@campbellclaret I’d go with very thick, opportunistic and devoid of integrity.

@campbellclaret @WayneRooney As has Joe Hart

@matthewsyed Oodles of proof for your thesis in the replies. Doesn’t bode well for the next incumbent of the office.

It’s that time of year - folks asking us about #bumblebees - WHY THEY’RE SEEING THEM ON THE GROUND - so here’s a thread to explain.

Every queen that survives means a new colony that gets to exist & produce queen #bees for next year!
So important to #share!

I'm writing a book about @Nigel_Farage for @headlinepg.

Funnily enough, some of his old associates are blanking me.

Is it because after I reported on the killing of a Polish man in Essex in 2016, he said that I had caused him "more misery than any other in 25 years in politics"?

So I'm asking the Great British public to lend me a hand because NF is seeking to be our lord and master.

Were you at school with NF? Worked with him in the City when he was a tin trader? Met him through politics?

Did you drive the pink Cadillac hired by Nathan Gill who last year got ten years for taking bribes from a Russian spy?

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

Statement from the Nobel Foundation

One of the core missions of the Nobel Foundation is to safeguard the dignity of the Nobel Prizes and their administration. The Foundation upholds Alfred Nobel’s will and its stipulations. It states that the prizes shall be awarded to those who "have conferred the greatest benefit to humankind," and it specifies who has the right to award each respective prize. A prize can therefore not, even symbolically, be passed on or further distributed.

For additional information, please refer to the Norwegian Nobel Committee: https://t.co/HqL1ZR8Bos

@OliverKamm How long did you expect to wait before being able to write that?

@highbrow_nobrow If you did your own research, I’m willing to bet you couldn’t come up with the rules of basic arithmetic or algebra, let alone anything more advanced.

@DAaronovitch Makes Gove’s comments look positively expert!

[Jasbir Mann @TheJasMann]

@nnanook9 @JohnCleese Protein folding is a great step and will lead to significant advances. I’d argue it’s a different category problem than wave-particle duality and other quantum issues. Namely, it was a solvable problem requiring lots of compute (known known) as opposed new frontier knowledge.

@RestIsPolitics @ZackPolanski @RoryStewartUK @campbellclaret Not knowing basic financials of the economy disqualifies anyone from high office.

Anyone selling “we’ll change the economic system” without having a fully thought through transition plan lacks credibility.
PS - it won’t / can’t work.

@BBCNewsnight Please explain the rationale for inviting someone like S Gorka onto the show? Utterly uninformative and pointless.
At least the likes of Sergei Lavrov or Markov can be amusing in their answers, Gorka is almost always ill-mannered.

[No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen @NoLieWithBTC]

Macron just grabbed Trump’s arm and fact-checked him to his face in real time.

More of this please.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

Holy shit. Donald Trump’s approval ratings are a dumpster fire.

@lewis_goodall @Iromg @TheNewsAgents @jonsopel @maitlis Well said. Is Mike the guy who “grows concrete”?

[Jasbir Mann @TheJasMann]

@johnredwood You’re intelligent enough to know the two are not equivalent, nor comparable. But hey, why let principles interfere with making a cheap political point.
Disappointing to see such behaviour.

[Jasbir Mann @TheJasMann]

@RoryStewartUK The bile flowing from your simple, and self-evidently true observation, shows the sewer that has been unleashed on this platform.

[Jasbir Mann @TheJasMann]

@RoryStewartUK Of course you’re right, but in an age of “nation first” (not just in 🇺🇸) loss of compassion is the price to be paid
