@NickyMorgan01 The PM and the entire cabinet need to “move on” so the country is permitted to return to something approaching sanity and an environment where the spinning and spewing of baseless facts and empty promises is behind us.
There are two things we have to achieve in the UK before we can recover from the appalling mess the Tories have created
1. Independent regulation of our Press, the least trusted printed media in Europe
2. Proportional Representation, to weaken the influence of extremists
Hey @RishiSunak this is how #MobRule started
Within seconds of publication these MPs got death & rape threats. One had to have armed police protection. Many caved in to threats & abuse & didn’t vote as they wanted to.
Parliament & a compliant media let the rot set in #BrexitBrokeBritain
Millions of us have had to put up with a decade and a half of hundreds of elected people in one party run roughshod over this nation, leaving decrepit towns, third world roads and corruption on a gargantuan scale.
But we're supposed to lose our fucking minds over the election of one man in Rochdale?
This is your reminder that Cleopatra lived closer in time to today than she did to the construction of the Pyramids of Giza. They are impossibly old.
More mind-blowing facts about the world's most enigmatic structures:
1. They are aligned to true north with incredible accuracy. The Great Pyramid is just 3.4 arcminutes off perfect alignment, or precision of ~1 millimeter per meter of the length of its base.
2. The Great Pyramid was the tallest building in the world for around 3,800 years, until it was surpassed by Lincoln Cathedral in the 14th century.
3. They do not contain any hieroglyphs or paintings, nor were any burial treasures or mummies found within. By contrast, the tombs at the Valley of the Kings are decorated with intricate hieroglyphic texts and artworks from floor to ceiling.
4. They were once covered in gleaming white limestone casing stones (as pictured). Some researchers also think the capstones at the top were plated with precious metals.
5. ~2.3 million stone blocks make up the Great Pyramid, averaging 2.5 tons in weight. Quarrying these with little else than copper saws, chisels and pounding stones, then transporting and lifting them into place, is the most remarkable engineering feat ever accomplished.
6. The casing stones and inner chamber blocks of the Great Pyramid were fit together with such high precision that a knife's edge cannot fit between them.
7. The Great Pyramid weighs nearly 6 million tons in total. Today, the only structures exceeding this are the Great Wall of China and the Three Gorges Dam.
8. When Napoleon visited the Great Pyramid in the late 18th century, he (correctly) calculated that it contained enough material for a 10-foot high wall around the entire perimeter of mainland France.
9. Of the thousands of hieroglyphs found across Egypt, none of them mention how the pyramids were built or how the Egyptians cut stone. In fact, there are very few Ancient Egyptian texts found which mention the pyramids at all.
Appointing reckless #Brexit referendum instigator Cameron as Foreign Sec is a democratic embarrassment. If Sunak can’t even find one of his 350 MPs to take on one of the most important jobs in Govt, why on earth should this party be governing at all? We need a #GeneralElectionNow
In case you missed it, effigies of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Home Secretary Suella Braverman paraded through the streets for the #LewesBonfire
This is about as British as our protests get 😄
BBC News write, "Seven bonfire societies each produces an effigy, which typically reflect current affairs, and are later burned in fields outside Lewes - along with a traditional Guy Fawkes"
Here's another for you @SuellaBraverman. 18 year old boy from Enfield. His Mum dies and he has no family. He ends up homeless living in a shed. He gets my contact details and I help him. I put him in the Travelodge on the A10 for 2 weeks until I can find him a room in a housing association. I knew the staff so this was possible. He was scared, cold, wet, and starving when I picked him up. He cried for hours. Anyhow we looked after him and now he's doing a degree in engineering. It was not a lifestyle choice for him. And I'm sure he'd be more than happy to educate you on this.
TORY PARTY - just the last 9 days
Bob Stewart MP....guilty racial abuse
Crispin Blunt MP...arrested on suspicion of rape & possessing banned substance
Peter Bone MP....suspended for bullying & sexual misconduct
#CovidEnquiryUK
Matt Hancock wanted to decide "who should live or die "
Endless gut wrenching testimony insulting the very fabric of this country.
What do we have running the UK?
An entitled, arrogant, greedy, divisive, useless, irresponsible, morally bankrupt, bunch of what?!
A 1977 interview with 108 year old Mrs Florence Pannel who was born in 1868. She shares her memories and speaks about life for women in Victorian times. Born before the aeroplane and 101 when man landed on the moon. Her accent is remarkable.
Well, well, well,
Have a watch of this…
Govt voted to relax laws on letting water firms pump sewage into our waters
Why?
Because water firms could no longer get the chemicals needed to treat the water
Why?
…BREXIT
Reminder that Argentina was once one of the richest nations on Earth and a rival of the U.S. - hence the common phrase, "as rich as an Argentine".
What went wrong?
Some incredible facts about the Argentinian economy in the early 20th century:
✅ As rich as the U.S. per capita at the turn of the century
✅ Top 10 wealthiest nations globally per capita by 1914
✅ GDP grew 6% annually during the 43 years to 1914 (fastest in the world)
✅ Argentinian exports peaked at ~4% of world trade during the 1920s
✅ Argentina was still as rich as much of Europe as late as 1950
NAUGHTY, NAUGHTY!
I hear there are still some people in the water industry trying to push the line around Whitehall that it's going to take £600bn to fix sewage dumping.
Naughty boys and girls, naughty, naughty. Go sit on the naughty step, you know that's a downright lie.
Michael Gove scrapped the £56bn school building project in 2010 that was set to replace every single RAAC school in the UK.
He then replaced it with nothing.
Fast forward 13 years and they are all falling down.
Whose fault is it?
Having failed to break our NHS doctors with its lies, bullying & intimidation the Government now resorts to this. It simply won’t work because our NHS heroes have a courage & determination & a love & respect from the public which @SteveBarclay could never understand
Greenock, Scotland. Remember none of this is a major problem according to our politicians. We’ll all pretend it’s fine despite the fact it’s just the beginning - and governments plan to make it worse for another 30 years
