@Socialist_Crow Maybe get a cheaper car. Take less foreign holidays. Shop at Aldi. Buy less “stuff”. Just a thought

[Paul Carver @pacarver]

@iantheCROAT Yes. Percussionist to be exact.

@phillips_sznUTB First two goals were from poorly defended set pieces. The others from breaks when we were two goals down. Sitting in the north stand there seemed to be reluctance from our forwards to shoot when they had even half a chance in the second half.

@iantheCROAT No don’t. Put your mobiles away when you are a gig!

@caleblloyd98 @StevenageFC Took my oldest @CarverAndy for the first time at about the same age. With me again today and he’s now 30. And he drove down from Littleport as well!

Tim Farron, "The unpleasantness about this debate is only matched by the lack of proper information" #BBCQT

"85% of refugees settle in the country next to where they come from"

"The French take 3x more refugees than we do"

"The Germans take 4x more refugees than we do"

"If you put us back in the European Union, we are 19th in the league table when it comes to the number of refugees we take per capita"

"Do we need deterrents? Yes. The best deterrents is competence. If we assess people when they arrive - and they are not illegal immigrants - they are people seeking asylum.. From Sudan.. Afghanistan.. Iran.. Syria.. 90%+ turn out to be genuine refugees"

"If we have a competent government, and we haven't had one, let's see about this one.. And you assess them quickly.. And return the ones that are not refugees"

"That is your deterrent"

"Rwanda was a waste of money.. If they spent that money on case workers we could have processed these people, returned the ones that weren't refugees in a humane way, and let th eones who are genuine refugees, become British, pay their taxes, be part of our country, and we should be proud to admit them"

Very well said @timfarron 👏

Oil beetles are endangered, and part of this is due to eating dog poop. Dogs are given worming tablets, and these don’t just kill worms, they kill the oil beetles who eat it.

I saw 50 dead or dying beetles today.

Leaving dog poo behind isn’t just gross, it’s ecocide:

🚨To all brewers and distillers out there🚨

This man, who says his name is David O’Reilley (& claims to be my brother) is going around claiming he works for Loungers & has been requesting free samples & then suggesting he’s going to place large orders. He’s a fraudster.

Reform's 5 MPs gather for their first meeting.

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

RT if you think the Greens quadrupling their seats should have as much media attention as Reform!

[Electoral Commission @ElectoralCommUK]

You need to show an accepted form of photo ID to vote in person in the general election.

Don’t have ID?🤔
Apply for free voter ID.

📅 The deadline to apply is 5pm this Wednesday (26 June) if you live in England, Scotland or Wales and by midnight if you live in Northern Ireland.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

Brexit was won not just by those who voted but by those who didn’t. The Tories are now fighting a voter suppression campaign hoping that if millions don’t vote because they think everyone else will they can squeak back in. The polls mean nothing. It is all about voting on the day. Vote them out. Defeat their STOP THE VOTES strategy. Inflict the SUPERBEATING they deserve

[Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer]

Change will only happen if you vote for it.

Vote Labour on Thursday 4 July.

@RhonddaBryant I think he is cross……that they were found out
