Not actually a fish. Paid-up member of liberal metropolitan elite, but trying not to live in a bubble of voices I agree with - RTs are interest not agreement.
French police is investigating multiple coordinated cuts to fiber-optic cables in Marseille, cutting the city off from other cities in France and Europe as internet and phone services have been severely disrupted.
@PaulWMcCormack @Readies4Rishi@BladeoftheS To be fair if youโre moving in Tory circles, youโre not meeting a lot of conventionally attractive people. At least they have their own hair and teeth.
A reminder that #austerity did not work very well to reassure the markets the first time round - we were AAA until Osborneโs cuts started to bite.
The Conservatives have always been the #antiGrowthCoalition.

#Sunak supporters are in for a shock when it comes to a GE and they learn that being young, good-looking and only involved in half of Johnsonโs scandals is not everything the British people want in a prime minister.
@phil_I_am_24_7 @AdamBienkov@jamesjohnson252@Omnisis A longer word of equal pt size takes up more space and so appears bigger, is the point Iโm trying to make
Brexit was not the problem. The problem was the refusal of the Remainers to accept the democratic outcome, and instead they spent significant time on trying to thwart the will of the people & undermining their own country on behalf of the EU!
Lotta tories forgetting that the ACTUAL reason they pushed Johnson was his poll ratings were plummeting. Now they are hoping bringing him back will revive them
One senior Labour source salivating at the prospect of Johnson redux:
"In some sense, him running is the dream. Droning on about how they need a sensible, serious person to fix the mess they've made then that honking pudding turns up with his travelling circus trailing behind"
Not โand vote the person who would be best for the countryโ, but โand vote for the person who can keep us in powerโ. The Self-Preservation Society continues.
I hope that Members of Parliament who are voting for the next Prime Minister leave out their self interest and leave in as their choice someone who can get the public vote and not seen as a continuation candidateโฆ
