Labour, Tories, Lib Dems and Greens: I demand you stand down in Clacton. I will be a unity candidate and pledge to build at least one affordable house.

Nigel Farage says he wants The People versus the Establishment. So be it.

Leave him to me.

1) It’s *literally* your job to regulate this platform.

2) If you can’t, what does that mean? Tell us.

3) The Dept of Culture is not ‘your’ department, it’s ours. You’re its temporary custodian

5) But Facebook is ok? Really?

No one should be celebrating what seems certain to be the imminent departure of #Starmer & arrival of our 7th PM in 10 years
Something has gone horribly wrong in British politics. Stability & competence were key parts of what made us a great country.
Poorer quality politicians, the cheapening of political debate (in part social media but also MSM) & rise of so called populism led to #Brexit & the decision to leave #EU just exacerbated the demise of competent Govt, sensible politics & decent politicians.

Great airline at juxtaposing prices to get in to World Cup games versus actually flying to country.

An overlooked story of the day - all three devolved governments led by a party that wants to leave the UK.

@PitchPublishing Favourite World Cup moment… Has to be @cjhill2002’s post-match tweet following #CROENG at #FIFAWorldCup2018, VAR contentious then, even more so then!

A really odd thing has happened to British conservatism. It has surrendered its national sovereignty and become part of the MAGA cult.

If you've not been a fan of the shorter days, here is some good news - today marks the earliest sunset of the year for most of us!

So the sun will be setting a little later each day from now on 🌞

A special message from The King, in support of Stand Up To Cancer. 🧡
