@charlotteukcity @PoliticsForAlI @thetimes No. These words are used to convey emotion. If we didn’t use them, we’d have no way of expressing how much emotion we feel. If you’re feeling offended by them, then perhaps you need to expand your understanding of the situation and how people feel about it.

@Shackviral @ParisDaguerre Wrong. ⚠️ Corona is affecting 0.7% population as of today (30/12/2020) ⚠️ 3% of the population have tested positive since March ⚠️ These figures are likely to be higher due to people failing to be tested. ⚠️ Deniers, anti-vax and anti-maskers are more likely to spread it.

Govt to nationalise rail passenger services. Highly profitable freight, rolling stock companies (ROSCOs) to remain private. Why? ROSCOs based in Luxembourg, funded from public purse, profit margin 41.6%, paid £2.7bn dividend, no UK tax on that. Minister didn't answer questions
