@CNviolations A while back Trump insisted on total unconditional surrender, then when that didn't happen he said Iran was begging for a deal and now he * might * get a deal (or maybe not) within 7 months? That's some 4 dimensional chess genius right there. Man, woman, person, camera, TV

@Reaps11 You'd not want to put too much on Infantino presenting it to Zohran Mamdani, however amusing that would be

@SoVeryBritish HP Sauce. Just no.

@ronrule @doodlestein Or you could just see whether they have a blue tick next to their handle

@TheEconomist I'm genuinely impressed that you managed to come up with a more goading take than "dynamic pricing keeps out non fans and is therefore good" on the previous tweets. The Economist weekend social team have gallows humour down pat

[Ellis Croft @Ellis__Croft]

@TheEconomist If you want to sell subscriptions undermining the credibility of the publication with a ludicrous clickbait headline that doesn't stand any scrutiny is rational as it means only dedicated Economist fans will pay to read. Is that how it works?

@Reaps11 calling an election was the spoiler alert on that issue

@RussInCheshire I don't think he can pardon state convictions as President, only federal. Could be wrong but I'm fairly sure that's the case

[Ellis Croft @Ellis__Croft]

@Reaps11 all well and good but could he find the inverted wing back with a precision pass after dummying the opposing forward 50 yards off his line? That seems to be the name of the goalkeeping game now. Keeping the ball out the net, less so. And don't even mention the near post

@benatipsos The "number of months since taking government" measure is clearly a deep state conspiracy against Truss who is now the graphic equivalent of the needle in the haystack

@TomBewick @implausibleblog @UKandEU The EU wasn't a "governing entity" in line with the examples you put forward. Have you got any other examples of this concept of constitutional escape velocity?

[Ellis Croft @Ellis__Croft]

This is excellent and assuming the line "it's all about perception" stands for CCHQ then not hard to see them adopting this as a better offering than their own (NB if you've not see the "gangs of ULEZ enforcers" marauding dark alleys official ad, watch it first)

@Otto_English @_bridgetheatre Definitely - take someone who claims to not like/get musicals and get the cheap immersive tickets and just have a blast. It's ace. Never seen so many proper broad grins on the way out of a show.

@DeborahMeaden Mild Max: Sunday Drive (in which our eponymous hero charges his EV using solar panels in his back yard before taking his family on a zero carbon emission spin in the lovely countryside one Sunday afternoon. They meet family friends for a vegan picnic). Box office smash

@ereuben I want to know if their sys admin mgr is Mr Password Password

@hackneycouncil Hi @hackneycouncil @mayorofhackney I have a 6 year old daughter with a persistent cough and would love help dealing with the rogue landlord who (wrongly and insultingly) dismissed this as being down to our "lifestyle choices" and refused to do anything to fix the problems.

@jonburkeUK @NatWittee What's yours? Genuine question. If there are more than 4x the number of pedestrians than cyclists (probable) then you're more likely to be killed by a car while on a bike than on foot. Helmets prevent head injury, not car accidents, so the OT is a non-sequitur in any case.

@henrymance It must have come as a terrible surprise that the man they hired - available due to apparently punching a colleague because of a lack of steak - was capable of expressing violence through opinion as well as physically. Whodathunkit?

@MattWelly @IrenaBuzarewicz 😂 excellent. HNY Welly, how you doing??
