@mrscatherine__ Motorcyclists that don’t fasten their helmets and also seem to have a million gears to change up. Oh and then they crash and die because that’s what happens to people on motorcycles…

@IainDale Who are these people who act with grace and integrity? Is this the sort of thing we can come to expect from this current crop of politicians? I bloody hope so 🤞

@krishgm Sounds more like an incentive to cross the channel rather than a deterrent 🤦‍♂️ Imagine, coming from a 3rd world country with nothing and a short boat ride away is unimaginable wealth and free housing for 5 years…

@NonQualifyingLH @luhc @michaelgove Leaseholders trapped into properties they cannot sell, with rising mortgage rates leaves a growing market for the mega rich to collect on cheap properties and destroy the small landlord market. It's another Tory scandal

@HarryYorke1 How can this not be an abuse of office? How?

@veggieequallife @BMA_JuniorDocs @Doctors_Vote For those tweeting about other people on lower wages struggling, I get it but... How much effort, sacrifice and commitment goes into becoming a doctor and how much responsibility do they carry. Should their pay reflect that or should we all be on minimum wage?

@GoodLawProject Why are we focusing on the definition of a party. The law referred to gatherings i.e. numbers of people in one place for any reason. Laws which we're clearly broken. Am I missing something?

@visordown I might believe the intention behind loud pipes saves lives if folk with them did loads of training and wore high Viz...

@campbellclaret ...And it will cost £40M. I wonder where that could be better spent?

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

This is an appalling decision. It should be reversed immediately.

[Rory Bremner 💙🇺🇦 @rorybremner]

Did you know this? #railstrikes

[Adrian Beckham @bexupnorth]

This is why people are climbing aboard boats and crossing the channel. We set up an online application process for Ukraine, why can't we do it for others and end this misery fairly?

[Francoise Goral Reyes 💙 @FramcoiseR]

FOR THE BRITISH PEOPLES’ INFORMATION! If your politicians do NOT know your own legislation, they should resign; if they DO know this legislation but choose to lie about it, they should be sacked.

[Adrian Beckham @bexupnorth]

Our leaders should not be so insulated from the impacts of their decisions.

[Rachael Swindon @Rachael_Swindon]

Tory MP for Telford @lucyallan claimed a staggering £4,552 on expenses to pay her utility bills for the 2019/20 tax year.

Please retweet this if you would like £4,552 from the government towards your bills this winter.

I am sorting my dashcam footage from last couple of month and got to my car journey from Glasgow to Helsinki and I thought it can show you nicely what Brexit means

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

To my friends in the media:
This is a time of high drama, I agree. But while you gossip endlesly about who's in and who's out, you have almost entirely ignored the Public Order Bill that was passed in the Commons this week: the most draconian legislation of the modern era.

[Adrian Beckham @bexupnorth]

This! Amongst sooo many other things.

[Peter Stefanovic @PeterStefanovi2]

Absolutely superb from @KayBurley

Kwasi does a U turn, but are we supposed to forget about those that made millions shorting the pound and damaging our economy even further on his nod and a wink?

[Adrian Beckham @bexupnorth]

#JodieComer is amazing in the stunning #primafacieplay utterly brilliant, disturbing, enlightening, eloquent and so much more.

@MartinSLewis @bbc5live Our conservatory. A self build from a high end company, initially delivered with non waterproof paint then repacked while the paint was still wet so that it all stuck together. 18 months from delivery to rectification.

@hoopfrood344 @visordown Agreed, took one for a test ride and was amazed how much fun it was. Back wheel spinning up everywhere, decent handling, good brakes and what an amazing noise!
