This sums up Twitter/X much of the time. I’m happy to free myself from its grips this weekend - we’re off to see friends. 🙂

Donelan is incredibly lucky there are so many other catastrophes around her in government, because this is a major scandal and if the media had spent another few days pressuring her she would have been forced to pay back the money or resign. Now she should do both.

🚨🚨 Dear Jacob Rees-Mogg this 'unnecessary act of self-harm' is exactly what you as a leading Brexiter propagated for & voted for. These checks is an inescapable implication of the hard #Brexit advanced & negotiated by you & your chums (Johnson and Frost). Own it up. 👇👇

Could someone in the media cover this properly & make this a proper issue to discuss, rather than divisive culture wars which are cynically designed to distract from the many issues we can unite about.

TerfedUp Rachel Rooney I really hope so too. This cancel culture has to stop. We are each entitled to our opinions in a democracy, with free speech. Nuanced, respectful conversation HAS to be the way forward.

Prof Sir John Curtice explains why the Brexit voters that The Labour Party has “re-captured” since 2019…

…are not actually Brexit supporters anymore.

Labour’s voting base all over the country is now more pro-EU, whether Keir Starmer likes it or not.

If only the people stacking shelves on £11.44 an hour stacked twice as many shelves for their £11.44 an hour, they'd find it easier to afford their £1500 a month rent.

This is the direct result of the government changing the rules for mayoral elections so we have to use First Past the Post - less choice for voters

I work for a homelessness charity: Britain now has families in full time work living in tents, stop telling everyone you can’t do maths

As a “working class leftie,” I can tell Wes that lining the pockets of private health firms isn’t just ideologically flawed - it’s inefficient too. Many private staff are NHS moonlighters. Some even share facilities. Fund the NHS, not big business. theguardian.com/politics/2024/…

Mr Tom Harris is completely wrong here. I am ashamed at how our younger generations are being unfairly treated and then, to add insult to injury, insulted by such ignorance.

Controversial thought: Can we please have more books for kids that don’t normalise or encourage mocking and bullying?
