🧵 about #class#privilege and #privateeducation. Watching the Olympic swimming last night and Clare Balding said something in such an incredulous tone which summed up the establishment perspective and how their experience differs. 1/
Watch to the end. 3 people - ‘protected by high viz’ almost killed whilst doing something wholly beneficial for society.
This shouldn’t be normal but it is.
This is common criminal behaviour and we need to stop it or we will loose a vital transport choice.
I see @BBCNews are having a news blackout on Tory peer Michelle Mone having her house raided by police. Please retweet if you consider this to be newsworthy.
Let's hope the American people vote the lying, racist, fascist, bankrupt, bone spur coward Trump out of office tonight and he can be prosecuted for his corrupt and evil ways. #VoteHimOut 🇺🇸✊🏼
A champion of a friend. A champion of a teammate. Now a Champion of the World.
So so so deserved. What an incredible rider to represent our sport in the Rainbow Jersey for the next year. Congratulations @alafpolak 👏👏👏😚🔵🔴⚫️🟡🟢

Sad to hear today about the death of Peter Green who was the original guitarist and singer with Fleetwood Mac
Just think ... Oh Well / Albatross / Need Your Love So Bad / Green Manalishi
I saw him live once in the late 60's ....... he was superb
Peter was only 73
🤦♂️ The Tories took a working digital voting system, which took 15 mins to vote, and scrapped it for one where every MP stands in a 1km conga line to vote, taking 40 minutes minimum per vote.
🏴 In the Scottish Parliament, it takes 30 seconds to vote.
What kind of person is it who owes his life to overseas health workers and then not only insists they have to pay a surcharge to use the NHS themselves but also plans to increase that surcharge in the worst recession for 300 years. Answer: Boris Johnson, our Prime Minister.
The people criticising teachers right now are the same as those who tried to shame junior doctors for striking
Like NHS staff, teachers have dedicated their lives to serving other people, and there cannot be shame in caring about the welfare of others

Cycling UK member and NHS nurse Margaret Hearn has had her bike stolen from outside the surgery where she works. The touring bike is a 30-year-old purple Longstaff and has huge sentimental value.
Share this post to help Margaret get her beloved bike back! https://t.co/uY3a4cjCLp
This is footage from the UK yesterday.
Actually heartbreaking to watch when at least 200 NHS and care staff have died.
We just need to keep it together for a little while longer - why is that so hard to understand?
Johnson ought to announce his plans to Parliament, not commandeer the TV in order to speak to the nation as if he was the supreme leader in a tinpot tyranny. Away with him.
An ICU nurse after working 65 hours over the past six days. This is the face we should be seeing on front pages, not the charlatans who have cut/underfunded these heroes for decades. You say #buyapaper but perhaps it's time to represent the people of the UK not the privileged few
Incredible to remember that all through January, when China was dealing with the #COVID19 and we could have been prepared and informed
Our PM was absent on a holiday no one knows who paid for
The Government was boycotting the public broadcaster, the BBC
I share people’s disgust at this but not their surprise. It seems a fairly obvious consequence of weapons grade ‘free market’ ideology where employment rights, human rights & collective bargaining have been completely demonised by the right-wing press.
