@RevRichardColes It's not just that they are everywhere. There was one outside my son's school and outside the fire station. At least the tobacco advertising has pictures of all the diseases that can catch. I think smokers now choose their brand on whether they would prefer cancer or impotence.

@JaneyGodley Hello #janeygodley.

@FullFact I take it as given that anything said about Diane Abbott without attribution is almost certainly false and says far more about the poster than her. It saves an awful lot of time.

@TheLastLeg @LennyHenry @MaisieAdam @Channel4 Lenny Henry was an absolute star. His story about visiting his brother in hospital was just the right thing to lift the mood.

@terrychristian I mean 30p Lee is one of those bar-room bigots that you dread getting collared by. It doesn't matter what your politics are, you just want them to bore off somewhere else. Probably best to get them all in one place.

@astro_jaz Probably The Martian. They are all great films but that is probably the least unique of them all.

@necowilliams01 Congratulations! It's great to see your career progressing.

@Matthew_Wright @LBC If peaceful protest is made illegal, then there is no real incentive for those so inclined to refrain from violent protest.

[Rod Maxwell @RodericMaxwell]

@jdpoc Where are the police on this? That is a clear incitement to violence on health workers.

@restisents @richardosman @MarinaHyde @richardosman if all the comedians choose the luggage on House Of Games, is it carnage at Edinburgh Airport baggage claim during the Edinburgh Fringe Festival?

@scouseweegian Are they even Crocs? Crocs are meant to be comfortable and can be left overnight in a bucket of medical disinfectant and be good to go in the morning.

I've just had word from my sister that my nephew has been found safe and well. I'll delete the original post for privacy's safe. Thanks you to everyone who reposted this.

@Matthew_Wright Isn't a no-go area actually what a gated community is?

@PaulOnBooks He's a classic bar bigot. You can imagine him mouthing off in the pub, "I'll tell you the problem with this country...". It's no wonder that most Muslims are teetotal!

@YesterdaysBrit1 Back when flying was for the rich and famous (or servicemen!). It's often cheaper than the trains these days.

[Rod Maxwell @RodericMaxwell]

@YesterdaysBrit1 Is there an option for already emigrated because of the Tories?

@gavmacn Have some real fun. Put out a random bin and then see how many neighbours follow suit. When enough have the same bin out, swap it for another one.

@MrsAstronaut The real word is "Verstopfung" which is nearly as funny.

@IPhillips79 Robert Plant in 2014 at the O2 Academy Glasgow. Essentially, it is a grotty old bingo hall in the Gorbals district, and his set, the performance, and even the support bands were perfect.

@campbellclaret @nippa1212 You would think that they would Google to see if the firm actually exists first. Then again, after the PPE contracts, maybe not.
