@seltzercole May the gods of commerce smile upon it!

@Baddiel Thanks for the recommendation. This won me over 2 minutes in.

@IanDunt Thank you Ian. I hadn’t come across Labour’s new deal for working people. I don’t normally expect to feel inspired by contemporary politics but this actually raised my heart rate over my morning coffee.

@RestIsPolitics @campbellclaret @RoryStewartUK A question about evidence as the antidote to post-truth and populism: when you research a subject, do you have a way of selecting or accumulating primary sources - or do you just start a fresh Google search every time like I do? How do you organise your research?

[Paul Lewis @PaulLewis17]

@IanDunt A good read. Thanks. Smoking for me confirmed my teenage intellectual pretensions. My best friend betrayed his inferior aspirations by smoking Dunhill.

[Paul Lewis @PaulLewis17]

Seriously? The BBC thinks the most important thing happening in the world today is that an ITV presenter is going to stop presenting a show because he’s not been getting on with his co-presenter? The licence fee is safe in this lot’s hands.

@RestIsPolitics
What feedback would you give Kier S on Sunday’s interview. I wanted much clearer language , & anger, or at least bite. He said budget was "wrongheaded' and economy “hasn’t really grown much”. C’mon Kier!

Just been offered compensation of precisely £0 by @LeShuttle after 16 Hour delay in a traffic jam. We do get a voucher for next trip on @LeShuttle which will take place NEVER. How can they get away with it?

@RestIsPolitics @campbellclaret @RoryStewartUK Rory and Alastair, thanks for the excellent pod. My question for you both is:
How can we understand the honest motivation of the few tens of thousands of Tory members who support Truss? In Rest is Politics bingo terms, what exactly is a “golf club bore“?

[Paul Lewis @PaulLewis17]

Stuck in the traffic near Dover for three hours so far (moved about 10m). Tempted to go car to car asking each driver whether they voted for Brexit.

[Tim Walker @ThatTimWalker]

Truss admitting Dover ‘an awful but entirely avoidable situation.’ She’s right. If the country hadn’t voted for Brexit — as she’d strongly advised them against during the referendum campaign — we would have avoided this.

[Paul Lewis @PaulLewis17]

They managed to find a pro-Boris vox pop, sort of, but the reaction of the husband is priceless!

American Psychological Association podcast list. Are they in decline themselves?

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

Perfect. On the same day the bulk of free Covid tests in England are withdrawn, we learn infections have reached their highest *ever* level, with nearly 5 million people in the UK infected.

The sheer reckless stupidity of this government is breathtaking. https://t.co/4i8kCJwLiR

@RoryStewartUK Hi Rory, pls discuss on therestispols how you did that research on our oil/gas dependency. How do you/AC get your facts in general? Just Google like me, or contacts/some inside track?

[Paul Lewis @PaulLewis17]

@LCWF_TBK Exactly. 150/200 deaths a day is not ‘over’. Unfortunately our government has enough influence to shift the focus away.
