My student is conducting research on a particular feature in Twitter. Could you do a very short survey for her, less than 5 minutes?

Superb thread from Patrick Kielty about the damage BREXIT and Boris Johnson's lies and cavalier attitude is going to do to Northern Ireland (and ultimately the UK).
20. Meantime, if you’re so concerned about keeping Northern Ireland totally aligned with the rest of the UK where’s your support for our same sex marriage and women’s right to choose? Your silence is deafening.

Yes, 52%/48% is hardly a massive "will of the people". Farage said that if Remain won by less than 60% the Leavers would keep fighting, so presumably he thinks 60/40 is the minimum needed for the "will of the people".

Did this start getting worse with Thatcher?.
A chart that is a national embarrassment for Britain. Just look at the huge difference in wealth per person between the poorest and richest regions compared to other countries.

I am very proud to be backing a private criminal prosecution against Boris Johnson for lying during the BREXIT referendum campaign about the amount of money the UK spends on being a member state of the EU (the £350 million for the NHS claim) ,

Fantastic! We need much more pushing back on his lies.
We’ve seen the @WhiteHouse video about the #ParisAccord. We disagree – so we’ve changed it. #MakeThePlanetGreatAgain.
