Here are the brands run by Mitchells and Butlers - @eatdrinkmb - the firm which cut down the Enfield Oak. If you're joining the boycott of @tobycarvery, don't forget to also boycott @allbarone, @MillerandCarter, @HarvesterUK, and all their other brands. https://t.co/8lpRxjYpQ8

@thetimes clue for 57 across is missing in today's paper

[Tim Bennett @timothybennett]

Clue for 57 across in today's Times Jumbo crossword is missing. At least in the printed edition I have. By process of elimination, I think perhaps it should be....57 across: a musical note having the time value of half a whole note

Interesting situation - if the probability remains this high then we will have to make a decision on preparing a deflection mission - which would be a good investment even if (as is most likely) we don’t need to use it this time. It’s as if the Universe has decided to do an experiment to see if Planet Earth is still capable of taking rational decisions!

This country does not have, and has never had, an official language, and this is a good thing. It’s no more the function of government to prescribe language use than it is to prescribe religious observance. And if you imagine the English language is under threat, you’re deluded.

I read Google's paper about their quantum computer so you don't have to.

They claim to have ran a quantum computation in 5 minutes that would take a normal computer 10^25 years.

But what was that computation? Does it live up to the hype?

I will break it down.🧵

1. Here are my thoughts on the pros and cons of staying on this platform.
Pro: We were here long before Musk took it over. We built this.
Con: He has used our creation to help elect a far-right autocrat, and build his own grim political career.

Women are going to protect the country from Donald Trump, whether he likes it or not.

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

Republicans are now saying Trump “didn’t say what he said about shooting Liz Cheney” when he said what he said about shooting Liz Cheney.

The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

“Simply do not break a glass, and it will last a thousand years. Smash it, and it will not last an instant. Democracy is like that: fragile, but only if you shatter it.”

Twitter, I’m losing followers hand over fist. Still just about hanging on in here - please help me find my old followers - if they’re still here - if you can, by RTing.

Someone - and I wish I could remember who - once said that it’s much easier to trick a person than to persuade them that they’ve been tricked.

@archer_rs I have often had a similar thought, but for me it is what if David rather than Ed Milliband had been leader.

We’d like to announce that while we are not a hotel, we are a concept of a hotel.
