@DavidDack I used to run 21m 5k at 60, I’m now 71 and happy when I manage sub 30.
So I agree 5k is hard at whatever pace you can run, run/walk

@LBC @BenKentish Talk about misreading the room. There is no support for MPs and their drinking whilst at work. Being an MP is their work and they need to be 100%, not with any intoxication.
Make the House of Parliament a workplace with no alcohol. There is no shortage of places nearby.

@Peston Farage visits and more insults for the UK, just wondering

[Mike Kendall @mk1955]

@DavidDack I’m still running at 71. London marathon GFA in April. Full Spine ultramarathon in June. And long term plans to keep enjoying my running. And cycling, swimming and S&C work.

@EstherMcVey1 @sharrond62 Perhaps the contracts were set up be the previous government @Conservatives

@KemiBadenoch @DamianHinds @Conservatives @Telegraph I think you will find Brexit is identified as the main cause!

[Mike Kendall @mk1955]

@afneil It’s how we chose to afford the welfare state. Many political choices made in recent decades that have made it seem unaffordable.

[Mike Kendall @mk1955]

@sharrond62 Read the judgement and you will see it is not political in itself even if it has a political impact. Just like your statement here.

[Mike Kendall @mk1955]

@BBCBreakfast There should be no interest charge on student fees as the current system is regressive favouring the wealthy and higher earnings

[Mike Kendall @mk1955]

@zoeharcombe @ProfTimNoakes Perhaps he read about it, wrote about it and did the maths… at school and at home.

[Mike Kendall @mk1955]

@RupertLowe10 You can still look at the content you just have to age verify. Nothing unusual here

[Mike Kendall @mk1955]

@Councillorsuzie Having lived through many conservative governments going back to the 1960s I know who has most damaged this country and it is not Labour. They have had to pick up your pieces every time

[Mike Kendall @mk1955]

@KemiBadenoch Define British families🧐

[Mike Kendall @mk1955]

@BBCWorld About time. The majority of the population have been appalled for many months about what is happening in Gaza and the HMG response

[Mike Kendall @mk1955]

@Conservatives Just need employers to pay a real wage and not expect low wages to be subsidised by the state. Simple solution

[Mike Kendall @mk1955]

@KemiBadenoch @Conservatives Let’s just increase the minimum wage and pay higher wages. Just think more tax revenues, more spending in the high street, an economic recovery from austerity…

[Mike Kendall @mk1955]

@IsabelOakeshott You are being a silly billy😬

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

What Starmerism forgets is that giving your money to BlackRock, Amazon and Palantir is taking money OUT of the economy.

Giving it to nurses, teachers and doctors is putting it INTO the economy.

It's not nurses who use tax havens!

[Mike Kendall @mk1955]

@GuidoFawkes I’m sure there are some competent reporters out there who fact check before posting silly articles

[Mike Kendall @mk1955]

@SaulStaniforth I think here briefing was heavily influenced by Israeli lobbyists. No logical explanation otherwise
