructed from the gallery, is driving me mad. Retired commercial radio bloke myself from ILR in the 80s - I'd forgive give Ash for popping you on the hooter! Stop it!

[Andy WeThePeople @AndyWeThePeople]

@andrejpwalker @virtualash @TalkTV Burnham was clearly reading from a script (like Starmer). I wonder who wrote it?

[Andy WeThePeople @AndyWeThePeople]

@JohnCleese It may seem the Pythons are back to writing hysterically implausible TV chat show spoofs:
“...thank you, Mister Fortesque-Smythe. And now, a man with a bin on his head…”. (Only in England.)

[Andy WeThePeople @AndyWeThePeople]

@iancollinsuk @TalkTV DECADES of having "Get In, The Bin" as a catchphrase finally bears fruit!

[Andy WeThePeople @AndyWeThePeople]

@iancollinsuk @TalkTV As someone who moans at modern parents giving their toddlers phones, I mourn the old days - I used a Pebble Mill edit suite to make a 3 hour VHS of Telletubbies for my lad! Thankfully no long-term effects - he grew out of it when he turned 18.
