Good at admin. Bad at playing bass guitar. Terrible sense of humour.

@ukhomeoffice It’s amazing that the wonders of modern medical science is able to save so many more lives which would previously have been lost. I think perhaps this is the reason behind the ‘stat’ you have shared.

@babybeginner Come the colder weather, once he can snuggle on a blanket on your lap, he will know EXACTLY what to do! 😻

If you can, share these images of the beautiful soul stolen from us by the worst of humanity.

Let his face today burn bright.
Barney, I promise you there will be accountability 💛💚

For You. For Grace. For Ian.

@babybeginner Love this 😻 Did he climb onto your lap, or was he encouraged? He looks very comfy 😊

@leicesterliz What content will be designated as illegal? Will deciding what is illegal depend upon each individual crisis? Who will decide what is illegal?

David Lammy’s proposals to restrict the right to jury trial have been examined by the Justice Committee of the House of Commons.

And. Well. Um.

It’s *quite* the report.

I think it’s actually worse than politely scathing.

It’s embarrassing 👇🏼🪡🧵

@LeeJenson1 @AndrewGold_ok Yeah. Does it become a game of whose ‘lived experience’ has more validity than another’s? Or is it simply a selfish attitude of ‘my experience is more important’?

[Katrina @MomentOfForever]

@LeeJenson1 @AndrewGold_ok You’re not alone. I struggled to follow it as well. And while her anecdotes might have been interesting, they seemed to be more of a random way to add stories about her well traveled life than relating to the topics discussed. I thought it was just me who didn’t get it!

[Katrina @MomentOfForever]

@ZackPolanski Couple of questions. How do we know they are ‘far right’? Would a single incident used to fuel a ‘far left’ narrative be justified?

[Katrina @MomentOfForever]

@Heccles94 Not sure there’s enough prison spaces to fit all the politicians who have led us to this point, but let’s give it a go.

I wonder who will be left ‘running the country’. And will we notice any difference?

[Katrina @MomentOfForever]

@zarahussain999 This is indeed appalling behaviour. How do you know it’s the ‘far right’ though?

[Katrina @MomentOfForever]

@EdwardJDavey Who is stopping the police from conducting an investigation? 🤔

[Katrina @MomentOfForever]

@donmcgowan Alternatively, perhaps people are getting angry at the people responsible for the horrific events?

[Kathryn Porter @KathrynPorter26]

Is anyone else sick of ministers not answering questions in Parliament? By allowing them to make irrelevant statements in response to questions, the Speaker risks making Parliament itself redundant - if ministers are not required to answer questions asked in the House then one of the main functions of Parliament is lost

So today I have written to @CommonsSpeaker to express my concerns, referencing Energy questions last week

@ClaireCoutinho asked @Ed_Miliband who is responsible if there is a blackout in the UK and what would happen to them if there was one

He accused her of scaremongering, expressed sorrow that she no longer supports net zero and made some totally unconnected comment about green jobs

What he did not do is answer any part of her question and the Speaker said nothing. No requirement to answer the question. No reprimand for talking irrelevant waffle. Nothing

Week in and week out we see the same at PMQs - @KemiBadenoch asks a question and @Keir_Starmer lurches through some pre-prepared answer often on another topic, or complaining about the record of the previous government or Liz Truss or whatever his pet peeve of the day is

So what's the point? If ministers and the PM are allowed to simply say any old rubbish when asked a question and not even pretend to answer it, why bother with the whole charade? Why bother with Parliament? Why not just have a few committees drafting legislation and taking evidence from third parties?

By allowing this, the Speaker's Office is reducing the House of Commons into meaningless spectacle. It's simple theatre without substance and without purpose

If Sir Lindsay Hoyle wants to play a supporting role on the stage, London's West End has plenty of opportunities for this. The Palace of Westminster is not one of them

@HouseofCommons

@NiallHarbison Rocky loves you so much ❤️

@ArgosHelpers I have never received such rude ‘customer service’ than I had just now at your Reading Forbury store. Sullen, rude and speaking over me, shaking his head as he walked away from me, your store manager was awful.

[Katrina @MomentOfForever]

@Telegraph @SteveBakerFRSA None of the above

[Katrina @MomentOfForever]

@AndrewGold_ok @TRobinsonNewEra I struggled to follow her train of thought. Rather than answering questions, she seemed to interrupt all the time so that she could launch into favourite stories that never seemed to go anywhere. Maybe I need to listen again, but I just didn’t get it.

[Katrina @MomentOfForever]

@afneil I’m wondering whether because he knows his days are numbered, he is going to go all out on doing as much damage as possible before his time is up. Not sure what else makes any sense?

[Katrina @MomentOfForever]

@babybeginner Have you thought about putting a fleecy blanket on your lap when you sit down? My cats have always loved snuggling on that extra layer and it might manage to entice him onto you. It would also provide a little bit of protection for you in case he gets spooked.
