More on this suggestion, and all the week's Brexit developments, in tomorrow's post on my Brexit & Beyond Blog.

[Prof. Christina Pagel - @chrischirp.bsky.social @chrischirp]

So Hancock confirms that B.1.617.2 ("India" variant) is now dominant in England.

Harries says we must remain "vigilant".

What does vigilant even mean? That we watch very carefully as a new, more dangerous, variant takes over cos it was so fun last time?

Yeah, I'm pissed off

Sometimes on twitter you come across a tweet that you can't stop thinking about. So no circles, no lists. Just a single thought. Injustice is injustice no matter how it may be framed or dressed up. But with unity there is strength

[That Civil Service tweet twice a day (fan account) @ThatCivilTweet]

Arrogant and offensive. Can you imagine having to work with these truth twisters?

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

There are few things more shameful than a $7.25 minimum wage not budging in over a decade while billionaires add $1,600,000,000,000 to their wealth during the course of a pandemic.

[Will Hutton @williamnhutton]

The debacle that is Brexit - slow moving at first but gathering force by the month. Banks and insurers move £1 trillion of assets out of UK due to Brexit https://t.co/B4FnU4ikqi

And this is also an important point, Laurence’s idea that he can somehow avoid the “political” NHS by *check notes* only being treated by private doctors that have been trained by *checks notes* the NHS, is also ludicrous https://t.co/OhxrHTWa1i

Your occasional reminder that Nicola Sturgeon referred herself to an independent QC to judge whether she’d broken the Ministerial Code

@guardian I'll believe it when they publish the Forde Report.

[Chris Grey 🇺🇦 @chrisgreybrexit]

Spot on blog from @redhistorian: "It is *because* the taxpayer isn't paying that it is so important we find out who is. Who handed benefits worth tens of thousands of pounds to our prime minister, and what they might want in return?"

[Matt Zarb-Cousin @mattzarb]

Jeremy Corbyn held a press conference during the 2019 general election where he produced a leaked report explicitly warning everyone this would happen, but there appeared to be more concern at the time about who put the documents on Reddit than there was for their actual content

Remember how we were rightly disgusted by corrupt developing countries with leaders
Who enrich themselves
Have gaudy decor
Get new planes & yachts &
Give money to already rich supporters

While much of population relies upon charity for food & disease takes 1000s of its citizens

[Aaron Bastani @AaronBastani]

A positive, modern vision from a leading Labour politician - I think I need a lie down!

[Led By Donkeys @ByDonkeys]

So many scandals swishing around Johnson, but don’t forget this one. He didn’t target Covid at the borders, instead he targeted refugees. The result was a calamity. Watch and share.

[Jon Trickett MP @jon_trickett]

1 million food parcels handed out to children in the UK last year. £41 billion of profit made by billionaires during the same time.

[Chris Grey 🇺🇦 @chrisgreybrexit]

Brexiter MPs 2016-20: the people knew exactly what they were voting for in the referendum that didn't specify what Brexit meant.
Brexiter MPs 2021: we didn't know what we were voting for in the parliamentary legislation that specified what Brexit meant.

Sigh.

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

What’s particularly sickening about the govt’s secret VIP lane WhatsApp group is their efforts, even now, to keep its contents hidden.

A high court judge just forced the issue.

Thank you @GoodLawProject for holding the govt to account so brilliantly 👊

[Chris Grey 🇺🇦 @chrisgreybrexit]

What's interesting is no one's saying 'Norway is punishing us' or 'don't they know we're sovereign equals?' So for once it's a story about the realities of Brexit that can't be framed by the usual Brexiter rhetoric and the blame can't be deflected from Brexit and the Brexit govt.

[Caroline Lucas @CarolineLucas]

I’m still trying to get action on PM’s systematic lying in parliament

The BBC asks whether people care about it

Please RT if you do
