I wrote for @unherd about speaking at two famous Debating Unions - Oxford and Cambridge. Warning: contains grounds for optimism. https://t.co/qXGUgRxqhJ

@lolylena @Marshall_MINI Congratulations! Can’t wait to meet it.

[Caroline MacVay @carovay]

@campbellclaret We have abandoned those in need. What do we have to be proud of?

[Caroline MacVay @carovay]

@RevRichardColes @RoryStewartUK One hopes not.

[Caroline MacVay @carovay]

This is authoritarianism. Peaceful protest no longer tolerated unless it supports the government line. So very sad.

[Revolting Subject @UnRoyalReporter]

This is what your celebrating.

Peaceful, legitimate protesters at a pre-planned event are arrested at 7.30am. Before they get their placards out.

If you're not angry, you're not paying attention

If you don’t have photo ID you can apply for an emergency proxy vote until 5pm on polling day.

Your proxy voter will need to show their ID to cast your vote.

This isn’t common knowledge (obviously) so share and tell those you know.

The crown estate owns a portfolio of properties worth £15.6bn, including 241 in central London. The red dots mark the properties.

In 7 days time we ll put a crown on the head of Charles iii. It will cost us £100ml for the privilege.

What century is this again? Remind me please.

@lolylena 2. was me.

[Animal Rising @AnimalRising]

THIS IS WHAT WE WERE TRYING TO STOP FROM HAPPENING.

Several horses fell during this race - how many will be killed due to their injuries?

Absolutely heartbreaking chaos for horses that never got a choice in the matter.

MAKE SURE THE GRAND NATIONAL NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN.
Sign our petition - this absolute disgrace of a "sport" should never, ever be allowed to continue.

The wife of ‘Sir Stanley’ couldn’t tolerate his abuse and nor should the rest of us. https://t.co/uRhqxQCWiK

@GoodwinMJ @RishiSunak I don’t think Rishi said enough about the people dying in ambulances outside A&E for want of properly funded and supported public services.

[Caroline MacVay @carovay]

@lolylena Mice with wings! Lucky fish.

[Caroline MacVay @carovay]

@RishiSunak Trumped up Boris. No morals. You’re breaking international law…..again.

[Nadia Whittome MP @NadiaWhittomeMP]

In the next election, you’ll be able to vote with:

✅ A 60+ Oyster card
✅ An Older Person’s Bus Pass

But not:

❌ An 18+ Oyster card
❌ Young people’s rail cards

Could there be a reason why the Tories don’t want young people to vote? 🤔

[Henrietta Freeman @hen10freeman]

It’s not acceptable that a disabled woman complains after she’s sent a man to do her same-sex care and her care is then withdrawn as punishment. She needs care to stay alive. That’s not being dramatic, it’s the truth.

[BBC Question Time @bbcquestiontime]

“The question is really about, should we, all of us in this room, be helping to fund private schools? And the answer is no”

Labour’s Vaughan Gething says the PM is “out of touch” with public opinion on the charitable status of private schools

@RestIsPolitics Really sad responses on the question of Qatar. Lots of ‘what aboutery’ and avoidance on such important human rights issues. So disappointing. Rory really is a Tory through and through.
