BREAKING: Suella Braverman admits that she forwarded work emails to personal phone SIX times.

She tells home affairs committee in a letter that none of these were secret 👇🏼

[Robin Wigglesworth @RobinWigg]

Jeez. This is one of the most depressing things I’ve read in a whole, from @DuncanWeldon via @DKThomp’s newsletter.

[Tim Shipman @ShippersUnbound]

Suella Braverman did not mistakenly leak a meaningless document. She endlessly consulted a maverick. She deliberately emailed a policy doc not yet agreed to her pvt email. Then she sent it to John Hayes and someone she thought was his wife. Then lied to PM about when it was sent

This gripping FT documentary on the effects of Brexit has now had 1.6m views in a week. Free to view. It is really worth your time - shows very clearly the economic cost of Brexit. Chapeau to producer @DanGarrahan and the other FT folk involved https://t.co/IqLLQVtWFH

What is so striking is how many conservative mps are still talking about what is “ best for the party”. It’s a real give away - that party still seemingly comes before country and constituents and democracy.

Britain faces a simple and inescapable choice - stability and strong Government with me, or chaos with Ed Miliband: https://t.co/fmhcfTunbm

[Eves Hill Farm @EvesHill]

Well this is all very exciting! Not long now until our #farmshop will be open! Selling our grass fed beef, free range pork and our free range eggs….. and more local produce. What would you like to see in our farm shop?

This is nonsense. To make that stamp duty saving you'd need to be buying a £500,000+ property.

With 10% deposit, cheapest fix mortgage would cost £2,400/mth (£28,000/yr). How can someone on £30k afford that

I am asking treasury to remove.

We all knew this was happening to the Russian High Command & that it would get absolutely get the Russian Army defeated in Ukraine.

A fair amount of people in high positions in
a lot of Western governments made believe it wasn't true, reasons.

To you, she was your Queen.
To us, she was The Queen.
She will be with all of us forever.

[Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen]

It is with deep sadness that I have learned of the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

She was the world’s longest serving Head of State and one of the most respected personalities worldwide.

I offer my heartfelt condolences to the Royal Family and the British people.

@BBCPolitics Trapped in lies and sophistry, we go around the same tired buoys

[Ben Goodwin @brggoodwin]

@shashj @jnichretired I’d add Keegan’s Price of Admiralty - for me even before The Face of Battle. A recent Art of War translation (like Michael Nylan’s), @LawDavF The Future of War, or even 2034 as accessible future conflict

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

I did not approve this dismal excuse for an apology before you published it. I do not accept it.
Here's why.
1. THESE WERE NOT ERRORS. The flood of similar reports from other customers suggest to me that the treatment my family suffered was not a mistake, but a policy. 🧵
