Boris Johnson says crime fell 20% while he was London mayor - which is true, but it fell 26% in the whole of England and Wales during that time #bbcournextpm
😱Tory leadership race day 1😱
- Police in midnight call to Johnson flat over row with his partner
- Minister Mark Field suspended over physical handing of protestor
- Tory whips investigate abusive texts between Tory MPs
- Tory MP ousted by constituents over expense fraud
Are we obliged to accept Boris Johnson as our prime minister if we play no part in the process of electing him? I don't recognise his right or his fitness to hold that office. Not my prime minister, thanks.
That a self-serving, facile, shameless charlatan is all but certain to be the next Prime Minister speaks volumes about the state of our country and its politics.
We deserve so much better than this.

Charge the man who threw the milkshake (how is that even a sentence). But for the love of God, charge the man and his cronies who the milkshake was thrown on. There is enough evidence of campaign fraud, election interference, and illegal spending to create some justice. So do it.
Every single tiny thing Farage says is workshopped and planned. People like him because they think he speaks his mind and is authentic, he in fact speaks the mind of data company plotted lines decided long before he says them. He's a knock off and a cheap one at that.
Maybe I'm just not as funny as Nigel Farage eh #hignfy@haveigotnews !? He's so funny, he seems to be on the BBC all the time! An explanation would be appreciated, not least to acknowledge the hard work of the entire crew who worked diligently to put the show together.

@bbclaurak analysis: "This could mean people want to just get on with Brexit" 🤪
A violent far-right mob escorts Tommy Robinson (a far-right thug, career criminal and advisor to UKIP) to Warrington, where they make trouble amid babies and children.
This is NOT what democracy looks like. This is what fascism looks like
If in the European Elections you vote:
• Labour, it is a vote for Brexit
• Conservative, it is a vote for Brexit
This tweet is not seeking to convince those who are pro - Brexit. It is seeking to highlight, the outcome of your vote. Know the reality and vote accordingly. 🇪🇺
I believe the New York Times said it best opening their article ‘How Does He Survive? The Curious Case of Failing Grayling’ with a simple but apt sentence: “They call him Failing Grayling.” This man has just waisted 50 million, the annual salary of 2000 NHS nurses. Fire him. Now.
