@LaineyAULane@AngelaORegan7@ikeijeh@RightToLifeUK It's part of our uncodified constitution. The King technically possesses the legal power of royal assent; the parliament has never removed it. However, a convention has developed over centuries that the monarch must assent to any bill that's passed both houses.
@AndyStapley4@LoftusSteve Mr Eccles (who apparently really exists, a fact I am trying to come to terms with) has used sources which have different definitions of “welfare”. Not the first time he tries this form of deception.

@Heccles94 FYI, this is an obviously misleading chart which has already been debunked many times. Among other things, the Eurostat and UK DWP series are defined differently.

@trussliz Can you explain why, as the PM, you stopped Human Rights Act being repealed and replaced by "Bill of Rights"?
It was even in your party's election manifesto!
@elonmusk One of the very first things Truss did when she became the PM was to kill Dominic Raab's "Bill of Rights", which was meant to replace HRA 1998 and reduce the influence of ECHR in UK law. It's hard to understand what she's going on about now. 🤷♂️
@BBCCambs This is far from the “David vs Goliath” the business owner is trying to make. The University isn’t stopping him trading. He is trying to register “Cambridge Rowing” as a trademark, meaning he wants exclusive rights to the name. That’s what’s being opposed.

@ElizAthertonSop@Peston Maybe Starmer can say some internationally lawful and virtuous words so that Putin and Xi will see the righteous path again? After all, they totally aren’t intimidated by military might and nukes, they just had an unwavering respect for the international law. 🤷♂️
@DailyMail “The main guy - I'm not sure which one it was - kept insisting I go to the bathroom.
Eventually I agreed to go just for 30 seconds and naively I left them there”.
What? I vaguely remember mum insisting I go to the bathroom before travelling, when I was little, but that’s it…
@RufusSG "Net migration" is a terrible proxy for what people actually want.
Voters have been very clear: they want much less low-skilled immigration. Hiding behind a single "net" figure is what's dishonest.
@gadboit@DraperOr What is the point of the robot being in humanoid form? Why would it be limited to two hands? The Da Vinci robot, which is fully human-controlled, has four arms for example.
