Retired lecturer, still keeping an eye on digital, but mostly staggered that people still support the Torys and Brexit. * Pro EU*

I’m a past winner of the Orwell Prize & won partly because I exposed Vote Leave’s unlawful activities.

Michael Gove was its co-convener & refused to answer a single q. He’s now a judge of the prize & our world is truly one that Orwell would recognise

Since Boris Johnson came to power, there were 142 Tory U-turns.

In one case, 3 in one day.

I listed and documented them on a thread which ran from Dec 2019 to June last year.

On each of them, #BBC’s Mason declined to ever use the word ‘U-turn’.

Amazing how pumped @afneil is all of a sudden about government lies. It’s as though the Johnson administration never happened. A govt. led by a ‘pathological liar’, a narcissist wholly unfit for any kind of office. Neil is a poseur, bought & paid for by his billionaire bosses.

🔥 This is an utterly superb speech by Gavin Newsom, Governor of California.

In it he sets out clearly the chain of escalating events - and then goes onto fully call out Trump’s authoritarian push in perfectly clear language.

Was just fully denied the right to travel today at Liverpool St Stn, on any train, because @networkrail staff collectively refused to deploy a ramp for me.

Why? One of them claimed I was “rude” for telling him I didn’t need the lecture he was giving me on why they’d failed to …

[Carole Cadwalladr @carolecadwalla]

This has been in plain sight for years, ignored by both main parties and most media outlets. The government must now have the inquiry that Boris Johnson refused. Enough of the cover ups. We must now have light.

My thought for the day. Single Market. Customs Union. More money for defence. Strengthen Europe. Place us firmly back at the heart of our continent economically, militarily and geopolitically.

@LauraTrottMP Have you got that evidence I asked you to produce yet? The evidence that academy freedoms drive school improvement. No? Thought not.

@Alex_Sibley @lhendo @TheCoopLive Thank you!

People say the UK needs a disruptive innovator and entrepreneur. We have one! Greg Jackson has turned a Utility company into a popular, CUSTOMER focussed business. But it upsets the fossil fuel lobby. He deserves a knighthood. ❤️ & RT if you agree.

[Jenny Jones @GreenJennyJones]

Had a quick chat with the Minister y'day, re the scam of offsetting. But all the while it's legal, the Govt will use it to fool us into thinking various practices are renewable, when they clearly aren't.

@elonmusk GB news is on the brink of bankruptcy and is not even in the top 5 UK news channels... It's been fined repeatedly for deliberately spreading missinformation

Elon is once again spreading bullshit using his proxy accounts to try to support Farages grift

[Chris Smith @chrissssmith]

For someone who binned Sure Start as soon as he got into office, despite reams of data showing how positively it impacted young children from the poorest backgrounds, to whine about this in this way now is pure hypocrisy

Your occasional reminder that the 26 CofE Bishops in the House of Lords make the UK one of just two countries in the world, where unelected clerics automatically sit in the legislature.

The other is Iran.
