that the same Churchill that infamously suggested Britain would have ‘Gestapo on the streets’ if Attlee’s Labour won? #PMQs

[Lewis Goodall @lewis_goodall]

Opening from Keir Starmer to Tory MPs: “Theirs is the party of a Winston Churchill. Our parties stood together as we defeated fascism...now their leader stands in the House of Commons parroting conspiracy theories of violent fascists to try and score cheap political point.” #PMQs

[Edward Chesterman @elchesterman]

just catching up on this: there was one woman who was so clearly not ‘undecided’, it was almost like she was a mole for the tories

Always time to catch some of the football.

Great to see England get off to a flying start #FIFAWWC - what a penalty from @StanwayGeorgia!

young voices in parliament are great and very needed in a sea of white, middle aged men, but also … makes me worried hes there to be dominated by the top brass

[Edward Chesterman @elchesterman]

feels like people forget that MPs don’t just represent their constituency but are also ultimately bosses of an office full of volunteers and employees

[Edward Chesterman @elchesterman]

you can be a bad boss at any age, but experience is important to becoming a better one, right? right???????

[Edward Chesterman @elchesterman]

the stranglehold Nigel Farage has on politics in this country is frankly baffling

[Edward Chesterman @elchesterman]

Am loving the way we are now tackling characters from the 60s in EXACTLY the way the characters from the 60s would want to be tackled

Musical about ‘first working-class model’ Twiggy to open in London https://t.co/9I7PdzNpYO

[Edward Chesterman @elchesterman]

what i mean by this is that these characters loved themselves, often believing they got to where they were because they were the BESTEST

[Edward Chesterman @elchesterman]

wrote an essay on this, it’s a very interesting piece of material culture, would love to write a whole book on it one day

Album covers that look eerily similar 🧵

[Edward Chesterman @elchesterman]

the biggest concern for Labour is beginning to think the poll lead is BECAUSE of this, rather than the mess the tories have made

[Edward Chesterman @elchesterman]

@surreycricket are crowds in today? would love to come down!!
