@sophielouisecc It’s not failing, it’s being failed by successive governments. Subtle difference.

@BrexitBin @PeterStefanovi2 @LabourLordsUK @UKLabour This is so true! They decided not to vote for a second referendum because it ‘wasn’t the right time’. Apparently there was never a right time. They kick the can down the road until they don’t have to make a decision.

@Tommothebiglad Are you aware that Farmwatch, where this was posted, have now taken down the post as it was proven to be untrue? They actually returned the lamb to its mother. Racism is not acceptable and neither are your ignorant assumptions.

@SportsDirectUK Thanks but I think these things are best talked about in an open forum. This store in Bideford is literally within a mile of an excellent racquet centre. Why are there no racquets using women as advertising? Is it a supply issue or a sales choice? Are they available?

Come on @SportsDirectUK @head_tennis @Slazengerhc @babolat ! Don’t girls and women play tennis? No wonder there’s so few girls taking up tennis when you only market products to boys. @Womeninsport_uk @WomenSportTrust #womeninsport

@caroc54 It’s gross isn’t it. Yet again women in sort reduced to ornaments. Will we get blokes in crop tops and tiny shorts for the women’s matches? I don’t think so.

@CatharineHoey He tweeted from his own account so eff all to do with the BBC. Odd too when the Tory chair is paid by the license fee.

Wanting tomatoes and getting turnips pretty much sums up Brexit…

[Alex Taylor @AlexTaylorNews]

So here it is ! The much-awaited "yes, we have no tomatoes" 🧵You knew it was coming !

Years of journalistic experience fired me up on a perilous mission to see if, as is being claimed in UK media, the tomato shortage is "a Europe-wide thing and nothing to do with Brexit" 1/6

@sophielouisecc I think it’s incredibly patronising to start from the principle that those in need of help are incapable of putting their kids first.

@nadhimzahawi Great to see what our taxes pay for. More than your taxes presumably!

[Piers C. Structures (@pcstru.bsky.social) @pcstru]

Imagine Dianne Abbot had forgotten to pay £3,000,000 in tax. I wonder if @BBCNews & the @NickFerrariLBC 's of the world would be utterly silent on it. Whaddya think twitter?

A moment that changed me: I began wearing skirts with pockets big enough to hold a wine bottle. Fabulous! ⁦@gfrancie⁩ made me think of you! Books and skirts with pockets! https://t.co/fawaP9fGXu

Giving nurses the pay increase they're calling for would cost around £1.8 billion per year.

Scrapping the non-dom tax avoidance scheme used by the super-rich would raise much more - around £3.2 billion per year.

The Tory refusal to pay nurses properly is a political choice.
