Left: Me and my goats in Afghanistan. Right: Me after my PhD from one of the UK's top universities. Conclusion: Farage is an ignorant coward who thrives on hate mongering and racial stereotypes.

Reform breaking records again - suspending a candidate less than 24 hours after they were announced.

I have taken this up myself as a FOI request.

@NJ_Timothy You must be dreading Hanukkah with those great big candles towering over everyone in Trafalgar Square. Have you prepared a statement?

(1/5) This afternoon all 5 opposition parties at Kent CC walked out of the Chamber in protest at ReformUKs gagging of democracy. Against advice and guidance of the Electoral Commission, independent Constitutional Barristers and the Council's own Monitoring Officer, ReformUK

Lucky or unlucky? Well done to the camera person who caught the impact so close.

If one group of politicians decide on a new whizz-bang tunnel and employ all the firms needed to plan and design it, and then another group of politicians come along and cancel said tunnel, who is at fault for all the money wasted?

My dear client. He sat beside me when I told his story to the Inquiry. I feel numb at his passing. He suffered so much and endured tremendous grief. He was stoical but marked by tragedy. Those malignants who put him through all this are beneath contempt.

Japanese PM Sanae Takaichi's reaction as Trump says "Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Habour?" Undoubtedly the worst American diplomatic gaffe in post-war US-Japan history.

Well that's the Muslim vote lost for the Tory Party, which group of British citizens should they alienate next?

2/2 the fact that two Independence class ships are sailing across the Pacific with this capability only makes sense if the US’s timing of the attack was forced and at short notice. Now who could have done that?

1/2 Tulsi Gabbard told Congress that the Intelligence on Iran was always that they could close the Straits of Hormuz. Which is presumably why there were no US mine countermeasures ships anywhere near the Persian Gulf when the US decided to attack?

Is it this one? https://t.co/bvF2ISCbRW and if it is, can you find out whether "a large targeted carriage study in adolescents with the endpoint being impact on carriage of relevant strains associated with invasive disease" has been instigated?

US Minesweeper capable Independence class Littoral Combat Ships, are on their way to the Persian Gulf?

This tweet of mine seems to have aged well?

Well done everyone involved in getting Glasgow Central partially reopened.

Get the delay repay system working, using people that can understand all the vagaries of the system and how people actually choose to use the railways and assign costs to the TOCs pro rata for delays.

5. Claiming against the first railway train operating company that caused the delay (about half an hour), even when the biggest delay (half a day) was caused later by another TOC.

4. Opting for GWR Automatic Delay Repay and still never receiving a notification that I have been delayed, even when a service has been cancelled and having to revert to manual means for compensation.
