I've taken the plunge and finally got around to signing up to @macmillancancer #bravetheshave. My hair will be donated to the @LPTrustUK. An ambitious £500 to raise, so please help out 😊

@beauti_animals It's Durham

@JDVance Hate to break it to you, JD, but 'Nowak' isn't a British name. He was as much a migrant as his murderer.

Now take your performative nonsense and shove it where the sun doesn't shine.

@neilorpen @Sai_Ishaya_ 28000 new jobs that will all pay tax, hundreds of thousands of tourists every year spending millions of pounds on travel, food, gifts with 20% VAT. Look at the bigger picture here.

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@Self_Gambit @Sai_Ishaya_ The current economic climate and cost of living is a separate issue to this. Large infrastructure projects like Universal UK are exactly how you get out of economic slumps

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@Self_Gambit @Sai_Ishaya_ Your thinking is too short term. A £1.3bn investment that will bring in multiple billions £££ per year for decades is an excellent investment for the taxpayer. Look at Euro Disney, Universal Orlando, Disneyland etc. - people literally visit the USA/France to go to these places.

@david_hollas A shameless opportunity pounced on by a shameless opportunist. I don't know why anyone is surprised about Farage, it's his MO 🤷‍♂️

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@Unionbuster @MetJam_ Of all the dumb things on X, this is one of the dumbest. Well done 👏

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@JacksAUstats @TakeThatClouds Hahaha. Categorically proven wrong, so you get in a huff and refuse to believe it. You lot are all the same, utterly pathetic.

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@_ClimateCraze @lakesdoglover I've just seen that it is 2200 when it begins trending down. Interesting data, I'll take a closer look at it.

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@_ClimateCraze @lakesdoglover This is a sincere question. In your 'modern warm period' composite trend, why is it trending down at the end of the time series? Temperatures continue to trend upwards, so the composite shouldn't be on a downward trend unless temperatures don't follow the composite?

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@TakeThatClouds @robinmonotti It's the latter. I wouldn't call it ragebaiting per se, but it's certainly a type of 'say idiotic things that vocal, chronically online, fringe members of society believe for engagement'. Maybe he believes the nonsense he spouts but I highly doubt it.

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@BohemianAtmosp1 Yes

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@RM63128921 @Playteaux1 It's almost like you're acclimatised (acclimated) to the heat and humidity. Almost like you're used to those conditions because you get them a lot. It's almost like most of Britain only gets conditions like this a few days a year and Brits aren't acclimatised. Almost.

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@Braxianto @AaronBastani Lol. Depends if they fail to see the obvious point they've just made. Like I said, you're so close to getting it. Stop being so angry and actually think critically about what you said - unseasonably cold temperatures that require central heating, then record breaking spring heat.

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@Braxianto @AaronBastani But you're so close to getting it. Your original post was about experiencing an extremely unusual, and extreme, spring temperature swing. Come on... engage those remaining brain cells and really think about it. You're so close to something resembling intelligence.

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@Braxianto @AaronBastani You're soooo close to getting it. Just engage those brain cells a little bit more...

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@Braxianto @AaronBastani You're actually right - in isolation it is just the weather. Well done you 👏

But yeah, extreme temperature swings in May aren't just normal. There are things called 'trends' - you should look them up clever clogs.

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@Braxianto @AaronBastani Wow... you're experiencing unusual, and extreme, temperature swings over the course of a couple of days. Wonder what could be causing that to happen...

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@robinmonotti No. That's not how long term trends work

[Nick Felstead @dr_felstead]

@tallrite Wrong. Moron.
