Used to report on motor racing now cheers over cricket - mainly. Yeah. Motorbikes. Did I mention Vulcans?

@observationson2 @AlexHardwick95 The only logical pronoun for a single non-binary person is 'it' with 'them' for a couple... until a better one is created. Or just call them by name.

[Beiciwr Cath @LynPatey]

@observationson2 @AlexHardwick95 Seriously? If someone says "The electrician is coming tomorrow" I would say "What time will he arrive?" For two reasons a) because I understand the English language and b) because female electricians are still quite rare, so I make the assumption that it will be male.

[Beiciwr Cath @LynPatey]

Surely the pronoun for a single non-binary is 'it' with 'them' reserved for more than one? Just like real language usage?

@OliLondonTV Wow....what a silly tweet. How does it feel to have a brain like a doughnut?

[Beiciwr Cath @LynPatey]

@Matt_building @MichaelTakeMP Genius...🤣🤣🤣

[Beiciwr Cath @LynPatey]

@FreddySky @MichaelTakeMP 🤣🤣🤣

[Beiciwr Cath @LynPatey]

@BelindaWoodrow @MichaelTakeMP Its 'were' and it's a parody account. Michael Take...Micky Take. Geddit? 🤣🤣🤣

[Beiciwr Cath @LynPatey]

@twychy12 @dave43law @HackneyAbbott But what's the alternative?

[Beiciwr Cath @LynPatey]

@observationson2 @AlexHardwick95 I will not refer to any single person as 'they'. It is ridiculous and open to misunderstanding. I will refer to that person by name until a NEW pronoun is found. And that is not because I have an issue with non-binary people. It's an issue with language.

@RussInCheshire Russ, can you remind me how I can contribute?

[Beiciwr Cath @LynPatey]

@Maximus2wheels @AfMediation @BBCNewsnight @faisalislam @BBCNews BTW its only two supermarkets that are rationing certain products over here.

[Beiciwr Cath @LynPatey]

@Maximus2wheels @AfMediation @BBCNewsnight @faisalislam @BBCNews Spain is having real climate issues and it's causing problems for other EU countries that don't grow their own. We have very good tomato and other veg growers in this country but they are under glass and the govt has stopped subsidies that would help them increase production.

[Beiciwr Cath @LynPatey]

@polecattimes @BladeoftheS You do realise that climate affects what fruit and veg can be grown in bulk in this country? Also not enough people in this country ready to do the picking?

[Beiciwr Cath @LynPatey]

@bellaswoosh @AfMediation @SaleemulHuq @BBCNewsnight @faisalislam @BBCNews It's not just problems in Spain. There are a lot of countries experiencing problems with floods and droughts. It has been reported elsewhere and has nothing to do with our economic issues.
