‘Brexit is no longer part of daily political discourse and dropped off the political agenda.’ Here’s why the UK needs to put the issue of Brexit back on the political agenda https://t.co/FfI9ioQprp
“She sits as a member of the legislature, making & revising laws for the rest of us until the end of her days.
We can’t vote her out. And we will have to fork out £332 a day every time she steps foot inside the HoL, plus travel expenses & subsidised food.”

My first non-EU passport. In a strangely beautiful illustration of Brexit’s absurdity, it was printed in Poland by a French company, and delivered to me by a German logistics firm.
Brexiters who mock Remainers for lamenting what we've lost & what we're missing thereby show that they have so little understanding of the EU that they had no right to take us from it, having instead ignorantly believed the lies of those who engineered the coup.
A travesty.
Keir Starmer pledges a crack down on cronyism.
“We need to clean up politics. No more VIP fast lanes, no more kickbacks, no more revolving doors between government & companies they regulate."
Me:I want prosecutions.
Return the money & jail time.😡
You?? https://t.co/6F3W8e5CLx
Now Johnny Mercer is using the "NEW HOSPITALS" definition technique loved by Tories.
🔷40 "new hospitals" promised with Brexit were redefined by the Tories into "a new additional building or refurbishment".
🔷Not new hospitals at all then.
🔷And so Mercer is ranting that HIS definition of "homelessness" is right even though it differs to that of the charity Shelter and all others. He would, wouldn't he?
🔷Mercer now claims when he says "homelessness" it means "sleeping rough".
🔷Except that isn't the definition used by everyone working within the Homelessness arena.
🔷It is "the condition of lacking stable, safe, and functional housing."
🔷Using the correct definition, veteran homelessness rose by 14% this year, in contradiction to Mercer's 'promise' in the House of Commons.
🔷Like James Cleverly recently said he called Stockton MP 'a sh*t MP' rather than Stockton "a sh*thole" (he did call that fine town by that name), this group of Tories seem to believe their claims and definitions simply because they say them!!
This is a wine bottling line. It is set up to bottle 750ml bottles, like every other wine bottling line. Retooling to 568ml would cost a fortune.
For absolutely no point whatsoever.

My slides "Strategies for success in a changing world" from yesterday's @bodleianlibs Staff Conference are available at. https://t.co/FcsjKc5oJd. They're part of #FutureLibraries, a new @ace_national funded project to help libraries have creative conversations about the future.
@ProfBrianCox Interesting that New Zealand is now a member. Shame UK can’t see the benefit same as one of our trading partners!!

The PM really does need to understand that he is now further damaging U.K. science by not immediately rejoining Horizon, presumably to placate some know-nothing fringe bloviators who know nothing about science, its value or how it’s conducted. As Lord Rees says below, it is baffling. Get on with it.
