Sea lions are faster than humans on both land and sea, so if you face one in a triathlon, you really need to make up time on the cycling.

@pjryan51 Like,say, Kosovo? Or perhaps Iran?

Once more into the breach on UK bond market movements given today's spike in 30Y Gilt yields to >5.2%. Some thoughts on what this is telling us about the economy - at home & internationally (1/n)

@tfievans @steviemarshall @theJeremyVine It's better to be stupid and remain silent, than to open your mouth and confirm it.

@reggieascott @cyclegaz Inverse proportionality. It would suit you...

@PudseyPedaller @climbtechy @cyclegaz It's a pavement. It's higher than the road...

Regardless of whether the hood is 5ft or 5ft 6" off the ground, the point made remain relevant.

@RBashal @SoDonneII @cyclegaz Ok, license them as hgv's then...

@PoliticsSense @lara_e_brown You do know there are provisions in the legislation to allow for innovation and future change?...

@lara_e_brown @AidanTodd33618 It is only one element of the buying decision. And it is bloody annoying to have multiple cable and therefore remove charging interoperability. It doesn't prevent the standard changing and being upgraded in the future but will be done so across the industry(ies) concerned.

@afneil Isn't it simply that he has one core message to all of the civil service. Policies and spending must have an economic growth focus. This is just another route for that message. Of course, whether it works is another question...

Another SNP success story.

@ItsJustaRide @GarethDavies007 @Eloise98496253 Do some simple maths, then stop worrying. And perhaps consider if all you read here is actually true...

Maybe it’s just me, but Republicans having two daddies seems kind of woke,

@Asheboy @john_actuary They didn't plan with much "precision" if they failed to check what their state pension age actually was!

[John Rentoul @JohnRentoul]

Liz Kendall as good as her word: she worked with them and identified a fair solution, which is not to hand out vast sums of public money

@Don_MacKenzie__ Espace Killy (Tignes, Val d'isere) is good too, especially for experienced skiers. Paradiski (Les Arc/La plagne) is a great mix of terrain. The best ski area I've had the privilege of skiing is La Grave...but it is a single area and none is
pisted, so doesn't suit all!

@nonwokefemale @OliverKamm You might need to read the specifics of the maladministration decision then...

[𝔾𝕣𝕒𝕖𝕞𝕖 @talkstough]

@JanetYatak2711 @OliverKamm That's simply not true.

[Oliver Kamm @OliverKamm]

@JanetYatak2711 It found a specific case of maladministration in communicating changes to state pension age. Some limited cases of hardship merit compensation. The finding has no implication for the wider & worthless WASPI claim that women born in the 1950s have suffered injustice. You haven’t.

@WASPI_Campaign @leicesterliz Delivered in full. You've received a "fair solution". The end.

[𝔾𝕣𝕒𝕖𝕞𝕖 @talkstough]

@stewartcdickson @WASPI_Campaign @leicesterliz It's over. Rightly.
