There's a tonne of additional Brexit-related changes coming down the pipe. We're not done with the upheaval yet!

I've laid out the timeline for these changes below.

30 June 2021: Deadline to apply for the EU Settlement Scheme in the UK.

Hey @koderapp - is it intended that if I switch to another app and then back to koder, that koder has reverted to the top of the file? It’s very irritating! Is it a bug or am I missing a setting?

[Karl Dyson @karldyson]

How many will fall for this “man of the people in a hoodie getting on a train like normal people” BS…? FML

Vote. Vote tactically.

[Politics UK @PolitlcsUK]

🚨 NEW: Rishi Sunak has just boarded an overnight sleeper train to Penzance to start the South West Tory campaign in the morning

[Karl Dyson @karldyson]

Izzatdust vs Imperial was always going to end one way. Imperial just storming. All awesome. Fantastic to watch. Congrats to Imperial for their record breaking 5th win.

#UniversityChallenge

[Robbi Dee @RobbiGeeDee]

@JonathanPieNews Question: How much does he expect to (still) benefit from holding that position if he is prepared to pay that much to retain his post? 🤔

[Karl Dyson @karldyson]

Just caught up with #universitychallenge and woah, awesome performance by UCL to come back and win from what, -10 - 95…?

[Otto English @Otto_English]

Prime Ministers should send their kids to state schools and use the NHS. As a basic requirement.

If Sunak doesn't think either are up to scratch for his own kids and his family's own needs - after 14 years of Tory government then that tells you everything frankly.

[Farrukh @implausibleblog]

Left: Rishi Sunak, "We've been through a tough time over the past year as a country.. I really believe we've turned a corner and we are heading in a right direction.. There's a brighter future for your viewers and their children"

Right: There are 14.4 million people living in poverty

Poor @dpdcare experience of my @bellabarista delivery.

Driver puts the package down in plain view, presses the doorbell, takes a picture, goes back to his van and drives away.

No attempt to determine if anyone is home.

No attempt to find a neighbour or safe place.

Very poor.

[Greg Jackson @g__j]

When we launched @OctopusEnergy we were determined to make energy more transparent - so we published APIs for anyone to integrate products and services. Still the only company to do so, afaik.

And it allows lovely stuff like this…

[Karl Dyson @karldyson]

Does he realise who’s been in govt for the last 14 years? How fucking stupid does he think people are to sit there and say they’re trying to bring taxes down and that it’s in any way Labour’s fault that taxes are high? Christ. Sad thing is, some people will still vote for him.

[Farrukh @implausibleblog]

Bob Seely, "The Conservative party want to bring taxes down, and the Labour party continue to push taxes up, and they're at their highest burden since WWII"

Victoria Derbyshire, "Yes, because of the Conservatives in government for 14 years. That's why, it's nothing to do with Labour"

[Karl Dyson @karldyson]

So, @RoyalMail have sent me a picture of my parcel outside a front door as proof of delivery of my @FormNutrition delivery.

Only problem is that it’s not my front door and it’s not a picture that facilitates identifying the address of the front door.

[Karl Dyson @karldyson]

*re* joins.

I can’t believe these charlatans are talking about regaining things (likely with reduced input and sway) they took away from us as a cause for celebration.

More worrying, I’m sure too many people will fall into the trap and think this is progress :-(

[Rt Hon Michelle Donelan @michelledonelan]

How miserably small minded.

[Rishi Sunak @RishiSunak]

From today, the majority of foreign university students cannot bring family members to the UK.

In 2024, we’re already delivering for the British people.

[Karl Dyson @karldyson]

🤦‍♂️

[Channel 4 News @Channel4News]

"That's like the world's most exciting economic zone."

Rishi Sunak says his Brexit deal will put Northern Ireland in the "unbelievably special position" of having privileged access to the EU Single Market and the UK home market.

[Chris Grey 🇺🇦 @chrisgreybrexit]

A good clear explainer of things which still seem not to be widely understood 🧵

[Karl Dyson @karldyson]

Blimey. Just how long ago did they record tonight’s #onlyconnect Christmas show that Philip Schofield and Holly Willoughby are apparently still presenting This Morning…?

[Carol Vorderman @carolvorders]

Re @JohnnyMercerUK
🔹In July he said any military (pay frozen for yrs) using foodbanks was "a personal choice"
🔹However, his wife Felicity is paid by the taxpayer in his office.
🔹They almost TRIPLED her income in just 6 yrs
🔹From £15-20,000 band
🔹To £40-45,000 payband

They didn't like me pointing this out. I wonder why?

Thoughts?

High seas and wind speeds of 50+ mph, plus the arrival of Storm Gerrit, have seen ferry companies cancel services in the English Channel.

But in Cleverly land, this weather phenomenon is somehow the result of Tory policies aimed at stopping small boats.

[Karl Dyson @karldyson]

Cutting a tax that their rich mates are affected by and persuading an awful lot of people who wouldn’t be affected by it that they’re doing them a favour.

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

Jeremy Hunt is cutting every single benefit, including working, child, tax and pension credits.

To fund inheritance tax cuts for the rich.

Jeremy Hunt will save £6,000,000+
Rishi Sunak will save £282,000,000

96% will save nothing at all.
