“I wanted to even things out a bit, so that those who didn’t come from privileged backgrounds could help each other get on in life. And I didn’t see why people from working-class families should feel ashamed of their upbringing.” - The 93% Club https://t.co/Lpsbu764jX

THB all people who create data on digital platforms should be paid a #datadividend

[Mat Corbett @antevista]

Shouldn’t people get paid for the data they create on big tech platforms like Facebook and Google?

@Guanajuatouk @anneliese_midge Precisely. Sell the non-organic processed mint cake as a export - use the big profits to ensure Universal Basic Mint Cake for us.

[World Debate Club @WorldDebateClub]

@anneliese_midge what is your position on Universal Basic Mint Cake?

THB Kendal Mint Cake should be available for all in the appropriate section of all leading supermarkets and independent shops nationwide.

@NKMurray1 @wewalkthelineuk @TripeUK @anneliese_midge You speak some sense Big Dentistry is a curse of our time but surely something as pure and natural as #KMC cannot be in cahoots with such a global conspiracy?

[World Debate Club @WorldDebateClub]

@NKMurray1 @wewalkthelineuk @TripeUK @anneliese_midge Is that a typo? I’m reading mustard cords but my brain is seeing musty cords? Pretty sure St Farage is a purveyor of must.

nb #KMC should only be sold by slabs of at least 16 avoirdupois ounces (for the under fives, adults of course can eat at least twice that in one sitting)

@NKMurray1 @wewalkthelineuk @TripeUK @anneliese_midge Good old ‘Thatch’ always there to coach the next generation. Not just in bowling I understand. Is it also true that it was Heard who then introduced Depp to the unearthly delights of raw ‘hipster grade’ #KMC ? A sorry tale if ever there was one.

[World Debate Club @WorldDebateClub]

@NKMurray1 @wewalkthelineuk @TripeUK @anneliese_midge Still an amazing heart wrenching scene I thought. Shame the BAFTA nominations didn’t flow. I guess the anti #KMC lobby blocked it. Dark forces in the world.

@NKMurray1 @wewalkthelineuk @TripeUK @anneliese_midge Bunty Bunters you say? Good chap, wouldn’t hear a bad word said against him. First rate bowler. Recently watched his Netflix biopic (lockdown treat), excellent acting by Amber Heard as Bunty in the deathbed scene where in his dying death he announced his true love for #KMC

[World Debate Club @WorldDebateClub]

@NKMurray1 @TripeUK @anneliese_midge KMC is our saviour, you must try to let it into your heart (and arteries)

[World Debate Club @WorldDebateClub]

@MrMalky @TripeUK @anneliese_midge Well there is that... but Universal Basic Mint Cake is bigger than all of us. 👏

[World Debate Club @WorldDebateClub]

@MrMalky @TripeUK @anneliese_midge We can’t see any cons in this debate to be honest @MrMalky is it the choice of independent shops or supermarkets you are opposed to? We are inclined to agree that Kendal Mint Cake should be available for free for all at all good outlets and motorway services.

TOMORROW: Are democratic systems less effective in managing the #coronavirus pandemic?

[Mat Corbett @antevista]

The covid-19 pandemic is a major test for us as a species: a transformational window of opportunity. Will we seize it?
