@AmosMurphy_ Good diverse audience in the studio there.

[The Secret Barrister 🦋 @BarristerSecret]

CLIENT: Why are you here?

ME: I’m your barrister

CLIENT: But I sacked you months ago. Remember? You lied and broke the law and proved yourself wholly incompetent.

ME: Yeah, but you instructed me in 2019. So I have a mandate. Boom!

*HIGH FIVE. WE ENTER COURT. CLIENT GETS LIFE*

@pritipatel Until I saw this tweet, I didn't understand the blind dull-wittedness of those suited folk who unsolicited, knock on strangers doors inviting them to follow a god.
Presumably you're not brainwashed, yet STILL want the rest of us to follow....just wow. #mandateofthepeople ?

[Larry North @Larryupstairs]

@RoylePin Strong eyebrow game.
Hope you kicked the "You look like..." bloke in the nuts.

Shambles. Get Mike Brearley in.

[David Lammy @DavidLammy]

The idea that it’s acceptable that 357 Conservative members of Parliament choose our 3rd PM in as many months is unacceptable.

We need a General Election NOW.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

General. Election. Now. Or take to the streets …. Five Prime Ministers in six years. Just fuck off. All of them

[Parody Ken Clarke @MrKennethClarke]

Crashing the UK economy because of your far right wing agenda and then blaming it on Putin’s horrific war is incredibly disingenuous.

[Parody Ken Clarke @MrKennethClarke]

Christ! Are we even U-turning on resignations now?

[edgarwright @edgarwright]

Every time there's a new PM take a shot.

[Jamie Murray @jamie_murray]

General Election PLEASE!

[Dr Julia Grace Patterson💙 @JujuliaGrace]

General Election NOW.
RT if you agree 👍

[Thom Yorke @thomyorke]

Do you think she waited until today to ensure she wasn't in office for a shorter period than Brian Clough's reign at Leeds?

@clintcuthbert @abcsport @JJPNaylor @benjaminjadams7 @TheIanPickering Waiting there.

@clintcuthbert @MichaelWarbur17 @TheIanPickering Watched it again a fortnight ago. Still finding new delights in it 30 years after first viewing.

[Larry North @Larryupstairs]

@ted_harsh @GeorgeDobell1 Careful with in-the-box-thinking of that nature, please. You're in danger of making coverage both accessible AND efficiently packaged. Old school ECB will send out the heavies to have you silenced if you're not careful.

[Larry North @Larryupstairs]

The work putting more professional contracts in place (as the Australian board did a hole back) won't glean overnight results. Creating an experience vacuum in the team and removing Edwards as director would be wildly counterproductive.

@bbctms Presumably Mr Blackwell (05:48) has a crop of elite players of whom the ECB are unaware? A less hyperbolic response may perhaps be to acknowledge an formidable opponent at the top of their game. (1/2)
