@GMB Who gives a tiny toss as long as he is capable of leading the country effectively?

@WeAreBDAT have to say you are a massively unethical employer. I’ve worked a full academic year and you are not paying me in summer. Just find another teaching post for 6 weeks shall I? Oh wait…

[Mr P MBE @ICT_MrP]

Another day, another flippant comment made on Loose Women undermining the job of teaching.

@PrivateIncome @BBCNews Do it then.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's 'infamous' photo, which was taken as he was driven away from a police station, has been hung in the Louvre.

He denies the allegations against him.

Don’t worry Mandelson…

I’m sure Reform would have you.

Ever wondered where your tax money actually goes? 💷
@BBCNews broke it down by imagining we each handed the Government £100.

Here’s how that £100 was spent in 2023–24:

£22 → NHS
£6 → Defence
£10 → Education
£10 → Debt interest
£11.40 → State pensions
£4.15 → Working-age welfare (PIP, Universal Credit, health support)
£0.50 → Asylum system
£0.70 → Overseas aid

What strikes me most is this: immigration dominates headlines and public debate, consistently ranking as one of the nation’s top concerns — yet the asylum system accounts for just 0.5% of public spending.

A reminder that sometimes the loudest issues aren’t the largest ones.

@VirginAtlantic I can only get automated response which isn’t suitable for this issue.

[Charlotte Boakye @Boakye_Cha]

@VirginAtlantic why have you changed my flight number and time and not emailed to let me know?! Please can customer services DM ASAP please?

A Brexit MEP (Former Reform UK leader for Wales and long term Farage friend and ally) pleaded guilty to corruption and working for Russia.

Why is this not bigger news?!

[Charlotte Boakye @Boakye_Cha]

Go on Gary!

If you’re celebrating a foreign media empire, owned by billionaires, that evades billions in tax offshore while radicalising millions, finally smearing and hounding a working class woman out of a job she had to fight harder than any man to attain, then you’re a bootlicking idiot.

[Brendan May @bmay]

Seems the far right have in recent weeks decided that everyone who works in M&S is either a bra fitting predator or only speaks Hindi.

Both seem unlikely and whiff of manufactured outrage.

The cost of gluten free 'does not seem fair'! Do you agree?

This is what one of the presenters said on @BBCBreakfast today. They did a piece on how expensive gluten free food is & the reality of having no choice but to buy it. It's great to see pieces like this more regularly 🧡

[Charlotte Boakye @Boakye_Cha]

@AnthonyAinsdale Oh yes, when marital rape exemption was a thing.

[Charlotte Boakye @Boakye_Cha]

@MandaMaes_1 All of the above

Teachers don’t burn out from working hard. They burn out from working hard while being undermined at every turn.
