Hey @AdmiralUK, a 45% increase in my car insurance?! 10+yr no claims, no points, 7yrs a customer? I know there’s inflations but that’s just #profiteering @MoneySavingExp

@AdmiralUK 45% increase in my natural car insurance premium?!Been with you for 9 years, no claims for 15+ years. Is that the best you can do? #profiteering

MPs just voted on a motion to remove private schools' £1,700,000,000 tax break.

That could pay for free school meals for *all* primary school pupils almost twice over.

But Tory MPs voted it down, choosing to protect elite private schools, not improve opportunities for all kids.

The Daily Mail published 65 articles about Harry and Meghan in the last 24H.

For a rag that constantly accuses them of being attention-seeking, it's giving them an unbelievable amount of attention.

By coincidence, it published 0 articles about Michelle Mone during that time.

It’s all there in Britannia Unchained, co-authored by Liz Truss and Kwarteng: the pound can collapse, borrowing and mortgages can soar, pensioners can freeze, kids can go hungry, as long as the economy is ripe for venture capitalists freed from regulation and, ideally, tax.

These must be the sunlit uplands. Plane landed 70 minutes ago so it’s a great #BrexitBenefits opportunity for those disenfranchised but non-existent British baggage handlers to do the work that the largely EU handlers can’t. WIN. Zero comms from @easyjet or @LDNLutonAirport

[The Labour Party @UKLabour]

All your bills going up and up and up.

Taxes rising to the highest level in 70 years.

The worst economic crisis for a generation.

Not our words.

The words of those running to be the next Tory leader.

See what else they think of 12 years of Tory failure:

@jonneal_UK @SteveCavanagh_ Am reading this too! Good innit?

THIS is why ‘it was a work event, everyone broke the rules, people have moved on etc’ is utter BS.

I'm sad that Joe Root has stood down as England captain. He should have got nought in 27 innings, losing every match, ordered his team never to drink alcohol but been completely drunk during each match, then refused to go because he's said sorry and there's a war on.

@RussInCheshire Superb letter. Well done Russ. Tragically, inevitably, it will of course be ignored.

Boris Johnson, your deflections and distractions are absurd.

Not only did you know about the parties in Downing Street, you attended them.

Stop lying to the British public. It’s time to finally come clean.

[Carole Cadwalladr @carolecadwalla]

There’s been a million tweets already but I hope that when the story of Boris Johnson’s premiership is told, he’ll be remembered as the man who escaped a corruption crisis to go maskless in a hospital.

The rot spreads from the head. This is who we are now.

@gregjames surely that game should be called Greggers Plays Chop?

[David Conn @david_conn]

Nobody even asks Boris Johnson where the Brexit £350m is for the NHS; it’s just accepted that Britain left the EU based on huge lies, and all a bit embarrassing to bring it up.

[James O'Brien @mrjamesob]

It never stops being staggering that a government built on bogus promises to ‘control our borders’ in the face of fantasy threats failed completely to do so when faced with real & fatal ones.
