@GuyOpperman I know we were on opposite sides of the argument in 2015 but some things transcend politics. My thoughts are with you and your family at this time. So sorry for your loss.
@tmalbrghtn @vote_penny @LabourHexhamCLP I've taken a step back from frontline politics but couldn't keep quiet about this. People aren't aren't going hungry b/c they're can't work a spreadsheet! They're going hungry b/c they're short of hours at work or benefit delays or they've lost their job. 😡
Sitting MP for Hexham has had an empathy bypass: He was in Prudhoe last night saying that families using foodbanks should handle money better. There's a real alternative to the Tories here; local candidate Penny Grennan @vote_penny #voteLabourDec12#LabourParty@LabourHexhamCLP
Boris Johnson knows he has no authority in Parliament his solution is to suspend parliamentary democracy for the first time since 1948 is a chilling insight into his dictator-like personality #dictatorship#Parliament#Proroguing#Boris
@mal255@anna_harding I still ride everyday, after a long recovery. It won't be safe until drivers change their outlook a little. Instead of thinking 'f**king cyclist' they could shift to 'There's a Dad just trying to get home to see his kids, I will give him some space and time' #cycling#RoadSafety
@gonortheast Will follow you, if you follow back I can then DM. Just an older man telling two young women that they're wrong. When they are right #everydaysexism
@gonortheast A bit of driver training needed. My daughters are first on the school bus every morning on your 'bespoke' st Bede's service. Driver telling them he shouldn't be stopping for them. Just bullying really.
In less than 2 minutes Jeremy Corbyn sounds more prime ministerial than the PM has in weeks. What he he describes in this clip is now the only way forward. #Brexit#brexitchaos
Catching up on what's been happening in Parliament, help me out Twitter: What's true out of this lot?
1. Did a Tory whip vote against his own 3 line whip?
2. Did Theresa May vote down a motion she put forward?
3. Is Jeremy Corbyn now the man with a plan?
#BrexitShambles#brexit
Worst off towns are losing EU funding that goes to poorest areas in Europe #BrexitBribe is less than that. It's a purely political move to make Labour MPs look bad if they refuse to accept. #brexitshambles

Catching up on the #BrexitShambles Geoffrey Cox was a disgrace to the office he holds and his pompous bluster contributed to government losing the argument yesterday. Tories imploding should be a laugh but the consequences are so serious it's not even funny #Maymustgo#Contempt
Dominic Rabb is the Brexit Secretary. He has resigned in protest at the deal. He must have looked at it and thought "who the %^* wrote this...?" #BrexitResignations#BrexitDeal#BrexitChaos#bbcqt
