Notable that the Conservatives only use the word “millionaire” as an insult in the case of footballers or people in the creative industries. Otherwise they are forever keen to cast themselves as the party of aspiration and wealth-creation.

Reminder: in 2019 there was ONE conviction for in-person voter fraud in the entire UK (handed to a man who had voted twice in the European parliament elections). This is voter suppression.

This is so exactly how you’d imagine Gavin Williamson to talk when not public-facing. Beyond depressing that he was allowed to cock up education for so long, because Boris Johnson basically didn’t care. Knighted him for this level of “public service”, in fact.

Williamson told Morton it was “disgusting you are using her death to punish people…absolutely disgusting” - a claim for which he didn’t provide any evidence When she told him it wasn’t true, Williamson said: “perception becomes reality”

Just so unbelievably, tragically backwards that Tory MPs are congratulating themselves for moving against Matt Hancock on the I'm A Celebrity app. BIG FUCKING DEAL. Where were they when he was throwing "a protective ring" round care homes/ watching his mates get Covid contracts?

Amazed and amused at some of the people who’ve spent a lot of the past 24 hours being loftily optimistic about Rishi Sunak. Hopefully screenshots will be the currency of the new world he ushers in, because I’ve banked about five hundred of them

Crucial new fact from the thicket of Covid inquiry legal wrangling this evening. While Boris Johnson has passed lots of WhatsApps to the Cabinet Office, they only date from May 2021 onwards - when he got a new phone. None of the messages before then have been shared
