Are you for real @EstherMcVey1 ‘One of the continents abroad’. Leadership?! #LBC #interview #knowledge

[LBC @LBC]

Esther McVey told LBC that foreign aid has been mis-spent, including on an airport where the runway was built in the wrong direction facing the wind.

Iain Dale: "Where has that happened?"

McVey: "It's in... one of the continents... abroad."

Rather over the top comments here from #SarahVine - pathological an extreme term. Sexist too or a way of saying that her husband is incapable?! #dishwashergate

[Jeremy Vine & Daytime on 5 @JeremyVineOn5]

Are you being driven up the wall by the way your partner loads the dishwasher? The Daily Mail's Sarah Vine, who's married to Michael Gove, says men have a "pathological inability" to use them. Do you agree with her?! #jeremyvine

Ash Sarkar wrote an alternative guide to the Tory leadership hopefuls - and it's hilarious https://t.co/tnEFjnqLR0

Theresa May has made a statement on the next steps for #Brexit

She will ask for a short extension to Article 50 - and will sit down with Jeremy Corbyn to decide a new plan.

Really cannot believe this to be the case. More amazed that #ITVNews are publishing such an article which could influence some people to start stockpiling. Unhelpful reporting here #stockpiling #journalism #March29 #panicbuying

[ITV News @itvnews]

One in five Britons are planning on buying extra supplies in case of a no-deal Brexit. ITV News has met some of the people stockpiling ahead of March 29.

Someone was having a laugh with this one. When parties join! #DUP #STD #StrengthToDeliver

[DUP @duponline]

“Our slogan for the election will be three words which sum up the Party and our team.

It will be “Strength to Deliver.”

What an odious man #ChristopherChope is. Why on earth does he object to this? And why are his constituents voting for him? #FGM #parliament #bill
