And I get the urge for going when the meadow grass is turning brown
And summertime is falling down”

Happy first day of Winter ❄️

For non-lawyers, any barrister who is not a KC is referred to as a junior. There are junior counsel who have been in practise for 40 years. Atkins knows this as she was a junior barrister. She was being deliberately insulting.

Anyone know why Israel is included in Eurovision or football’s ‘Euros’? Apart from not being in Europe, it should be barred from competing as Russia was after invading Ukraine.

Whitechapel C1950 - the interior of the Princelet Street Synagogue. Originally built in 1719, and adapted as a Synagogue in 1870, it is believed to be the oldest building in Princelet Street (formerly Princes St) and is part of the East End’s Jewish culture... #eastend #Jews

Tonight is the winter solstice for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere. There were fewer than eight hours of daylight in London today, but the comeback starts now: Spring is coming...

This is St Pancras Station at the turn of the 19 /20th Century - the vast Cathedral like roof arches over the platforms whilst the grand Booking Hall looks more like the entrance to a stately home... https://t.co/ze3tlgzseW #History

Victoria Atkins is one of many Tory MPs, or as I like to call them, unemployed people in training.

If you saw me at festivals on either July 21 or 22 this year, I’d like it on the record neither of them has paid their acts yet. It’s QUITE a while ago, isn’t it.

Jeremy Hunt "I don’t think people at home are remotely interested in personal tax affairs."

Hunt is commenting about his own and Rishi Sunak's tax dodging.

I call him a Lying ****

If you are interested RT.

Interestingly Victoria Atkins received no training at all to be Health Minister, it isn’t surprising though because we heard her tell us she doesn’t know what a Junior Doctor is.

Why is someone completely untrained being paid 4x as much as a highly trained Junior Doctor?

Got on the train home at Waterloo. It was heaving, as expected. Man had his bag on the seat, so I asked if I could sit down. Told me to ‘fuck off’, so I did the opposite of what I would normally do. I sat on his bag. He moved it. Having a lovely journey 😆

[Claire 💙 @clairebubblepop]

Victoria Atkins now calling Junior Drs “Doctors in training”. Ok maybe we should start calling Tories “MPs in training” coz they clearly have no clue.
