@rizhusain I don’t know if you’ve ever listened to the eponymous but… seems about right. Also… see you over on bluesky or are you sticking here

[Stuart Mitchell @stuartmitch]

@WarrenWhyteUK judging the current government as communist based on a comment from a former adviser (who hasn’t been involved for over 14 years) is a hell of a leap… but sure

[Stuart Mitchell @stuartmitch]

@WarrenWhyteUK yes, it’s completely true that the MAGA GOP is indistinguishable from Reagan’s…

@saxoeel485 @jeremyiwhite @Conservatives do some research and find out how many farms last year applied for relief above the new threshold of £2m

@charlesarthur fabulous news for phishing sites!

@mrendell stick to cycling Matt…

I’M JOKING. Thanks for bringing that into my life and thanks for every contribution you have made to the ITV TdF team. We know you are going to make 2025 special, as always

[Stuart Mitchell @stuartmitch]

@rizhusain @JustGiving thank you brother

[Stuart Mitchell @stuartmitch]

@Halcruttenden I’m trying to get my head around the fact that most of those complaining about Tuchel being GERMAN are the same as those who complained Southgate was too WOKE. Tabloid upper-case for effect

@charlesarthur completely by accident I came across live forex in Notes… I don’t know if this is new in iOS 18 but I like it. You can drive the destination currency by simply listing the code

@rizhusain @HussainShafiei @georgegalloway I mean… they weren’t even Motorola-branded devices, but sure. I’ll take my chances on devices manufactured in the West vs the alternative thanks

@rizhusain @LBC @NickFerrariLBC @GlobalPlayer he’s box office… it’s sickening

@WarrenWhyteUK I think it’s fair to say that if the previous Government really cared about the Winter Fuel Allowance they might have triple-locked it too. As it is… https://t.co/jPf8s1cz8H

[Paul Johnson @PJTheEconomist]

Two facts re winter fuel allowance:

1) At £200 it's same in cash terms as in 2000 - a real terms cut of 45%. Slow drift into irrelevance.

2) Pensioners much better off than they were then - poverty rate down from 26% to 16%, median income up 38% (only up 19% for non-pensioners)

@INEOSGrenadiers @VelonCC nice commentary as ever from @nedboulting

[Stuart Mitchell @stuartmitch]

@MATatBucks still not resolved…

[Stuart Mitchell @stuartmitch]

@MATatBucks not really being very effective though… this pile encroaches on the road and has been untouched for 2 weeks now

[Stuart Mitchell @stuartmitch]

@WarrenWhyteUK it’d probably be like the social media pile on if the Deputy PM was seen dancing in a night club

[Stuart Mitchell @stuartmitch]

@WarrenWhyteUK @gregsmith_uk Plain nonsense as always from @GBNEWS #notmyMP

[Stuart Mitchell @stuartmitch]

@Paul__Walsh or there is always this approach… 😆

We once invented a 'Porn Injector' at work. It was a USB stick that you plugged into a computer that created a folder and copied hardcore smut onto the machine of someone you wanted to get sacked. Should have sold it as a product and made millions.
