@alimony_king @JeanHatchet Just because you’re ignorant and misogynistic doesn’t mean it didn’t happen and isn’t right. Would it have been ok to have raped her if she hadn’t died? Idiot.

@perrigame Throw in some decent wine and cheese and I’m down.

[C. L. Bailey @clbaileywriter]

Disappointing start to the day. Supposed to be at @Wordfest_by_Sea Fatal Shore but not single parking space to be had so have had to turn round and head home

@OFalafel The tiny Lowry is awesome

[C. L. Bailey @clbaileywriter]

@MWCravenUK you have totally ruined videos about tiny birds for me since I read Black Summer. All I can think when I see them is the size comparison to an ortolan bunting now!

@kathyhoyle1 I’m trying to finish the book before going to see it tomorrow with new book club…it’s excruciating

[C. L. Bailey @clbaileywriter]

@Izaax_LK @Oxfamfestivals Thank you. They’ve asked for hospital report which will take weeks and we all know how pointless trying to get anything from the GP is these days, quite apart from which she’s registered at her uni town 3.5 hours drive away!

[C. L. Bailey @clbaileywriter]

Despite my 19yo daughter providing a crime no, pics of her injuries, evidence of Victim Support & counselling following a recent unprovoked serious assault, @oxfamfestivals are still refusing to return her ‘refundable’ Boomtown deposit without further evidence. Disappointing.

[C. L. Bailey @clbaileywriter]

@valmcdermid Awww nuts! Hope you’re on the mend soon…you guys were amazing at Harrogate last year.

[C. L. Bailey @clbaileywriter]

The woman with serious injury was my daughter. This idiot forcefully and deliberately threw a full pint glass which missed its intended target and smashed in her face.
If anyone can help to find him we’d be very grateful.

It is estimated that 3 women a week lose their lives because of domestic abuse. Call on the new government to prioritise the safety of women and girls - sign our letter now.

[C. L. Bailey @clbaileywriter]

@narindertweets This is an issue with the writer not with Catherine tbf. Just because you have loads of money and help doesn’t mean you can’t feel like crap and not fancy doing so with an audience of millions and god knows what written about you in the media afterwards.

Man in salmon, "The thing that concerns me is that public services in the UK are absolutely underfunded, they are broken" #BBCQT

"I work in child protection. And every single service I work with is at breaking point. If the polling is correct Labour will be the next government in the UK. And the revenue raising measure they have are nowhere near radical enough to raise the sums of money that public services need"

"They're simply wildy underestimating the nature and extent of the problem"

@PennyMordaunt Private school educated, chose a career in hedge fund management, partially responsible for the economic crash of 2007/8 then buggered off to California and launched a new hedge fund registered in the tax haven of the Cayman Islands…yep, definitely a man of the people…

Today I have written to the Prime Minister about the conduct of one of his members of parliament, ex-PM Liz Truss.

EXCL: HMRC has confirmed that Angela Rayner owes no capital gains tax for sale of former council house & that no further action will be taken, according to document seen by me @guardian 👇🏼

In countries where national service is commonly used (eg. Norway) it is usually then rewarded with free university places and basic quality of life - clean water, access to healthcare, affordable housing etc.

You can’t demand they serve if their leaders don’t.

@Richard0Connor @Peston This country’s youth is actually desperate for properly funded higher and further education and solid mental health care but okay…

@TheGr8Illusion @JoeBiden …you forget misogynist and Grade A dickhead
