To anyone looking for a bingeable series to watch this Halloween— I highly recomend the 1st 2 seasons of #MoDaoZuShi (Tencent Video youtube channel or WeTV) or, if not wanting a full series but something new #TianGuanCiFu has released it’s first two episodes (bilibili website)

Would you start driving a train because you bought a passenger ticket? No, you would let the train driver do it because they are qualified, it’s their job and you are not entitled to it. You payed for your service. Respect it and enjoy your mini wine in peace x

Heaven help us

[Marina Purkiss @MarinaPurkiss]

Oh my word…

Kath called in to say she didn’t like what the Tories are doing

But she’ll vote for them anyway to “keep Labour out”

I had one question for her

It got spicy…

The mini-budget crisis last autumn was predictable, preventable & avoidable: the February 1847 budget also containing unfunded tax cuts and a borrowing spree for relief also caused a market panic & subsequent austerity measures to calm markets (as explained in my first book) /7

For anyone reading Liz Truss's mea culpa in The Sunday @Telegraph today, the idea Truss states that Kwarteng and the Treasury had not been warned of the budget's risks to financial stability was NOT TRUE. /1

@angelaeagle Just for reference vastly more Union members voted for their leaders and gave them a mandate than the number of Tory members who voted to inflict Sunak and Truss on the nation.

[Angela Eagle DBE @angelaeagle]

What mandate???? You were made PM by a tiny tiny tiny sliver of voters who happened to be members of the Tory Party - You had NO mandate

[Jess Phillips @jessphillips]

I haven't read this yet, but the thousands of us paying way more on our mortgages and rent think whatever establishment it was should have never let you serve at all. You were brought down by yourself and you took us all with you.

[Chris Bryant @RhonddaBryant]

He’s right

[Peter Stefanovic @PeterStefanovi2]

You just couldn’t make it up. Well actually he could..

i know for a fact that if sam smith was rail thin with a mullet the cries of "they're so Gender" would be endless, but nobody wants to have that conversation because you'll be forced to address your fatphobia and your idea of what a non binary person needs to look like.

Nadhim Zahawi was sacked by Sunak for multiple breaches of the Ministerial Code. Suella Braverman also committed multiple breaches of the code. She was reappointed by Sunak (to a much more senior job) within a couple of days. Why?

No one should be seeking to make a profit within a public healthcare system. It introduces a new consideration within the planning and/ or running of healthcare services.

A public healthcare system should have one central goal; the provision of excellent care to patients.

[Dr Dan Goyal @danielgoyal]

As the U.K. economy slides further, it’s worth remembering that a public sector pay rise would inject money into U.K. businesses.

[Philip Baldwin @philipcbaldwin]

Horrified by the ongoing discussion around trans prisoners. There are only 15 trans prisoners in Scottish prisons. Isla Bryson and Tiffany Scott are unusual cases. This is similar to #Section28 in the 1980s, where an entire minority was misrepresented as predatory. #Section35

My thoughts on the government’s new plan to the NHS crisis published today. A thread…

Sum: They seemed to listen to the experts but are clearly not interested in recovering the NHS…

[The New Statesman @NewStatesman]

More than 3,000 people protested on the moors this weekend over the loss of the last place it was possible to camp freely in England.

The fact that so many have never gone wild camping is precisely why this campaign matters, writes @india_bourke. https://t.co/G5rXn2LQ9A

[Mark Easton @MarkEastonMedia]

Whoops! That much-quoted ‘UK had the fastest growth in G7’ claim in 2021 turns out to be wrong. @ONS admits a ‘manual error’. Growth was second SLOWEST.

[Nicola Sturgeon @NicolaSturgeon]

I agree with Gordon Brown about the Tory threat to the NHS - though I also recall that when ⁦@theSNP⁩ raised this in #indyref he called it baseless scaremongering. Turns out we were right to be very concerned https://t.co/hCkChweFki
