I did NOT know that.

So I read with enjoyment that a senior Daily Mail executive has been over heard describing Boris Johnson’s column as, "a bloody expensive disaster that nobody reads"

Rishi Sunak has claimed that voters are fine with him spending £50,000 a day on this ridiculously large private jet. If you aren’t fine, RT and tell him to spend his own £720,000,000. Where is his pay restraint? Also like if you want him to f** off.

Of the 30 hottest days ever recorded, no fewer than 21 have occurred THIS MONTH. Temperatures in July 2023 could well be the highest for 120,000 years. This story is the lead on the BBC website, 7th on The Times, 69th on The Daily Mail, & hasn’t yet been mentioned by The Sun.

The Met show that they will chase and arrest someone for a £3 bus ticket that they have actually paid. But Mone who owed £232,000,000 walked straight out of The House of Lords where she had just quit, got in a taxi and then on a plane. Because she had the right friends.

We humans are destroying the part of our beautiful, precious, possibly unique planet that supports us and all other life. How can we be so stupid?

THIS IS FUCKING UNBELIEVABLY BAD KWASI KWARTENG WAS WARNED!!!! Kwarteng went ahead with mini-budget despite OBR warning, FOI reveals

How many fires need to burn, how many lives destroyed before we wake up?

Rishi Sunak has quietly slipped out new rules raising the amount individuals can secretly donate to political parties by 50%. Party campaign spending limits have also been raised. Meanwhile the cap on trade union spending during elections has been frozen. https://t.co/fOBBPeBzHV

I wonder if we’ll still be discussing Nigel’s bank account when we’ve all burnt to death. Certainly feels like it. Unbelievable.

Funny that the government is happy to pile the pressure on a bank to fire its CEO and board but water companies are free to keep caking the population in human excrement with no consequences wherever.

Boris Johnson was a terrible Prime Minister. Liz Truss was a terrible Prime Minister. Rishi Sunak is a terrible Prime Minister.

I don't join @JustStop_Oil protests as I don't want to get arrested again - it was horrible - but I can say 'just stop oil' in the House of Lords. Stopping using #FossilFuels is the single most crucial action for us.

Urgent hunt for Missing Anne 85, known locally as Nancy or Nance continues. Police say missing 85-year-old woman was seen on CCTV near school as urgent hunt continues in Cowbridge, South Wales. CCTV shows the 85 year old walking past a local school, according to South Wales

Usually, I try and maintain some sense of respect for the office of the Prime Minister, but it’s just impossible when the man doing the job is willing to demean it like this. What a desperate attempt to deflect from his own dismal failures. Utterly pathetic.

@sandcam55 @CounsellingSam People know that not paying a fare is a non-custodial offence. People know that the woman had paid. People can see the woman being gripped then handcuffed. This in itself is a punishment for an offence she hadn't committed.

To the lady who told me to ‘wash my mouth out’ when I told her I had a same-sex partner… …may God bless you with grace and understanding for those for whom love is wild and beautiful and gentle and free. 🌈
