Can we once and for all dispense with this tedious "But he always took the bins out and said hello" commentary, as if there was a contradiction here that needed explaining.

Violent men ARE "nice guys".

They're nice to everyone but the women they abuse. That's the whole point.

So Manchester University took an applicants £1k, rejected their application because they can’t make living costs, and didn’t give the money back. This applicant, a friend, then dies by suicide because of his absolute hopelessness of his situation.

It’s absolutely scandalous.

EXCLUSIVE

A leaked Test and Trace document admits that data from check-ins at pubs, restaurants and hairdressers was barely used for contact tracing

Nor was data from hundreds of millions of check-ins with the contact tracing app

Matt Hancock: found guilty of handing pandemic contracts to his mates

British journalists:

[The Citizens @allthecitizens]

We’ve found 8 Tory donors that, collectively, have won £881m in 35 Covid19 UK gov contracts

Combined they've donated £8.2m to the Tories

So, for every £1 donated, they've averaged a return of £110 from contracts won

The golden line of cronyism

I, and I suspect many of my biology people, find this very triggering 😬 https://t.co/S6cO1GeZ7Y

Who is this serving?

Who is this protecting?

[Gav @afgavinstan]

Was asked why I don't want the Thursday night NHS clap to continue. Opened my notepad app and typed what came out.

I'm not looking for a debate. Don't @ me looking to justify yourself. This is just how I feel 🙏

My mum lived thru the Blitz. She’s boycotting VE Day to protest equating it with the pandemic. She says everyone was sick of Vera Lynn- it wasn’t a victory but a relief. People wanted peace n bread. They didn’t want to make do and mend. They wanted jobs.

This is not pleasant reading here in the UK, but should still be read by every UK journalist before another Government press call.

[Joe Wilkinson @gillinghamjoe]

Why has no one asked how the boy band Blue had the city on lock down by simply driving by in their low ride? Get these guys involved

[Miss McKinnon @MissMcKinnon01]

This is the exact mindset which is going to prolong lockdown.
Idiotic and selfish people.

So...the definition of prejudice then? Good one

[Quartz @qz]

Employers favor men not because they are prejudiced against women, but because they have the perception that men perform better on average at certain tasks. https://t.co/RRcBSRCQfA
