@clark_aviation Likewise. Thanks for your posts; a sadly all too rare and enjoyable ray of sunshine.

@DrOsitaMba @SangitaMyska If we don’t then it’s all the more reason to have someone sensible and credible in opposition to hold the govt to account. Not sure what point you’re trying to make here. Maybe you aren’t either?

@DavidGHFrost Which taxes will you increase elsewhere then? Still amazed that with your track record, you have the gall to lecture anyone on economics. How do you square this with your own record in government?

[Chris Mayhew @ChrisMayhew9]

@thetimes Literally wild about Brexit supporting newspapers and politicians suddenly waking up to the difficulties faced by farmers. Keep up the work.

@AlexTaylorNews He voted for it, I think? Man complains of the pain after punching himself in the balls.

@DavidGHFrost @Telegraph Sit down.

[Chris Mayhew @ChrisMayhew9]

@DavidGHFrost @RobertJenrick The ‘silent majority’ he was on about earlier are likely to stay silent. It’s going to take at least one more leadership contest to put the party of Thatcher and Churchill back on track. They must be turning in their graves at neutron star velocity at this Reform tribute act.

@EmilyKerr36 @AvantiCycling Just out of curiosity, how cold does it have to be for you to wear gloves? I started putting mine on weeks ago!

@steverichards14 I don’t understand the deference to the interviewer. It would be better to ask precisely which people are angry and say you’re sorry to hear that, but the only way to take away the anger is to have an honest dialogue without the emotion.

[Chris Mayhew @ChrisMayhew9]

@pmdfoster @FT @PickardJE It did seem a bit of an odd thing to be doing. The value add to the economy is negligible as with FTAs. There isn’t much interest in the latter and as both are policies to keep Tory backbenchers happy, it makes sense to bin both hare brained ideas.

@CcibChris ‘A German prototype stealth fighter…’. Was it photographed by a Canberra as well by any chance?

@tempest_books It’s an absolutely beautiful plane in the same way the Gannet is. Recently made the Trumpeter kit of this and really enjoyed the build. A shame that it suffered from so much sodding about with the original design, but it solved all the problems of using turbo props.

[Chris Mayhew @ChrisMayhew9]

@DAaronovitch Yes. Which is interesting because I’d not have thought her natural position was to argue for better conditions for prisoners. Perhaps she’s more of a liberal than she lets on? 😂

@jrbando @OxfordDiplomat @PalStudies @IrePalestine @Palestine_UN @Hind_Gaza @mehdirhasan @HossamShabat @mohammedakunjee @wizardbisan @owenjonesjourno You would think, after all the decades of anti semitic tropes about Jews ‘owning’ things, that anyone trying to make a legitimate argument in support of Palestine, would know enough to stay clear of this stuff. It is so tiring to keep hearing these things.

@drmcopeman @julianHjessop @paullewismoney Again, the same argument about Schengen has been made for years now. And the Euro. It’s all going to fall apart. Maybe tomorrow, we don’t know and have no evidence. But it will soon!

[Chris Mayhew @ChrisMayhew9]

@drmcopeman @julianHjessop @paullewismoney The dwindling band of Brexit supporters have been saying exactly that since the mid 20th century. You’re like those ‘end of the world’ sandwich board people. It’s about as convincing as all that stuff about ‘great trade deals with Asia’.

[Chris Mayhew @ChrisMayhew9]

@CcibChris There’s one at Gatwick Aviation Museum and it does engine runs. It is deafeningly loud and extremely good fun.

[Chris Mayhew @ChrisMayhew9]

@OldLondonW14 @MCCOfficial Look at this.

[Chris Mayhew @ChrisMayhew9]

@SBarrettBar 23/06/2016?

@vivamjm Wellington, Halifax, Blenheim, Lincoln. It looks like the Wellington has been captured by the Nazis, therefore making it Das Boot?
