“I’m flabbergasted. You linked Winter Fuel Payments eligibility to Pension Credit which we know is a flawed system. You’re sitting here saying we know there’s a flawed means test in Pension Credit so why the hell did you link Winter Fuel Payments to a flawed means test?”

When California had the drought a decade ago I asked during a Mother Jones editorial meeting where the water had gone and everyone laughed at me and said “everyone knows where it went” and I said “I don’t know where the water went but I know that it didn’t disappear so it went somewhere” and they said “I don’t have time for this” and ran away and it became a running gag internally because I was like “they can’t answer this basic question” and was so obstinate about it that when I ended up having to edit any stories about the drought I would constantly add edit notes like “must answer: where did the water go” and they would have to wait and find another editor to avoid me because they were like “this editor is a moron” and then after five years or whatever I got this text from one of them and they were like “I was talking to a scientist recently and one thing led to another and I mentioned that there this prick at the company obsessed with where the water went and they said ‘actually we just found the water’ and they sent me the study and there is an answer to your question.’”

🧵My favourite Jimmy Anderson story comes from 29 June 2021. It was the day England beat Sri Lanka in an ODI at Chester-Le-Street but, more notably, the day England beat Germany in the Euros. Anderson was working @bbctms on commentary that day...

1/2 I have a small Angela Rayner personal anecdote...

When I was struggling with how elitist Westminster was when I first started in the lobby, she gave me an important pep talk on how we can't let privileged people make us feel like we don't belong in these spaces

Fun Fact: Bill Clinton was elected president more than 30 years ago in 1992, and is still younger than both 2024 presidential candidates.

Alex Rodriguez asked a question. Reggie Jackson answered it.

(Shouts to the producer and rest of the desk for staying out of Reggie’s way and just letting him talk. I doubt they expected this answer. But it’s a great few minutes of television.)
