Brace, brace for the first #TheWeekInTory of 2024.

Also, please read the tweet at the end, which my publisher insists I add, and which helps to pay for my dog to eat things (other than rotting pigeons he finds on the field). Ta

Conversation with my son tonight.
J: I was really good at maths today, I was working with money and my brain was like a calculator, I got them all right!
He should be, he spends enough of my money 🙄

Huge congratulations to my sister, appointed silk today. All very proud, celebrations tomorrow 🥂🥂

In this country, in online pharmacies and in drugstores, you can now buy tests that will tell you whether your respiratory illness is RSV, the flu, or Covid.

You think it makes no difference? Think again.

I know it's very fashionable amongst certain, usually very privileged, commentators to sneer at Good Law Project. But whilst they sneer from the sidelines, here is some of the work we have done this year. THREAD

You don’t like it. I don’t like it. Nobody likes it, and I wish it would stop. But dream on because here, for Christ’s sake, is #TheWeekInTory

Humiliating portion of Johnson in front of the #CovidInquiry . Asked whether 'let the virus rip' was a phrase he used, he denies it.

He is then taken excruciatingly through document after document showing the reverse, while he mutters 'no, no, no, that's rubbish'. ~AA

The last 30 minutes of today's #CovidInquiry is the legal equivalent of a fight in a pub car park.
The language may indicate otherwise but Hugo Keith has just knocked eight bells of shit out of Boris Johnson.

Boris Johnson shown note from his private secretary recording him on 19 March 2020 saying:

'Why are we destroying everything for people who will die anyway soon? Bed blockers.'

His response: 'It wasn't designed to be publicly broadcast.'

#CovidInquiry

Covid Inquiry Chair Baroness Hallett slams Boris Johnson for leaking information on his evidence before his hearing.

She said 'failing to respect confidentiality undermines the Inquiry's ability to do its job fairly, effectively and independently.'

#CovidInquiry

'Mr. Gove, I ask the questions here.'

Michael Gove gets wrangled by Hugo Keith at the Covid Inquiry for avoiding questions.

Matt Hancock gets a full day and a half at #CovidInquiry next week for those who can stomach it:

She is a psychopath.

Sunak supped with the devil & signed in blood - did he REALLY think he would win out in this madness?

Braverman is the distilled blood of the NF & the EDL - the very worst of Britain.

We knew it existed, but I did not think he was this stupid.

You can fight occupation and also stand up for the lives & dignity of both Israelis & Palestinians, both Jews & non-Jews. In fact, this is the only way forward. Nobody in that piece of land is going anywhere. Including Israelis, most of whom have nowhere else to go. 16/21

#TheWeekInTory is back, damn you

1. Britain faces a crisis in health, education, farming, energy, housing, childcare, social care, imports, exports, manufacturing, services, debt, growth and infrastructure, so Rishi Sunak announced his grand plan to slightly alter A-Levels
