@clastee I can offer a 1 year old for a cuddle, if that’s any help? Reasonable rates. Usually on a Wednesday.

(Take it easy on yourself. You’re doing an amazing job of being you)

[Tom Abba @tomabba]

One of the first things I'm asked when I put a piece of work out is 'what is it then?'

So I wrote a (short) book to answer that. If you'd like a digital copy, it's free. iBooks only, as Kindle doesn't permit fixed-layout eBooks anymore..

I’m mostly off this place and elsewhere, but if you’re still out there, then this is your midwinter read. Thanks Simon.

[Tom Abba @tomabba]

@joethephish Oh god. I remember that review…

[Rt Hon Chris Skidmore @CSkidmoreUK]

International students are not migrants. They aren’t planning on settling in the U.K., the vast majority return home after their studies. They also contribute nearly £42 billion per annum to the U.K. economy.

Take them out of the migration statistics, they don’t belong there.

[Tom Abba @tomabba]

Have five here. DMs open.

I'm all out of codes now, but I promise I'll post some more when I get them...
