Boris Johnson agreed in the final hours of the protocol negotiations that there'd be customs declarations on goods exiting NI to Britain, despite the fact that 3 weeks later he told NI businesses there'd be "no forms, no checks" according to a new book

Funny how the Met police never heard the karaoke at the illegal parties at No 10 Downing St but can send over 20 officers to summonse protestor Steve Bray when he makes a noise in Parliament Square.
One rule for them and one for the rest of us

[Mark Johnson @Mark_AJohnson]

An army of Police have descended on Parliament square to clamp down on anti-Brexit campaigner Steve Bray’s protest. Today marks the first day officers can use powers under the new Policing Act to restrict protests deemed to be too noisy.

[Tom Davidson @TomDavidson09]

they might as well have called it the 'stop Steve Bray' law https://t.co/4Uu6RSGC6n

Remarkable speech. Addressed to the Russian people, it should also be heard everywhere.

Easy to make a small difference and when added up it makes a big difference. Choose wool, keep warm and not sweaty, turn the thermostat down a degree or 2. Wrap in a Real Shetland Wool throw, comfy and warm and helping wool producers in Shetland @ACurtisOnline @realshetland

A year ago today, Liz Truss signed a post-Brexit trade deal with Japan, and subsequently told Parliament it delivered ‘higher’ benefits than our previous deal via the EU. Now I can reveal her officials advised her on how to correct that false claim, something she never did. (1/5)

@mrjamesob Deja vu. Back to the three day week, power shortages, strikes, general unrest. We got out of that hole by joining our neighbours in Europe.. Remember it well!

A beautiful close up of William Morris’s design ‘The artichoke’ woven at the mill in lovely subtle colours. Weaving a traditionally printed design brings a new level of depth to such classic designs.

I’m not going to retweet the hateful video from today’s protest. Instead I’ll share this from @charliemackesy to express my love and thanks to everyone working in the NHS. 💙 #gotyourbackNHS
