@_Evolutionism @David__Osland Those plants that survive being coated in exhaust particulates, anyway.

@MarcusJBall Johnson supporters will not watch the film. They believe the Mail on Sunday has told them all they need to know, and they refuse to think for themselves.

@MarinaPurkiss Even if it were true that turning the phone on could allow a foreign power access, that's not Johnson's problem. He should hand it over to the authorities and let them take responsibility for extracting the data.

@itvpeston @Jeremy_Hunt @Peston And the quickest way I can halve inflation is to crack down on pay rises.

@dragong1rl @madgie1941 @RishiSunak Yes, if we stop spending on unnecessary things like food, heating, rent and mortgage payments, then as the population falls, so will prices, apparently.

@marshall_proEU Their leader, Boris Johnson, told them to abstain, so they abstained. It's as simple as that.

[Tobi @TobiFrenzen]

Ah you see:
"Boris would have easily won, if he hadn't told his backers to abstain"

To believe that, you have to believe that hundreds of his supporters obeyed and abstained, but these seven disloyal 'Johnson haters' voted against it anyway to make him look like a total Ioser!

@jdpoc @Bren4Bassetlaw One rule for them; one for the rest of us.

@wtfisgoingonpod @mrmarksteel @MickFerry @elliotsteelcom Give ChatGPT an Eton accent and get it to throw in a bit of Latin, and they'd make it PM.

@lewis_goodall Anybody else suspect that there is a, "You can have your resignation honours list if you resign as an MP" quid pro quo going on here?

@Jorges_Fudges @andrewmeyerson @spectator I wish I could read about this corrupt, incompetent Tory government in a history book rather than have to suffer the reality every day.

@AndrewJFrizzell @mrjamesob He had to change the number, as it had been available on the internet for 15 years. He just took the opportunity to get a new phone on expenses.

@David__Osland It's simple. The poor need to be paid less to work harder, whilst the rich need to be paid more to work harder. Back in the 80s I remember finding that I was in the fortunate position of needing to be paid the same amount year in year out as an incentive to work harder.

@BrexitBin Boris Johnson: literally a waste of oxygen.

[Anthony Houghton @ajho51]

@HarryYorke1 @Gabriel_Pogrund @cazjwheeler If Trump can declassify documents with his mind, then surely Johnson can declare dinner parties lawful just by thinking it.

@thedailymash At least he didn't try to emulate John Selwyn Gummer and feed it to his daughter.

@JossMacLeod What GPs need is a "global leader in next-generation digital services and consulting" like, say, Infosys to sort out their switchboards.
