@DaleVince Why does there even need to be a new tax on EVs? It's an immature technology so owning one isn't exactly a cheap hobby to begin with... but feels like the right thing to do. How about additional duty on flying instead?

@gamray Shit - I'm so sorry. This is some year

Tickets go on sale for the Bayeux Tapestry exhibition at @britishmuseum this morning. I was asked a few times when I was talking Tapestry @ChalkeFestival last weekend why people should go see it, so I've scribbled some thoughts here https://t.co/2fS3Bhn8w7

[Paul Parsons @NasaProPlus]

@DJMusgrove @britishmuseum @ChalkeFestival Will the British Museum give it back though?

Dear Prof. Cox,
If I have drunk, on average, 12 pints of bitter per week since 1980, what percentage of the observable universe’s total mass has passed through my penis?

@Thievesbook Happy anniversary!

@gamray That's really shit. Very sorry to hear. We lost one of ours in January and the other's just had a diagnosis of kidney disease - this year can properly do one.

@JohnSimpsonNews Lucky it's been a slow news week🙄
