I've rarely read legislation so lacking in underlying coherence and logic as today's bill from the government that would significantly restrict the right to strike - and I quote - in "health services, fire and rescue services, education services, transport...

[Secret Headteacher @secretHT1]

The strikes we are seeing are absolutely not about people being greedy and trying to be richer, but everything about people trying to stop themselves being poorer.

At what point does @10DowningStreet realise that the water industry is helping bring down the government?

Even @BritishVogue are currently reporting that someone "Swimming at St Leonards-on-Sea", "was hospitalised... after swallowing sewage". Game over!

That this is even happening has blown my mind but filling in the 'why do you think that' survey boxes has been rather cathartic

I didn't even know this Measurements consultation was taking place.
(No option for metric only!)
It must be one of the People’s Priorities. 🙄
Don’t let Mogg get away with a return to imperial measurements by default. Tell them no. It closes on the 26th. https://t.co/zy75ihH0mp

The misconception that there is no sound in space originates because most space is a ~vacuum, providing no way for sound waves to travel. A galaxy cluster has so much gas that we've picked up actual sound. Here it's amplified, and mixed with other data, to hear a black hole!

Enough is enough. It's time to turn anger into action.

Join the campaign to fight the cost-of-living crisis.

🚨 We've launched an inquiry and want to hear your views on the Government's proposed Bill of Rights Bill.

[Dr Andrew Meyerson @AndrewMeyerson]

🚨 Dear @Conservatives,

10 years ago the NHS was the greatest healthcare system in the world and look what you've done: We have no beds, no staff, no social care, no funding, tens of thousands are dying waiting for care, and you're doing NOTHING meaningful to fix it.

I spent yesterday writing about the technicalities of domicile as they might impact Rishi Sunak’s wife. But that’s because her tax decisions cast doubt on his suitability for office. Another thread, this time in the man himself ….

[Susie Dent @susie_dent]

Word of the day is 'snollygoster' (19th century): an unprincipled person in office who is motivated by personal rather than public gain.

Be absolutely clear. This isn’t about innovation or the arts or creative potential. A government of thin-skinned vandals is taking revenge on a critic by destroying it. https://t.co/IgtQKbNcxu
