It's like Tory ministers have cruelty competitions.
Today's contender: Robert Jenrick, who ordered cartoon murals to be painted over in a welcoming centre for child immigrants because "it was too welcoming"
Never vote for these fucking monsters.
I love how Tory ministers keep insisting that "nothing untoward happened" because they're totally fine with being unethical.
They really don't think they do anything wrong.
Annoyed that today is a Bank Holiday and I can't get the next two volumes of #Heartstopper β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈπΆβ€οΈ from @winstonebooks (the indie bookshop here).
I could go to a chain, but I'm not going to. Even though they have them. And I want books 3&4 sooo badly. π
As Boris Johnson tells MPs it was absolutely "essential" for him to hold repeated drinks events and leaving parties during lockdown, here's a reminder of what he wrote to a seven-year-old girl about cancelling her own birthday party during that time.
We didn't have parties to "boost morale"
We didn't have quiz nights
We didn't have champagne
We watched our colleagues die though
We were STEEPED in death
We kept going
We had to
We kept on
So don't you DARE say your parties were "necessary" @borisjohnson
You make me sick.
@PaulaSimone I need to find a way to cross the Atlantic in comfort without using fossil fuels. ("In comfort" necessitated by Greta Thunberg's excellent but I'm-not-doing-that example. I'm too old and disabled!)
