After much reflection, it's time to bid farewell. The seemingly interminable election cycle is finally over. I depart this platform having observed a political party’s almost unbelievable decline—one that deceived the electorate, eroded political standards, and gaslit a nation for 14 years.

@Robert___Harris No I’m watching the terrific coverage on Channel Four

[Armando Iannucci @Aiannucci]

How about something like ‘These views are my own and not those of the BBC’ from @GaryLineker and a ‘Sorry if we over-reacted’ from the BBC? The BBC tearing itself further apart is the sort of thing that gets anti-state fundamentalists on the Right out of bed in the morning.

@EVPuzzle Had no problem with the EGolf, now switched to an eC4 and it seems I can only schedule the warm up for a single time slot and then have to say which days I want it on at that time. A pain for weekends

[Richard Murphy @RichardJMurphy]

Rishi Sunak has claimed that to pay a 10% pay rise to all public sector employees will cost each household in the UK £1,000. This is what I call CRAp - which stands for a ‘completely rubbish approximation’ to the truth. Let me explain…a thread…

[Dr Peter Weeks @DrPeterWeeks1]

Now please if everyone retweets this it would be very childish, I like childish !

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

Do you think Johnson statement tells the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth? If so press LIKE. If on the other hand you think it is the deluded self-serving bullshit of a disgraced lying lawbreaker press RETWEET

@JamesMelville Experts hey, we’ve had enough of them. Better to stick to a narrative that keeps me in a job

@RestIsPolitics @campbellclaret @RoryStewartUK A caretaker, steady pair of hands with the proviso of a GE next May. Possibly Mordant or May

[Nigel Legg @nigell]

@JamesCleverly Don’t agree with your politics but I wish your wife well and hope she gets better soon

[Prof Anna Whitelock @AnnaWhitelock]

The last Elizabethan reign ended with the journey of a king from Scotland to London, so too will the reign of Elizabeth II

[Will Hutton @williamnhutton]

As the Tory party and its uncritical press give us Liz Truss as our Prime Minister, it’s worth saying 65 million others live on these Islands. We deserve a government that tries to govern in all our interests - not just appeasing the right wing Brexiter echo chamber.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

Brilliant piece of Comms here. So much for taking back control ….

[Nigel Legg @nigell]

@PennyMordaunt I think it would read better if it was “less about the Captain and more about the ship”, but maybe the p in the last word is a typo?

@NWJK @RhonddaBryant Suggest you see Liam post on this thread about the legislation around campaigning and COVID. I’ll save you the trouble. It was within the rules.

[Nigel Legg @nigell]

@FullyChargedShw It’s also beautifully done
