Anything to do with voice basically. And accent. And phonetics. And cake. And Radio 4...

Huge elephant in the room is #Brexit. Hunt didn't once mention how it's contributed to 4% productivity drop, 15% trade drop, 6% food price increase, lower wages, workforce shortages & highest inflation in G7. Why won't Govt call it out? #AutumnStatement

@DeborahMeaden No threshold. 1 day.

Is Johnson getting it, on top of his 80k mp pay, for being on holiday?

We are paying about 700k a year for old PM’s, 5 of which are torys and detest benefit handouts.

How many of you know what Cruella Braverman's Public Order Bill contains?
It's frankly unbelievable: legislation you might expect in Russia, Iran or Egypt. Here's a summary from my column today:

[Tim Birkett @TimBirkett4]

Dear Liz Truss, if someone you love ever has the misfortune to get old and frail and have a fall, pray that it doesn’t happen after 12 years of Tory mismanagement. They may be on the floor some time. 4 hours and waiting…

[Tim Birkett @TimBirkett4]

@wesstreeting 2 hours and still waiting for an ambulance for my 88 year old mum. She’s had a fall and is in a lot of pain. This is brutal.

[Tim Birkett @TimBirkett4]

It seems we now live in a country where you can get an emergency avocado delivered more quickly than an ambulance. Progress?

[Tim Birkett @TimBirkett4]

My 88 year old mum had a fall 3 hours ago. Still waiting for an ambulance - or maybe for those tax cuts to magically stimulate the economy and bring us a properly funded NHS?

[Tim Birkett @TimBirkett4]

@alsilbs So many of the people I know who HAVE kids - or grandchildren - seem entirely oblivious of issues around climate change. We’re biologically programmed love our offspring. It’s much harder to behave in a way that protects and nurtures future generations.

[Tim Birkett @TimBirkett4]

@mrjamesob I’m genuinely worried about what will happen to this country if this appalling person becomes PM. A woman of zero imagination or compassion.

[James O'Brien @mrjamesob]

Perfectly normal morning in a perfectly normal country governed by perfectly normal people…

[James O'Brien @mrjamesob]

Sewage being pumped into our seas by businesses making enormous profits while Tories call for *less* regulation of business sums up the state of the nation.

@blunted_james Doubtelss she imagines she’s worth it. She really isn’t…

[Guy Fawkes @blunted_james]

Liz Truss had an Amazon Prime subscription in her expenses. You paid for it.
She hosted a small work lunch in January and spent 3k. You paid for it.
She chose a private jet to go to Australia costing half a million. You paid for it.

She doesn’t believe in ‘handouts’.

@JonHick3 @PeterStefanovi2 We need to get rid of the Tories. We cannot have another PM chosen by the minuscule gene pool of Tory party members. As a demographic, they are seriously out of touch with the lives of most of the population.

[Jon Hick @JonHick3]

Shocking ! These people really must be stopped !
