Am I a real economist? The Rory Stewart debate

[Victoria Derbyshire @vicderbyshire]

Conservative Mayor of Tees Valley Lord Houchen told #Newsnight in 2024 that 2 private developers had ‘£50m of their money sitting in a bank account’ when I quoted an independent report pointing out the pair (Chris Musgrove & Martin Corney) had put no direct cash of their own into regenerating the huge old Redcar steelworks site (now Teesworks)

@RBrooks45 reports in this week’s @PrivateEyeNews that almost all of that £50m has now been taken as dividends by Messrs Musgrave & Corney (there’s £2.7m left in the account)

Robert de Niro appears on JImmy Kimmel and mocks President Trump,

"Speech, it aint free no more"

"We're charging by the word"

"If you want to say something nice about President Trump and his beautiful thick yellow hair and how he can do his makeup better than any broad, that's free"

"But, if you want to make a joke that President Trump is so fat he needs two seats on the Epstein jet"

"That's going to cost you"

Resist hatred. Resist division. Tax wealth not work.

The @MakeThem_Pay rally earlier.

Literally this fool's job to 'be there'

[Liz Webster @LizWebsterSBF]

Moskowitz ate Farage alive 🍽️
👉 Q: ‘Do you think the Epstein list should come out?’
👉 Farage: ‘I have no opinion.’
👉 Raskin: ‘You did call for it to be released.’
👉 Moskowitz: ‘I have it here. Do you agree with yourself?’

Total humiliation in DC.

Farage flew to Washington to spin yarns about ‘broken Britain’ and free speech.

Instead, he got skewered on the Epstein scandal engulfing his bestie Trump and left looking like a fraud.

It took a visit to US Congress to remind us just how lily-livered our media is when it comes to holding Nigel Farage to account…

[Larry the Cat @Number10cat]

Congress did its homework on Nigel Farage:

[Narinder Kaur @narindertweets]

Hunt - didn’t resign.
Johnson - didn’t resign.
Mogg - didn’t resign.
Sunak - l didn’t resign.
Zahawi - didn’t resign.

And not a WORD across all MSM about how Farage had his arse handed to him on a plate yesterday.
This REEKS Of misogyny and classism and hypocrisy.

The right wing media are PETRIFIED of Angela Rayner becoming the next PM.

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

Let's make this video famous.

Let's make sure @Nigel_Farage is shown to everyone be the fraud he is.

Let's make sure @BBCNews @SkyNews @Channel4News @itvnews allkeep showing this on repeat!

Retweet! Retweet! Retweet!

‘We hope to keep people away by making the journey to get here so dangerous.’

Former LBC presenter @SangitaMyska on the price journalists pay for speaking out on Gaza.

[Marina Purkiss @MarinaPurkiss]

The billionaire press barons must be having a right laugh…

Here we are distracted & arguing over asylum seekers (0.2% of the population)

Meanwhile, billionaires (just 0.0002% of the population) hoard more wealth than half the UK

Immigration isn’t draining us

Inequality is.

[Richard @Richard06854232]

@juliasuzanne76 Brilliant 👏

[Marina Purkiss @MarinaPurkiss]

A message to anyone thinking Farage’s deportation plan is a good thing…

The government will tax the middle class out of existence. This is the path we're on.

If anyone wants to know how to end a story - just make it thought-provoking and beautiful.

@BorisJohnson As the incompetent fuckwit who sold the UK down the river in order to further his own career, you have no right to an opinion on this, so shut the fuck up you bloviating bag of bollocks.
