Nominations close for the @CybilsAwards in the US today - but I was very happy to find out that #theskyoverrebecca has already been nominated in the public round!
Thank you once again to Charlotte (https://t.co/8DOMy5cgJZ). You've been very kind to me and my little book.
I am so looking forward to this. Emily's TIMES/Chickenhouse award-winning book THE WITCH-STONE GHOSTS is a twisting, turning joy. I can't wait to interview her about it at @MarlbLitFest in September.
Cost of a bank holiday if England win = £2.9bn.
Cost of scrapping 3rd+ child allowance limit=£2.5bn.
If England win we should do the latter. Lift 50,000 children out of poverty with every penalty in the shootout.
Do you know that the water isn't even for here? They are planning to sell it to Portsmouth via a new pipeline.
Profiteering Water company sleeze needs to end.
Mocky will liaise with the Secretary of state to call for a full public enquiry.

My reply to a LIb Dem post today:
I have not and never will advocate tactical voting; I strongly advise people to vote for the best person to represent TW in Parliament. That’s democracy. This constant refrain of “vote tactically to beat the Tories” is an insult. If the LDs win, will we really have the best person to be our MP or is it just another scalp won at any cost (and boy, the LD campaign must have cost!!) ?
Final day of campaigning & final clips from me. First Labour's Tunbridge Wells candidate Hugo Pound. Clip 1: @hugoforTWells tells us not to vote "tactically" but to choose best candidate for the job of being a local MP. He spells out his local credentials & Labour NHS plans #GE24
Here are Mocky's pledges to residents of Didcot & Wantage.
Vote Mocky Khan on 4th July for a committed, local representative working for Didcot & Wantage from within our future government.
They also ignore the massive 17.4% swing to Lib Dems in 2019 for STOP Brexit in the strongly remain old constituency of #Wantage.
The tactical site just said that was "unusual".
On that I agree, it was a one off. 2 years earlier Labour were in 2nd, with twice the votes of LDs
Tactical voting sites have no right to affect politics without all the facts.
In #Didcot and #Wantage they ignore the boundary change and base it off the old #Wantage constituency where net 15,000 rural voters are now in Witney seat.
@blahbla86323487 Also, be careful with those MRP polls as they are weighted to the smaller parties nationally, like the Lib Dems.
The Lib Dem canvassers are telling the Guardian this seat will be won by a margin of 500 votes. So dont be misled by tactical sites and regret it on Friday!
