@edgarwright The Great Plains by Eaves Wilder. It's wonderful

[Jeremy Nye @JeremyNye]

@ProfByron You're right, he answers well. But why were Jordan and his fans (and the people putting the captions on the clip) so upset about Helen putting her arguments forward in a reasonable and articulate way. Have you read the comments under the whole interview? Anger and defensiveness.

@christnye @MattChorley I feel the same way about the excellent Hugh Laurie

@EmmaSzewczak I know, it's embarrassing when your lack or honesty is exposed.
But how about taking it as helpful feedback and try harder next time

[Omid Djalili @omid9]

This morning the Islamic Republic announced the execution of three more protesters: #Mehdi_Rasouli #MohammadReza_Miri and #Ebrahim_Dolatabadi who were arrested during December protests in Mashhad and sentenced to death after sham trials.

If the international community does not respond to this grave injustice soon there’s a serious risk of hundreds of executions in the coming weeks as the regime expedites the killings of their own people as a deterrent to another (imminent) uprising.

@Bashful1010c5 @jk_rowling ahem.. that wasn't the demographic she was referring to. Give it another read perhaps

[Jeremy Nye @JeremyNye]

@rcbregman You could try thanking the BBC for airing your lectures instead of this persistent negativity. You keep projecting yourself as censored martyr? It's unnecessary. I enjoyed the lectures. Since we all know that Trump is the most openly corrupt President, why promote your weak line?

@MichaelLCrick When I was at Manchester University I missed the bus taking students to Old Trafford. Phil, who I didn't know, kindly gave me a lift all the way there (in time to see Bryan Robson signing on the pitch). What a gent.

[Jeremy Nye @JeremyNye]

@mtpennycook Fair enough (he sounded like he was chatting to a friend and not a journalist, so that's a crime in today's politics). But on his point about the collapse in house building, especially in London, and the safety trade-offs that followed Grenfell.. he's right isn't he?

[Jeremy Nye @JeremyNye]

@FraserNelson @JonathanBlay11 Fraser, can you point to someone you hired in the same way from a poorer household (who might have left a comprehensive school at 16), and who is succeeding as well as Mimi? (if you can't, that's fair enough, I was just wondering who you meant by 'another')

[Jeremy Nye @JeremyNye]

@ElaineCox11 So presumably you would welcome high density building, like in the lovely historic towns we enjoy visiting, rather than inefficient places full of semi-detached homes and an assumption of car driving?

[Jeremy Nye @JeremyNye]

@JohnJCrace More misogynistic rubbish from someone who is clearly working through some personal baggage and subjecting us to it

[Jeremy Nye @JeremyNye]

@JohnJCrace A very dull column, John. Though Guardian-reading fans of Iranian leaders will have been cheered up, so there is that...

[Jeremy Nye @JeremyNye]

YES!

[Paul Johnson @PJTheEconomist]

To most economists this is just obvious common sense. Good to see more evidence confirming it. The answer is just build more housing. Squeezing total supply in name of more “affordable housing” is just counterproductive.

[Jeremy Nye @JeremyNye]

So incredibly depressing. I honestly thought Labour had worked out what was going wrong and would fix it

[David Lawrence @dc_lawrence]

There is no path to growth in Britain without fixing this.

[Jeremy Nye @JeremyNye]

@HenMazzig Are you dim? She clearly states that this is what the Iranian government is saying. She's not endorsing it, FFS

[Jeremy Nye @JeremyNye]

Excellent question

[Oleksandra Matviichuk @avalaina]

I am a Ukrainian Nobel Peace Prize Laureate. I have a question. 

Why has Trump's year of negotiations been the deadliest for civilians in Ukraine since the full-scale invasion? The number of deaths and injuries has increased by 31 percent compared to the previous year.
Why did Putin not allow himself such brutal strikes on civilian infrastructure under Biden, whom Trump calls “weak,” but totally destroys peaceful cities and disregards the “strong Trump”?

@Fictionwitch @SCP_Hughes 'the system'. Have you seen the latest figures for house building in London?

[Jeremy Nye @JeremyNye]

I loved this conversation... so smart about a problem in the UK, and with loads of ideas to start fixing it
