Left UK Civil Service after 25 yrs in March and UK in August; now living and loving rural and beach life in New Zealand. Political geek always...

@ZiaYusufUK Did you attach the wrong clip because I can't see what Reform would have done? Empty vessels springs to mind and what a din you make.

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@PressSec Before the election, everything was being published to prove how transparent Trump is; then it was all on Bondi's desk and a selection of so-called influencers were given folders; then nothing exists, nothing at all; now it exists again but its a hoax; now to be published....

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@Wimbledon @DjokerNole No words nor any illness or injury today. If Lazarus played tennis....

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@SenTedCruz Quick question Teddy...what's the population of Iran? You made Tucker Carlson look rounded and reasonable. Perhaps not best placed to be opining.

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@SpeakerJohnson Means what he says?? Didn't he say he wouldn't drag America into any more military situations in the Middle East? He could tell you the sky is green and you'd tell the world the sky is the most bigly beautiful emerald sky. History will judge you and the Trump acolytes badly.

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@KemiBadenoch When did you campaign exactly? When you were in Govt? When you were Minister for Womwn? When you were in Cabinet? No. You poltical chancery, only when there is gain in it for you. Shame on you.

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@KemiBadenoch @TheSun That you are trying to make political gain from this having done nothing, having said nothing, is nothing short of disgusting. You had every chance to take action and did nothing. Shame on you.

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@CPhilpOfficial Will you be setting the example by apologising for the previous Govt's failure to implement any of the recommendations? The stink of hypocrisy clings to you.

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@CharlesAPugsley Amazing! Oh wait...does that performative politics fix pot holes? Keep libraries open? Maintains public swimming facilities? Keep rubbish being collected. No. And at some point you gazing lovingly at flag poles won't matter when services don't improve.

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@darrengrimes What evidence do you have that asylum seekers are being prioritized? You've only given half a story here and you should be held to account now you're in a public office so how many people have been directly denied housing as a result?

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@FBIDDBongino Remind me, how many were pardoned after Jan 6th? I'm just trying to understand when it is and is not ok to riot....

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@danwootton How does that work Danny? Isn't a restaurant equally free to decide who it does and does not want in its establishment? You champion freedom but then want to deny a private business it's freedom? Square that circle for me...

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@darrengrimes Perhaps you'd be kind enough to set out how Reform would do it? How about you share your policy, costings, timings etc. Something that is legal to. You're in office now so no chipping in from the sidelines. Let's have some detail Dazza. Or is Reform just a populist vacuum....

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@MartinDaubney @GBNEWS I'd be even more astonished if you ever checked a source or tested the evidence. "Journalist for 30 years"? Not anymore clearly. Let me help - there is no substantiated evidence of a white genocide. Pathetic standard of 'journalism'

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@Sportsfan4233 @patbrittenden It's not a false equivalence. As a UK national, I'm used to signs in Welsh, Irish and Scots Gaelic. Never a problem. Would you suggest nobody should use the other official language on the basis only 1% of NZers use NZSL? Maybe people should learn the languages of their country...

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@AllBlacks $140 or $180 for a seat at Hamilton. Pretty steep ticket pricing for the average fan.

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@MahyarTousi Yes, excellent dogwhistling to distract from the reality that they haven't any experience, any knowledge of what local powers are and zero local policies. As distractions go, this is a good move. Hide the reality and all that.

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@ZiaYusufUK Heard one of your new councillors making a fool of himself on Stephen Nolan. Couldn't answer a simple question - describe what the DEI officers do in a day? No idea. Left floundering. So cover up the lack of anything substantial with a Trump playbook move of something to distract

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@SecScottBessent Do you even believe your incoherent nonsense? America First is all about bullying and belittling and apparently then being surprised when you're isolated. You sow, you reap.

[Jane Allen @JLA2108]

@PressSec What happened to your guy settling this in 24 hours? History will not judge him, you, or any of his other lackeys and sycophants kindly. Nor do him, you or them deserve to be. Incoherent nonsense.
