Hot tip: If you have collected enough Subway points for a freebie, they will expire at 5pm on Tuesday 14 May when they switch over to a new rewards system.

Seems a shame to waste it if you have a reward pending.

(Order at the till not the touchscreen. 5 mins I won't get back.)

Very dangerous.

Leaves the goal wide open for the Tories to now accidentally 'find' proof in a dusty overlooked cardboard box.

Shouldn't have taken the bait.

If you search Google for 'robert buckland' 'natalie elphicke', all you get is the news stories from the last few hours.

But switch to Desktop view and specify a date cutoff, and a tonne of other results appear.

(This technique works on any search to get past the memory hole.)

This is a genuine Leave campaign video from the 2016 referendum.

Notice how absolutely none of the claims it makes have since come true?

In fact, they provide a useful shopping list of all the things that have been made worse by Brexit.

The Daily Mail misidentified this symbol as a 'St David's star' in its coverage of Eurovision this evening.

Embarrassing, to put it mildly...

Bet you didn't have Suella Braverman down as the person who would call for the abolition of the two-child benefit cap because it's cruel and arbitrary?

Took me by surprise, especially given that she once occupied the perfect office to do something about it.

But she's right now.

Anyone who's changed their mind on Brexit is a potential ally when it comes to rejoining.

There is zero value in trying to hold their 2016 vote against them in any way.

Instead, listen quietly to why they've changed their mind, and add that argument to your persuasion arsenal.

This lurid headline is about something Natalie Elphicke did while sitting on the Tory benches.

So it's embarrassing for Labour... but it's sure as anything embarrassing for the Tories too.

This plaintive thread suddenly made me realise how much I miss the good old days of the internet.

If you lived through them, you'll know what I mean already of course. It may be vastly larger now, but the internet is a pale shadow of its former self.

All of the bad behaviour Tories now seem eager to pin on Natalie Elphicke occurred while she was still a Tory MP.

Not sure openly inviting a Streisand Effect is the winning move they think it is.

REALLY worth retweeting and saving for when braindeads ask you what the EU has ever done for us! The most important item isn’t even on the list - peace! You don’t fight countries you want to sell to!

The only country to get 0 points in the pan-European popular vote at Eurovision happens to be the country desperately pretending not to be European. 🇬🇧

Of course, correlation is not causation. But causation certainly is.

You'll have to make up your own mind which applies here.
