@writteninoak I’d like to hear something from Farage about actual policies that help the working classes he claims to support. Instead he calls for hate.

@LeeAndersonMP_ The rules of PMQs, Lee.

@Nigel_Farage @Keir_Starmer Cut before the PM’s response about the plea of the murdered kid’s father.

Apparently people in the UK who have progressive/liberal tendencies don’t have alarm clocks. Presumably they have phones that they set to wake them up at the same time every morning?

[Sarah Pochin MP @SarahForRuncorn]

Reform UK is the party of alarm clock Britain. 🇬🇧

[Andy Sharp @sharp_writing2]

Arne Slot very classy in his piece in the Liverpool Echo.

Thanks for number twenty Arne ❤

@GearoidReidy Who knows what the future brings. But my spidey senses say this guy may have a position.

Nearly 10% growth for Taiwan projected this year. This chip/AI boom/bubble is incredible. https://t.co/ZCbToqcAAB
