What an absolute shit show. I’m embarrassed by the marshalling of my home Grand Prix. The winner of the British GP… “the safety car” #BritishGP

#LondonFireworks The London fireworks were lovely, but that tacky mess that was superimposed upon the London Eye for the viewers at home was utterly appalling. Whoever thought that was a good idea should be utterly ashamed of themselves. #LondonFireworks

@BBCNews thanks for spoiling the #F1 results tonight in the BBC weekend news, just over an hour ahead of the highlights shows with no warning. Really appreciate that…

#horner #redbull Something about Horner that did not sit right with me. Didn’t like him at all…

[Alan Skipp @Ratseem]

That’s it, enough is enough, switching it off… #BGTFinal

@UKLabour Illegal immigration swept under the carpet, uncontrolled house building paving over our green lungs, totally no improvements to the NHS, police ineffective and chasing hurty-words on social media, not a chance - we need change, not the same as before in red rather than blue.

@althingsitv The Twins from The Shining, which incidentally was filmed in the same studio as where they are tonight…

#AustinGP So #Russell gets a penalty but crybaby #Verstappen not only avoids a penalty but gets #Norris a penalty instead. What is it with F1 stewards constant caving into #RedBull

[Alan Skipp @Ratseem]

Fuming about the misleading @aeg_gb 2 year FOC guarantee extension. You have to phone to register, and they ask about other appliances, adding them to the registration. I then realised this was all about harvesting my details to sell me breakdown insurance.

#ENGSPN England lost for two reasons, #1 we gave Spain far too much time on the ball and #2 the referee was very hard on England and let Spain get away with so much. We could have won if we pressured Spain or had a fair ref…

[Alan Skipp @Ratseem]

#EURO2024 Oh how embarrassing being English and watching such an incompetent English referee ruining the Germany, Denmark game - what a total prat!

[Alan Skipp @Ratseem]

The only one to speak any sense tonight was Nigel Farage. But he speaks an inconvenient truth - so gets called a racist. #BBCDebate The rest were bickering useless idiots…

[Alan Skipp @Ratseem]

Oh dear. Rishi Sunak has just thrown away the Tories chances of challenging for the election by proposing national service. Despite breaking the UK, his chances were evens against “mad” Kier Starmer, but now, he’s holding open the door for Labour.

[Alan Skipp @Ratseem]

Oh my goodness Londoners, what have you done? Please don’t go moaning about the costs of ULEZ any more, because if you are stupid enough to elect Khan, you are stupid enough to burn your own money… #LondonMayoralElection

[Alan Skipp @Ratseem]

OMG, someone needs to get a grip on these pathetic human beings who are trying to stop a coach taking illegal migrants to Bobby Stockholm. Migrants usually come via many safe countries to get here, where they do so to sponge of our benefits - the police should lock these thugs up

[Alan Skipp @Ratseem]

#bbcqt OMG, why do these idiotic politicians keep saying asylum seekers are fleeing an unsafe country - they are coming from France, and where from before that? likely another safe country. Truth is they know we have handouts and soft do-gooders and abuse that.

[Alan Skipp @Ratseem]

#bbcqt OMG, another “clappy” audience…

[Alan Skipp @Ratseem]

@BBCLondonNews Does his son use him to sit on?

[Alan Skipp @Ratseem]

@Ian_Fraser I believe that you cannot simply hand it back. You have it until it is taken away

[Alan Skipp @Ratseem]

Is it me or does tonight’s #bbcqt audience just clap at everything?
