@PaulGeronimo9 @piersmorgan @realDonaldTrump LOL.

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

@JoeyMannarino That is complete nonsense. Sharia law applies nowhere in London, and while it is not without problems, London's crime rate is lower than any US city.

@NormanBrennan @Keir_Starmer Yes, I can see, that is so so funny! Very very funny! Sidesplitting! You must be wonderfully witty, everyone who knows you knows that. Very very funny indeed!

@blaiklockBP The NHS would collapse, the economy would nose-dive, there would riots. Quite a lot to not like.

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

@jessgill03 What does that mean?

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

@pippaisright Rather more likely: the NHS would collapse; there would be riots in the streets; there would be major international conflict; countries would refuse to accept deportees; huge budget problems. Immigration needs to be addressed, but this way would be catastrophic.

@swyddog7 @_F_B_G_ I presume you are suggesting a move to the Syriac Church.

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

@MAKELUCAS @purgstallheath I bet you are great fun at a party.

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

@JamesEsses This is fake. There was no flag of any kind on the BBC news item.

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

@MarinaHyde The best - and possibly the only really good - take I have read on the adventures of Ms Sweeney.

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

@PatrickChristys No, I don’t remember that. Didn’t happen.

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

@CamillaTominey This is complete nonsense. O’Brien is not antisemitic.

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

@bo66ie29 I think they would just find 2025 jarring.

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

@visitnorthyork Only with an ambulance standing by.

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

@nickfshort I wonder what happened to him...

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

@elliehodges62 Why should she? Absolutely no reason.

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

@eyesareopen78 @maitlis I’d say very much with the will of the people.

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

A very happy St Patrick's Day to all my friends - Lá fhéile Pádraig sona daoibh.

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

@mccartney_jenny Alas, yes. My life to date has been a mixture of German, Irish and Scottish parts, and while in each of these I have seen crises, they now seem less cataclysmic than this right now!

[Ferdinand 🇺🇦 @vonprond]

@mccartney_jenny - I have just read your essay on Engelsberg ("...bro-world...") - totally brilliant analysis, so vital at this dangerous moment.
