@bbcdoctorwho "Blink" is the one I've suggested to people a few times, completely standalone and as memorable as they come...

We're so proud of @TeamGB, especially our Yorkshire-born athletes during Tokyo 2020.

Here's how they would have fared in the medal table if we were our own country:

@AndyLeighton8 @AngelLady75 @JamesNUFC75 @LukeEdwardsTele @DPJHodges but that's the shadow front bench before the election, not the final cabinet?

OMG 😱

Farage’s party came second in 120 constituencies

They got 12.6% of the votes - 3rd highest vote share

They got 2 MPs

While the winning party only got 36.9%

Oh no, wait a sec - that was UKIP in 2015!
