@JaChallinor @TomScott1 This is the crime for me. The EFL is on borrowed time surely now. Especially with Derby in their sights as well...

[Luke Skirrow @skirrow11]

@JaChallinor In fairness I think the report was published earlier today https://t.co/fD89kYFB1S

@ryanmorton17 I think the right thing to do is judge it from the actions following this crisis, rather than petty politicking from 3 years ago.

[Luke Skirrow @skirrow11]

@ryanmorton17 British politics is v polarised ofc. But media doesn’t help that by not asking constructive questions. The pay rise thing is not strictly true. It wasn’t a vote on it directly but instead on the Queen’s speech - the motion was designed to fail based on our political system

[Luke Skirrow @skirrow11]

@ryanmorton17 The bias point is interesting, you’re considering the mainstream media to be bias towards the right. Social media is bias towards the left (mainly because they’re better at it). I actually think the media on the whole has been awful during this on the left and right.

[Luke Skirrow @skirrow11]

@ryanmorton17 But I think there is something to be said for we really don’t know what they are yet. There will no doubt be an inquiry into this and that is the time to ask those questions, not look for a “gotcha” moment in an interview now.

[Luke Skirrow @skirrow11]

@ryanmorton17 As for the media distraction point, if you honestly think that the media in the UK is akin to China and Russia as you suggested before I’ve got a bridge to sell you.

[Luke Skirrow @skirrow11]

@ryanmorton17 There is though because you’re making it a matter of left vs right. This isn’t that right now. I also don’t see how you can make the coronavirus about inequality, people everywhere are losing a lot of money over this - with notable exceptions granted (Amazon) for example

Me and the boys have been talking @GaryLineker - how about, Top 10 one season wonders for the next pod? @LiamSheppard95 @SheppardFTW Cc. @IanWright0 @alanshearer 🙋🏼‍♂️

@finnbartonn @lucy_bennett_ You realise how debt works, right?

[Luke Skirrow @skirrow11]

@JaChallinor But it was wrong nonetheless and regardless of precedent it does not make the current position any less ridiculous or problematic. To negotiate a new deal and then potentially oppose that in a 2nd ref. - just absurd given he’s meant to be a leader of conviction...

[Luke Skirrow @skirrow11]

This is a lie, quite literally factually incorrect. I know this is the world we live in now but the whole thing is getting embarrassing. #VoteConservative2019

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Well said.

[Luke Skirrow @skirrow11]

@ryanmorton17 C’mon, think about it. If Boris didn’t have a ‘view’ on any other subject in this election what would that say about him according to you? He didn’t bottle it, he negotiated a deal which technically passed - the option of a no deal was made illegal by the Benn Bill.

[Luke Skirrow @skirrow11]

@ryanmorton17 MPs failed because they did not vote in line with the constituencies who elected them - you can’t think that’s democracy?

[Luke Skirrow @skirrow11]

@ryanmorton17 Another point, which has gone under reported, is that a lot of Labour’s policies of nationalisation are not compatible with EU membership due to their rules around competition. I get the idealism but policies are economically impossible - see the IFS analysis.
