@pritipatel Tell us what great things have been achieved in the ten years since you voted to take away my freedom of movement, not hint vaguely about things you could have done when in power but didn't.

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@coyleneil @BOSLabour Tell me Labour's plan for regaining my freedom of movement. Otherwise, I'm going to vote for a party that at least has that aspiration.

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@WCDG6 @se1 I'm a bit confused; my calendar hasn't got a Wednesday 6th March this year.

@dieworkwear @FrankTracy @jmthrivept These Vietnamese puns are getting on my tets.

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@coyleneil The 2010-2025 Tory government added more to the national debt than all Labour governments in history. They cannot credibly claim to be "fiscally responsible".

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@zoekennedy I'm sure there's a word for that. It used to be quite popular in the USA.

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@coyleneil It won't be fixed until we get our freedom of movement back.

What are Labour's plans for that?

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@AvantiWestCoast My train out on Monday morning was cancelled. My train home this afternoon has been cancelled.
This isn't a service; it's a shambles.

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@AvantiWestCoast Having used your trains regularly for more than two years, I'm very familiar with the Delay Repay scheme. It's better than nothing, but it doesn't make up for the aggravation caused to me and the board of the public benefit society I was supposed to be meeting with this evening.

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@AvantiWestCoast The latest timetable changes between BHM and EUS have reduced your service from two an hour to one late afternoon, and added extra stops in Rugby, MK, and Watford.
What's the rationale for this significantly worse service?

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@AvantiWestCoast Thank you.
Of course, the remaining train is rammed. The seat reservations aren't displayed, so boarding was chaos. We're leaving BHM half an hour late and I'll neither get dinner nor to my meeting in London this evening.

@zoekennedy @flying_rodent I'm in the quiet carriage on a train. A middle-aged bloke was playing videos on his phone without headphones and now some people have decided that it's a good place to bring a baby and a toddler.

What's wrong with people?

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@jwt99412 @MartinSLewis You do know that your estate doesn't pay IHT until after you've died, don't you?
In what sense does that "screw" you?

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@BaddeleyStuart @MartinSLewis Most people are in their 50s when their parents die. Something's gone wrong if they're dependent at that age. The average number of dependents of a couple with £1m is close to zero.

@RoyalDelhiite When will the people have their say over who their head of state is; these parasites are too scared to face an election.

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@KNEECAPCEOL And what a brilliant joke it was!

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@coyleneil This is good. Can we have something on leasehold reform/abolition, too?

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@RoyalFamily And none of them have any democratic legitimacy to represent the people of their country.

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@galer_bill I suggest you remember what happened in 1649 when Charles I tried that with an elected government.

[Phil Marson @PhilipMarson]

@FarmersWeekly On average, those children will be fifty-something before they inherit from their parents.
What's so wrong with them that they'll need a tax-free bung in middle age?
