Really disappointed with @OctopusEnergy

I paid for a home EV install weeks ago, but they haven’t provided any update in over two weeks, or responded to any of my emails.

Just when you think Suella Braverman couldn’t say anything more moronic than: “Being homeless is a lifestyle choice”, she gifts us with this fresh slice of idiocy:

How many farmers will actually be affected by the changes to inheritance tax?

@DanNeidle does the math...

'The argument that we leave the ECHR is complete nonsense...it is absolute drivel.'

Former Conservative Party chairman, Lord Patten, does not hold back in his scathing analysis of Robert Jenrick's plans.

[Parody Nigel Farage @Parody_PM]

I’m looking forward to a barrage of abuse from the 4% of people who might actually pay inheritance tax and from millions of others who won’t pay it, but have been fooled into thinking they will by the 4%.

I’m not buying this line of argument. Johnson knew, as everybody in the Conservative Party knew, that the Brexit referendum was about heading off the (over-stated) electoral threat from UKIP and simultaneously dealing with a fringe group of MPs in the party who were a distraction and wouldn’t shut up. Nobody, Johnson included, thought the country would actually vote for it. There was never going to be a White Paper because nobody sensible could think of anything to put in it. The expectation was that the electorate would sort the Conservative Party’s internal squabbles out for them by decisively rejecting it and all would be well. As an aside, we have the choice of continuing with this failed non-policy or not, and the current government have chosen to continue with it. I would love to see a White Paper laying out the case for staying out of the single market and customs union.

I now want to look in more detail at Jenrick's nasty propaganda video.
It starts with a few examples of cases to make people angry. But those examples are in fact irrelevant to the case he is trying to make.

Jenrick has been an Immigration minister. He must know that the main problem with illegal or irregular migration is that when a person comes here and claims asylum, they may get it as a bona fide refugee in which case they can stay. That has nothing to do with the ECHR. It is a consequence of our domestic law and the Refugee Convention. He makes no suggestion we should leave it.
For those whose application is refused the main problem is that it is very difficult to return them to their countries of origin which will often not co-operate particularly if documents have been destroyed.
So leaving the ECHR will have minimal impact on the problem he claims to be addressing.

While I understand some of the criticism around Labour’s cut to Winter Fuel Allowance…

I have absolutely zero sympathy for people like Roger

Who text into @mrjamesob’s LBC show

…and got dealt with accordingly.

[Dale Vince @DaleVince]

If you’d rather leave the country than pay your fair share in taxes, I say go ahead.

Quite mild, really.

@elonmusk Badly needed by you.

Yes, a smoking ban is definitely comparable to the Holocaust. If you’re a histrionic lunatic.
