Watching Starmer at Blenheim, it occurs to me that we have been governed by children for a number of years. Toys being thrown out of the pram, ludicrous behaviour designed purely to attract attention etc. It was Govt by 3 yr olds. Thank God the adults are back in the room.

Presumably the poor man who was killed at the rally did not have God on his side

‘Hallett said preparations for a no-deal Brexit caused work on pandemic preparedness to be paused…’
Translation: Johnson prioritised batshit crazy right-wing ideology over lives. https://t.co/PjjALmTh4Q

[Paul Powlesland @paulpowlesland]

Both of the actions you see in these photos potentially amount to the offence of ‘public nuisance’.

One is punishable with “long, long prison sentences” & the other is rewarded with huge bonuses & billions in profits.

Why the disparity? What does this mean for the rule of law?

Sad news. Irreplaceable.
I hope his funeral is attended by legions of bus drivers.

When Boris Johnson left office, many said “at least he did the best anyone could for Covid.” This inquiry shows how from reality that narrative was. Thousands of people needlessly lost their lives, many of them disabled. And the Tories got busy selling contracts to mates.

I cannot stop laughing at these mad people. I just wish they weren’t all armed.

[Peter Walker @peterwalker99]

Among the many questions this raises, why *is* a London-based drinks mixer company co-sponsoring the Republican National Convention?

[Brendan May @bmay]

The people representing Britain at the Republican National Convention are Liz Truss, Boris Johnson and Russell Brand - three of the most washed up and discredited individuals this country has ever produced.

Says it all, really.

I’ve been covering Liverpool’s homelessness crisis for a while now and I’ve heard so many heartbreaking stories. This week I heard some tales of hope and community amongst the heartache.

A 🧵 that hopefully shows the resilience and kindness of people

It always amazes me how many famous people get so lucky in the Wimbledon ticket ballot.

[Miffy @miffythegamer]

This was written two weeks before Farage won his seat.

Very prescient.

[Nick Pettigrew @Nick_Pettigrew]

I think the ‘How much constituency work will he be doing?’ question has been answered.

[Philip O'Connor @PhilipOConnor5]

As an addendum to Farage being on @bbclaurak, didn't he say before the election that he would refuse to appear on BBC ever again? Further proof, were it needed, that Farage's word is pretty worthless currency.
