@jofollowsracing @PhilMyers53 No, you don't have to listen to what people tell you at all. You learn to fact check and logically test what people tell you before deciding whether to believe them or not. It's called critical thinking, and it's not something you need to go to university for- many books exist.

@Alantarry013 @BellaWallerstei That's neither a joke nor acceptable. I'm glad that age apparently hasn't dulled my brain sufficiently to think that's amusing.

[Chris Rees @cmjrees]

@Alantarry013 @BellaWallerstei I don't think "women drivers" has been an acceptable "joke" as long as I can remember. Reform voters like to say others are in a bubble, I think they're in their own "down the pub" bubble.

@MAGAImported @Keir_Starmer That's incredible, coming from someone whose handle is MAGA.

@ianc66cov @ianrich15813274 Of course it's ok for unions to fund the Labour Party. The clue is in the name.

Hey @BurgerKing, my daughter has emailed a couple of fast food chains asking about why while adult vegan options are plentiful you don't have any kids' offers- BK seems impossible to contact in the UK and your partnerships@ email address bounced. Do you have a feedback contact?

@Journojulz @MrJamesMay @Britannica Breaking the bonds is still heating. That's why they call it latent heat ;)

@sibbzdj @johnbortho @RupertLowe10 @lounew13 Usually foster care and adoption processes strongly favour ethnic and cultural matches. The only way this happens is because we don't have enough white foster carers. We should be grateful that they are helping to fill the need.

@Y1D0S @SaulStaniforth @Keir_Starmer Iran?

[Chris Rees @cmjrees]

@oIIyjm @SaulStaniforth That letter appears to categorically say that ministers were *not* informed. Have I misread it?

[Chris Rees @cmjrees]

@PaulSumner71 @DPJHodges I can't see any grammar issue there. It's difficult to read, but it's not wrong.

@PhilBrown1956 @LewisJWarner Pretty sure the bankruptcy was caused by historical sex discrimination claims. My understanding is that the problems that caused the claims were under Conservative leadership.

@Nangela72 @JohnnyFocal They aren't.

[Chris Rees @cmjrees]

@peanut_astro @JohnnyFocal Yes, pensions definitely are welfare. It's not a dirty word, you know.

@flydhull @cbo305 @ScorperOfOrcs @BarackObama Henry Ford used to have his workers beaten up when they wanted fair working conditions.

That's why he didn't need government help.

[Chris Rees @cmjrees]

@SandraWilcock1 @GordonFielden @BorisJohnson Starmer at the time was advocating to get a group together to get schools open as quickly as possible using large public spaces. School closures were likely one of the biggest problems the country experienced at the time, and the after effects remain even now.

[Chris Rees @cmjrees]

@Secul8r @Dirty_Pitchfork @DPJHodges They don't need to fall into the trap of the dirty smear campaigns that they have here.

Their attack on the Greens over drugs is stupid.

@FeniksKnowsBest @DavidLammy @nigelfarage @grok Has David Lammy made death threats against Donald Trump? What did he have to say about the assassination attempt on Trump?
