@fletchthemonkey 100%

Anyone else feel physical pain when American actors try and do the British accent and fail miserably? Why not just cast a British actor? WHY

[Akala @akalamusic]

What about ‘black on black’ violence? A thread for the ultimate pretend counter argument...

[Amy Longland @amy_longland]

@jwilson94884 Understood, but why are people stockpiling as if there is going to be an apocalypse/food is going to run out indefinitely?

[Amy Longland @amy_longland]

Serious question: what actually is everyone stockpiling for? Does everyone know something I don't? #CoronaVirus #COVID-19

[Amy Longland @amy_longland]

@anandMenon1 I am genuinely baffled!

[Matt Forde @mattforde]

Supermarkets have been able to cope with the demands of 60 million people every day of the year for my entire life. The system works. If you stockpile, not only are you ruining a system that means you can always get what you need when you need it, you’re a selfish twat.

[Amber Rudd @AmberRuddUK]

During Gov briefings am I the only one thinking ‘where are all the women?’ Why are there no senior women in the “war cabinet” or used to convey those critical messages? Equality means better decisions. Don’t pack the women away during a crisis.

[Amy Longland @amy_longland]

This is an AMAZING series everyone watch and read the books 🤩

[Malorie Blackman @malorieblackman]

Noughts + Crosses, episode 2 - tonight on BBC1 at 9pm. Ooh! What's going to happen next? 😀

Tell your friends. Tell everyone!

@MatthewPWoods @HeathrowAirport Still not 100% convinced, despite the CMO saying it

[Amy Longland @amy_longland]

Just landed at @HeathrowAirport. Not a single member of staff wearing masks or gloves. I wasn’t screened when I got off the plane. I have just got back from South Africa via Istanbul and everyone had at least a mask. It’s this apathy which will get us in deep trouble #CoronaVirus

[Amy Longland @amy_longland]

Watching the TV adaptation of @malorieblackman’s epic Noughts and Crosses book series... and... wow... I am BLOWN AWAY IT IS AMAZING

[Olipa Phiri @iamOlipa]

@amy_longland from @commonwealthsec presenting on "Building peaceful co-existence: Preventing and countering violence extremism in the Commonwealth" at the #Commonwealthfutures workshop held in @DUT_Tweets with @The_ACU

[Amy Longland @amy_longland]

First session of today: “Spectrum of Violence: Developing a Stronger Conceptual Grasp of what Violence is” - participants are given different scenarios and will be asked to consider how “violent” each is 🤔 very interesting start to the day! #CommonwealthFutures

[The Association of Commonwealth Universities @The_ACU]

“As young people, you have the potential to break the status quo and be the disrupters we need to work towards peace & eradicating violence”
