@AngelaRayner @mhclg We wouldn't have a housing shortage if the government in 2003 hadn't kick started rampant population growth. It's all manufactured to drive up house prices and keep wages low. Look at the ONS figures for house prices and net population growth. There is a link between the two.

@mazdaukpr I'm so glad to see not everyone is giving up on diesels. These small turbo petrol engines that others are adopting don't seem too reliable.

@Pirat_Nation They're waiting for something else to distract the nation with. Oh look, over there, it's our scapegoat!

[Rik @rikaindow]

@mullvadnet Oh look this way, we're listening to you! But, while all the media focuses on that, they're up to something else.

[Rik @rikaindow]

@LucyTCWife What our government did to you was horrible but I guess it was a wake up call for what they are now trying to push on us all. More censorship and control. Thanks for keeping your spirits up in the face of adversity.

@Scott72Mark @orlaminihane @andyburnham @bedford_colleen When a small minority of the population commits a higher proportion of the crimes then clearly the small minority are a danger and some sort of intervention and support is needed.

@MichaelsPa925 @Common_SensePod @andyburnham @grok I fear it's too late in many places with these people getting into positions of power throughout all levels of government and not only that, things like Brexit made it worse.

@sabrinatranwtch @EmperorPrimal @TheJoeySwoll Nothing wrong with being a cat lady. :)

[Rik @rikaindow]

@hell_line0 I agree 100%

[Rik @rikaindow]

@sabrinatranwtch @TheJoeySwoll Ok but what about if a biological woman wants a child with a man they love using the DNA of that man? They can't do that if it's a female to male transsexual can they. People can date who they want to date and should not be made to feel judged for having preferences.

@Telegraph And once OFCOM and the government get their way and only "trusted" sources such as the BBC are promoted at the top of everyone's feeds above all else, sadly stories like this will be buried all too easily. Sick of this government, sick of seeing post 2003 UK, too.

@BeauNash1674 @BasilTheGreat The problem is nobody on the right is speaking up against it bar some smaller parties that with all the will in the world sadly won't get into power.

[Rik @rikaindow]

@andyburnham care to comment please?

@AVintenAuthor It's horrible to hear this BS goes on. The bouncers won't care as they won't want any negative attention bringing to their workplaces. Name and shame them all and maybe then they'll care but until then they'll probably just excuse it as "young drunk British kids"

[Rik @rikaindow]

Yet the government are trying to limit free speech and censor the internet. It's a bit hypocritical to leave somewhere that is more open than the others.

[Rik @rikaindow]

@GBPolitcs It's just a distraction from someone who led from the rear rather than the front, the coal face, if you will.

[Rik @rikaindow]

@iloatheyouall @EnglishBob714 @GBPolitcs If he doesn't, he's a conservative as Thatcher was not for turning either. Haha

[Rik @rikaindow]

@Silvobi @WumpusCentral As an English man, I agree 100%

[Rik @rikaindow]

@PhilipPetrunak @svishnevskiy @SXR123 Exactly.

[Rik @rikaindow]

@svishnevskiy @SXR123 And i hate my government for that BS. No doubt they'll say it's a massive positive but not to me. The more places you share your data, the greater the risk of theft, leaks, or fraud.
