. @RestIsPolitics@RoryStewartUK Yes - thought your take on NI was a tad naรฏve. Hereโs mineโฆ @J_Donaldson_MP has seen #GE coming, and realised DUP needs back into NI Assembly. Knows that compromise now is the cost of staying relevant at the polls.
@campbellclaret
@carldinnen#erg would only vote against gov if they wanted to bring about early #GE, putting an end to @RishiSunak leadership and his slow walk to election gallows.
@carldinnen#ERG are fundamentally spineless. After much much heat+light they will vote how they are told to vote (i.e. by GWO).
P.S. Date for #GeneralElection is currently May 2nd 2024 for those wondering how long we'll need to put up with this shower.

. @RishiSunak does a 180 on net zero. Major North Sea producer Taqa announces it intends to cease production from all of its UK North Sea platforms by end of 2027. Government vibes: completely out of touch. ๐๐ก๐

October: UK Gov borrows whopping ยฃ14.9bn, second-highest ever. November: Tories pitch tax breaks to stay in control, subjecting us to 5 more years of mismanagement.
Forget tax breaks and buying electorate! Invest in public services you've neglected for 13 years.

This heroine deserves discussion on @RestIsPolitics Her actions bear striking resemblance to Otto and Elise Hampel who left anti-fascist, anti-war notes around Berlin during WWII - Story told in โAlone in Berlinโ.
She speaks truth to power! @campbellclaret@RoryStewartUK
Dozens of journalists and people who came to support Aleksandra Skochilenko chanted: "Shame! Shame! Shame!" after Judge Oksana Demyasheva announced the ruling in President Vladimir Putin's hometown. https://t.co/4MZvK9bh0l
In light of this latest news I'd be really annoyed if I'd just committed to building a ยฃ4BN battery factory in ๐ฌ๐ง https://t.co/l81liKNM5P

@Olivers_Aunty The vehicle fatalities I witnessed involved a pedestrian on a pedestrian crossing and a toddler on the pavement. 20mph - can't happen soon enough.
Is anyone else wondering how @BBCSteveR, a BBC journalist and UK citizen is apparently able to freely conduct a vox pop in Moscow? What do we not know about our Steve?

I'm for what you suggest, however Corp tax is reserved.
Whilst low corp tax regime may be in Scotland's interest definitely not for England/rUK who would lower their rate to compete.
Changing reserved powers requires #ScottishIndependence#r4today
In case you're wondering why #r4today is all over drug death numbers this quarter but not every quarter it's because @ScotTories and @Douglas4Moray are currently promoting Right to Addiction Recovery Bill at Holyrood.

@SebPBerry@BBCr4today@BBCPolitics Because it is an emotive issue that's effective at moving national conversation away from incompetent government. Although ... #r4today are actually doing good job of reporting topic this AM by humanising story.
