Tries to uphold the science in sport and exercise science. Retains his now 50-year love of fast cars.

Oh the irony, if Williamson's own degree at Bradford got the chop. But people like him don't care - their ideology trumps any sense of fairness and they very quickly pull the ladder up after them. The end justifies the means.

Good job nobody connected with the Tory party broke lockdown measures Andrew, and that you're not a Leicestershire MP, or that would make this a self-own.

[HENRY MORRIS @mrhenrymorris]

This. Which is why none of Jacob's hedge funds have moved to Ireland to remain in the EU.

[James O'Brien @mrjamesob]

Propelled to power by ignorant bellows of “You lost, get over it!” Boris Johnson is already reduced to sacking a colleague for winning an election.
The Emperor’s naked buttocks are now perilously close to the nation’s nose.

Number 10's claim that the removal of Whip was for disloyalty made me choke on my breakfast strawberry granola. How on earth did disloyalist to his wives, mistresses, children, employers, colleagues and electorate de Pfeffel sign up to that statement . . . ?

[Sky News @SkyNews]

"The consensus among many MPs was that Number 10 was guilty of a massive overreaction which has made what was only a moderately bad situation much, much worse."

I would have thought Mourinho's response would be: I expect the editor to accept all my papers, accept them as they are submitted, and publish them promptly. I also expect him to scrutinise all other papers with the utmost care, especially those of my competitors. Earl H Wood.

I was reminded of this classic yesterday - Horrible Histories from 2012. Hopefully it’ll raise a smile... #BattleOfBritain80 #BoB80

@GlynHowatson @goodall_stuart @KirstyHicks88 @PaulAnsdell THIS is brilliant!!!

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

This is a massive scandal, perhaps the biggest so far under this government.
The secret, under-the-counter contracts given to really weird companies to deliver PPE and other pandemic services.
It needs more exposure.
Please RT and circulate. Thanks.

I don't remember seeing this on the side of a bus 🤔

Thank you 17.4 million.

The tragic irony of UK blue passports being produced by a Franco-Dutch company and printed in Poland that cannot be guaranteed to be imported into the UK because a no deal Brexit means that no trade agreement will be in place to allow the blue passports to enter the UK.

[HENRY MORRIS @mrhenrymorris]

Does anyone know what's up with google? I'm just doing my regular 6am Churchill search and all its coming up with is this.

7 Billion is about half the cost of our EU Membership just to get lorries out of Dover. This is a tangible benefit that will be felt by all of us!

From a Brit friend, doing time in the USA:
"I did hear a good expression yesterday though, which was that now the Trump Administration was “Swamping the Drain”.

EU travel after Brexit transition ends on 31.12.20
It turns out the UK voted for:
Higher travel insurance and mobile roaming costs.
Tougher passport rules.
Pet travel rules so complex that BBC man says: "Pets of Great Britain, say farewell to the Dordogne”

I will never be anything other than proud that I voted remain and against the Tories, particularly against this Johnson govt.
Yes, I lost every time. But my conscience is clear. My votes are not responsible for any of this tsunami of shit.

[Edward Winter @WinterEdward]

"Passion". That's the problem. Clouds judgement.

Hypocrisy & Irony:

7:40 — "..he does what all good scientists do, when they are confronted by compelling evidence that flatly contradicts their beliefs no matter how long they've held the beliefs, they go with the evidence."

📢He does NOT do this when the topic is vaccines.

[Sam Lowe @SamuelMarcLowe]

At some point I hope that there will be some recognition that all of the people who said that leaving the EU would mean additional cost and bureaucracy for businesses were right and those who spent the past years peddling fantastical solutions that don’t exist were not.
