Stimulating debate on the dysfunctional state of local & national politics & policies & how to bring about meaningful progress and improvements

[Guy Verhofstadt @guyverhofstadt]

20 years on, Putin's domestic legacy will be marked by stagnation & oppression. His foreign legacy? Blood, lies & poison. The West should open its hearts & doors to the long suffering people of Russia. One day they will demand a brighter future.

How the media works...

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

There's a huge amount I disagree with @joswinson on. But she should be strongly applauded for her unequivocal support for trans rights. In a country with such a powerful anti-trans lobby and viciously bigoted rightwing media, it was a courageous stance to take.

Reweet if you'd like to buy John Bercow a drink.

[The Secret Barrister 🦋 @BarristerSecret]

Imagine if news editors considered the endemic problems in our justice system to be as worthy of wall-to-wall coverage as an ill-advised tweet about a fox.

[Amy Siskind @Amy_Siskind]

Trump, who believes climate change is a hoax, has removed a pollution map from the internet. Disappearing information is another hallmark of authoritarianism.

I wonder what is causing the surge in applications?

Ye, me too!

[Farley Davenport @FarleyDavenport]

I have never been so politically angry. Anyone else feeling like this?

[Sir Geoffrey of Lancaster #FBPE: 🇪🇺 @geoff674]

Problem: That BBC video of Laura Kuenssberg breaking electoral law & having privileged access to Peter Lilly’s (ex Thatcher sycophant & all round piece of sh1t) postal vote counting company. Well, how do I stop retweeting it as the BBC want me to stop?

[John Crace @JohnJCrace]

Care to remind us who was the foreign secretary who got her sentence increased and is taking the People’s Government to Mustique for New Year?

[sarah murphy @13sarahmurphy]

To anyone who has done anything to challenge the epic dishonesty, corruption and ignorance of Brexit.. To anyone who has stood up against the racism, the injustice, the bigotry..
To anyone who has given a shit and will continue to do so...
Thank you.
Happy Christmas to you all. X

Johnson wants us to stop talking about #Brexit after 31 Jan.

No.

By next election, we'll associate Johnson & every Tory MP with Brexit's damage to:

- NHS & public services
- Jobs
- Cost of living
- Homelessness
- Scientific research
- Environment

They will be held responsible

Big Ben should remain silent on Brexit Day https://t.co/HLZfFCC0P7

Merry Christmas to you too, and every good wish to you for 2019 @dontbrexitfixit . We aren't over. We aren't done.

[Andrew Parnall @dontbrexitfixit]

Merry Christmas everyone, everyone who I have marched with, everyone who has supported me and given me the strength and inspiration to carry on. 2019 is nearly over but we aren't, we aren't over, we aren't done. Merry Christmas everyone. Xx

[The Zionist Entity aka Keira #Antifascist #NoNazis @keira_churchill]

Oh no. I accidentally retweeted a video of Laura K incriminating herself and caused it to spread a little further. I hope nobody else is this clumsy.

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

I hear many say “2019 was the year when the public woke up to the climate crisis”.
This is a misconception.
A small but rapidly growing number of people have started to wake up to the climate crisis.
This has only just begun. We’re still only scratching the surface.

[Goole Deserves Better #FBPE #NotInMyName @Better_Goole]

If this is true, it confirms my worst fears about the nature of the present Tory party and the governement that was elected on 12th December.

[Peter Jukes @peterjukes]

Is this right? @JamesCleverly - has Paul Golding of Britain First really been allowed into the Conservative Party?

[Goole Deserves Better #FBPE #NotInMyName @Better_Goole]

Far too hasty. Leave it a bit longer ;-) Hope ur chest nfection is better.

[Steve Price - Goole Matters 💙 @SteevPrice]

Time to do some Christmas shopping I think. I'm a bit early this year. 🥳
