Welcome to the Siemens turbine factory in Hull, BRITAIN, Richard. Skilled BRITISH labour manufactures the largest handmade objects in the world there. Wind power alone directly provides 20,000 jobs in BRITAIN, against 26,000 for the whole of oil and gas. Have some shame man.

Hi @McDonaldsUK - Staines franchisee 👋 Any chance you could check your CCTV/BWC footage for this customer? In your branch 20:27 yesterday. Found your packaging (along with used vapes) strewn all over our local park this morning. Maybe ID them and ban them from your branches 🤔

A "hatred of the Lucys" 🤣 @AllisonPearson has coined us a collective noun for "ordinary, decent women". Does anyone else remember when Allison used to appear on Newsnight Review? Ageing like a fine wine she ain't.

With his treatment of Lucy Connolly Keir Starmer ignited the hatred of the Lucys. Ordinary, decent women will no longer put up with Marxist human rights lawyers dumping barbarians in communities where they threaten their children. Roll on Keir’s evisceration in 2029!

Spot on @Halcruttenden! It's chauvinism. Nothing signals tribal, parochial insecurity like wrapping yourself in the flag, or attempting to rally beneath a banner. Weak is the word.

Reminds me of certain areas in Northern Ireland. When people feel insecure about their identity, they need to do this. It’s a sign of weakness not strength.

Henley & Partners’ wealth migration reports have been reported all over the world, both to prove both that there's a massive exodus of wealth from the UK and that there isn't. Our forensic review finds the data riddled with anomalies - and in key places looks fabricated:

So let’s have a little look at the Right wing media feeding off its own ecosystem. Here’s @TiceRichard claiming NET ZERO caused the Heathrow shut down, while sharing a Telegraph article that appears to back up his claim Must be true then, right?? 🧐you know the drill… 🧵 1/

Far from 'transforming' education, the emergence of AI is underlining why human teachers matter. To put it crudely, kids respond to people not screens. Just watched my daughter interacting with an AI tutor. She lost interest after 15 mins. Incredible to think that her classroom

Just to be absolutely clear: hopefully it emerges from the full blog, but these are not things I have to do personally. That's because I work in a great school. But they are very real demands placed on teachers up and down the country, by leaders who need to learn to subtract.

Have a read of THIS 👇!!! But, but, but, as we read in the @Telegraph, we*must* remember that Sir Keir did accept gifts of free tickets to a Taylor Swift concert. So, they are all as bad as one another, really 🤔
