@HelenORahilly I too am heading to Bordeaux in September via Toulouse, Carcassonne and Narbonne. So looking forward to it.

@DavidGauke Congratulations! I'd take that as a win. Who knew you had such power and influence 😊

[Helen Smith @Hells2001]

@joannaccherry Good luck for the future. I so enjoyed your great speeches during the v sad brexit saga. It was a joy listening to well structured and intelligent debate, despite the attempts from across the floor to silence you.

not saying the Tory campaign is getting desperate but it’s now…vote Labour if you hate puppies and kittens

@carolvorders If the PM didn't have the self awareness or at least the political sense that this was a v poor decision; didn't anyone in his entourage have the guts to suggest he wait until the end of official proceedings before heading off to his TV interview? 🤷‍♀️

Repost this Led @ByDonkeys film about Rees Mogg as often as you can 👌

Particularly my friends in
"North East Somerset and Hanham" new constituency

Get Jacob Rees Mogg out in 4 weeks time

I might get down there myself to see what's going on 😉

@LiamThorpECHO It is referred to as the '3 day overland train' in our house. Tupperware with snacks essential. I was a regular user, and in summer, it's particularly grim

@RobbieRinder Some people should never be allowed to make decisions on any sensitive issue. At what point did someone think: omg we made a mistake, it will cost £££££s, but on the bright side we can recover some money by charging board and lodgings ? 🤷

@MarieAnnUK I suppose if you get your info from the mail or telegraph you wouldn't be aware of the wider ramifications

@AdamWagner1 @BBCr4today Why?

@MCTommiD @DanNeidle @Belibop There are conditional exemption for places of national importance. In exchange they must allow public access for a reasonable number of days per year.

@Ray_McCann55 This has been their dream for years and was in their manifesto back in the 90s. Bottom line, they can't afford it. If only many of those who are outraged at this tax realised they will never pay it. Around 20% of estates pay tax.

[Helen Smith @Hells2001]

@archer_rs I hope they close down. The best outcome for everyone

[Helen Smith @Hells2001]

@Steven_Swinford If this is how it works, may I be added to a list please? 😳🤣🤣🤣🤣

@PippaCrerar @kiranstacey What about improving existing stock to make them livable. Not that long ago he visited a family in Oldham whose child died because of the state of their home. So many wins they could have scored, but no, fail to plan, plan to fail.

[Helen Smith @Hells2001]

@carolvorders Is she still claiming expenses? Are we still paying her daughter's , alleged, £75k salary?

[Jessica Simor KC @JMPSimor]

This is the 3rd time I’m retweeting this but another thought; this puffed up little Lord is addressing someone who arrived on the Kindertransport - his response is vile at every possible level, including its insensitivity towards & disrespect for Lord Dubs, who is visibly shaken.

[Helen Smith @Hells2001]

@misterconnector @brianmoore666 There's nothing wrong with coming from Halifax!
