@AllisonPearson As usual, Allison fails abysmally at any form of journalism.
Sir Kier Starmer was not the Director of the CPS when Connolly was committed for trial.
To say that he got Lucy Connolly jailed is completely untrue.
She pleaded guilty and effectively jailed herself.

@LeeAndersonMP_ Maybe he should stand in a field again and "address the nation" with his response.

[Simon Ritter @speakjava]

@frankgreco Alternatively, could someone please distill it into 280 characters?

[Simon Ritter @speakjava]

@LeeAndersonMP_ Ah, yes, the well-reasoned response of Reform.

@24Flogrown @ScooterCasterNY Posting an answer from Grok is not the win you think it is.

[Simon Ritter @speakjava]

@24Flogrown @ScooterCasterNY Ah, the classic, “trust me, bro” substantiation.

@UkandNireland What's truly mind-boggling is how Sadiq Khan finds time to be the Mayor of London *and* run an ice cream van.
🤡

@24Flogrown @ScooterCasterNY Joe Lowry Jr, who's probably in his Mum's basement, has irrefutable proof these protestors are being paid by some deep state actors.
Maybe he'd like to share it with us.
Probably not.

@CthulhulLovesU @ReformedMedia_ Because there are 90 miles of coastline (currently used by people smugglers) for them to "patrol".
Just think how many people it would take to provide 24x7 coverage of that.
Even if they did, the smugglers would adapt.
But sure, don't let facts get in the way of your fantasy.

@TailosiveEV It also still has the idiotic Ferrari steering wheel buttons for the indicators. A stalk is literally the most ergonomic solution to the problem. Changing it does not make if better.

@st4lky @GigaSomerset @SarahForRuncorn Thank you for saying exactly what I was thinking.

@johnbaker1214 @AlArabiya_Eng What, like there’s no such thing as the Gulf of America?

[Simon Ritter @speakjava]

@IAmBritishReal Pure clickbait.

@55Massey @DPJHodges 🚨BREAKING: Reform supporter thinks Andy Burnham screwed up.
Never would have guessed that, eh?
🤦‍♂️

Great job @uber!
Arrived at Heathrow Terminal 4 and none of your instructions for pickup are correct. App is wrong, website is wrong.
Amazed if you get any business from here.

@ukJ0N We. Left. The. EU.
That was literally all we voted on.
You can fantasise all you like about what Brexit means to you, but...
You won. Now get over it.

[Simon Ritter @speakjava]

@WinstonsButler @DPJHodges Not exactly a new concept.
The Tories changed leader more than once without seeking a fresh mandate from the electorate.

@KarenBowenCart1 @Artemisfornow Really? That's the best you've got?
Just remember, profanity is the sign of a weak mind trying to express itself forcefully.

@Monica55dzrh Just wondering, was the server also AI-generated?
That bill sure as heck is not from a real restaurant.
An Old Fashioned for $38 and a coffee for $15, yet the steaks were only $50?
🤦‍♂️

[Simon Ritter @speakjava]

@feldonthecat @PeteHegseth @ROCKCRAWLN @POTUS Now tell us how you really feel.
