@unojen_wood @BorisJohnson Still waiting for that £350m! Because look how well our NHS is doing!

@Peston Economy hardly stabilsed. Certainly not made fairer. Public services still struggling. Especially the NHS. Housing unaffordable.
Rents unaffordable. All a lot ad of ballcocks

@Peston Wow! That is aome massive wodge of jumped up, pompous, barely truthful arrogance! A truly unpleasant individual.

@EastAnglear Mr Leek, the plumber.

@Dr_Bekka_UK It looks like @TheCanaryUK might differ on that.....

Man of the people Andy Burnham would cut DWP benefits...

Welfare between 2010 to 2015 was cut £17 bn to £21 bn 2010 to 2015

@EastAnglear Well, they're all in the same basket! 😀

That sounded quite good until I remembered it's fruit bowls, not baskets.

Although I've seen adverts for gift baskets, of fruit, so there you go.

Don't mind me, it's how the old mind works. Or doesn't.

@StagecoachCNL Go on! You know you want to! 😄

@morningireland Broadband Man sounds more like a Salesman than an expert! Try someone else.
5G, and soon, 6G is fine!

@premnsikka If we can set in stone what is considered a "Minimum Wage"
If we can decide the Minimum amount required for an unemployed person to live on.
What's stopping us ruling on what can be a responsible "Maximum Wage"?

[Paddy @PaddyWV]

@bbctms We might have had a bit more play if they'd been in Headingly this week!

[Paddy @PaddyWV]

Constantly having to turn off another pointless advert is, to put it roughly - A pain in the arse!

Please Cease and desist with this inconvenience.

[Paddy @PaddyWV]

@Channel4 Your greedy insistence of inserting ads when you press pause is an insert too far! It could even be called discriminatory. If you're visually impaired and need to clarify something on screen, or maybe even reread a subtitle during fast paced or quiet conversation, 1/2

[Paddy @PaddyWV]

@XiaomiUK Thanks. Relatively academic to someone with thirty years of mobile phone ownership behind them. Though one is usually open to new ideas. Same again today, incidentally. I sense that I'll be replacing this photo by next year. It's no Mi10t lite. Disappointing.

[Paddy @PaddyWV]

@XiaomiUK Weird phenomenon with the phone in this warm weather. Assuming it is that and not yet another bout of my Poco X6's eccentric behaviour. How can it think it's charging when it's bot plugged in! 🤔

[Paddy @PaddyWV]

@EastAnglear Whilst a real voice would be laconic.
But wouldn't it be iconic
If it wasn't so Ironic!
As long as it didn't rely on phonics.
That would be a tonic.

@mmaher70 @Hephaestus7 In a discussion on Benefit Reform in Ireland this morning, the UK's changes with UC were cited as how not to do it. Whoops!

[Paddy @PaddyWV]

@TheMeldrew It was refreshing to hear in an interview on Irish RTE Radio 1 yesterday, someone talking about Welfare Reforms and how rhe way the British Government went about it was the perfect example of how not to do it

[Paddy @PaddyWV]

@unojen_wood I remember rhe timeline well.
First, in Opposition it was:
"We will scrap the unfair Welfare Reforms"
Then, in the run up to the election, it was: "We will Reform the Unfair Universal Credit."
Now it's full on destruction mode. Lies all the way

@LukeMLabour Maybe you should stop demonising people with mental health problems then, rather than calling them lazy scroungers, slashing their benefits and forcing them into jobs that may worsen their conditions.
