I had the weirdest fecking dream.

My name was Eileen and I was Des O'Connor's wife.

The disgraced Home Secretary @SuellaBraverman claimed £2,684 back on expenses to cover the utility bills on her second home last year.

Retweet this if you think Braverman should be paying for her own utility bills.

@tracey_thorn @ben_watt @ebtg When I gave birth to my youngest at home, way back in 1997, Walking Wounded was playing on a loop as he entered the world. As you may expect, I am now very much looking forward to next spring x

It still astonishes me that around 1 in 4 voters continue to support this government despite the very visible corruption, unapologetic disregard for the ordinary person, endless blatant lies, and the unhinged depravity that seems to have engulfed the Tory Party. Unbelievable!

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

The Spanish Government has now announced that train journeys will be free on short and medium journeys until the end of 2023 to help with the cost of living crisis.

And it's pushing ahead with a Windfall Tax on the profits of banks.

Let's fight for that here too!

[Helen Baxter @nell2609]

Latest utility bill forecast, following 1st October hike.

How? And, why aren't we marching in protest?

[Helen Baxter @nell2609]

Never been to Norway before. Spent the last 10 days here and I never want to leave.

Bonne nuit, Paris.

Hike the Windfall Tax on oil and gas profits - not our energy bills - Sign the Petition! https://t.co/LMCrAXUih3 via @UKChange

[Amanda Linehan @AMLinehan]

did you know? 10% of children drown while their parents are watching them. WATCHING them. What looks like jumping in the waves can quickly turn into the telltale bobbing or upright drowning position I experienced today.

Bit late to give advice.

@smileyrach2 Tallinn and Madeira very welcoming, Budapest not so.

We would be told a venue was full, then see other non-Brits be accommodated without a prior booking. Despite having purchased food/drink at one venue, we were told we wouldn't be allowed to stay unless we ordered alcohol...

[Rachael Swindon @Rachael_Swindon]

Michael Fabricant claimed £1,334
Edward Leigh claimed £2,332
Suella Braverman claimed £2,684
Lucy Allan claimed £4,552
Matt Hancock claimed £4,800

Just 5 of the 316 MPs that got you to pay for the utility bills on their 2nd homes.

We can’t go on like this. #EnergyPriceCap

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

The cost of living crisis and soaring energy bills are pushing millions of people into poverty. The government needs to take urgent action.

We need wealth tax and public ownership of energy, water, mail and rail companies now.

[Helen Baxter @nell2609]

@MartinSLewis Yup yup. From July I've had to up my gas/electric to £300. Shell are now demanding £421 every month. It's just not feasible.

[Jonathan Pie @JonathanPieNews]

It’s official. She’s a cunt!

[Helen Baxter @nell2609]

Depressing, must read thread:

[Martin Lewis @MartinSLewis]

Tragic news

The latest @CornwallInsight prediction, based on Ofgem's new methodology, is an 81% price cap rise in Oct (taking typical bill to £3,582/yr) and a further 19% in Jan (so £4,266/yr)

Action & planning is needed now. The zombie govt needs wake up sooner than 5 Sept...

[Helen Baxter @nell2609]

Wasn't sure what to make of this when I tentatively dipped my toe in, but it's rather good.

[Helen Baxter @nell2609]

Some top tips from @BillBailey - the perfect tonic, a complementary mixer, as a holiday read.

[Helen Baxter @nell2609]

I am glad she ruffled feathers.
