I don’t understand the Met’s advice to challenge a plain-clothes officer if you don’t think they’re legit. People regularly get detained, beaten up and sometimes shot for challenges like that. And Couzens actually *was* a police officer; he proved it. That’s the whole problem

That they didn't have a plan for how they're going to deal with the issue within the police force itself ready to go right now, as soon as that verdict came in, six months after they knew what had happened, tells us everything we need to know about their attitude to this.

Fuck - and I simply cannot stress this enough - off.

We did wait. The delay led to "one of the worst ever public health failures". Don't let anyone talk about hindsight. There was foresight from everyone apart from the politicians.

It's not about hindsight at all. It's about judgement and a capacity for reason. They got it wrong. Then they failed to listen to critical voices. And they therefore got it wrong again. Their arrogance led to the greatest public health calamity of our lifetime.

When you go to the chippy and they offer you salt and vinegar imho it would be more fun if they said 'salt and malt'? It's better, no? Americans would have been doing this years ago but they fucked up the definition of chips so they're out of the game but it's not too late for us

When you’re sitting next to 95-year-old Sir David Attenborough and you *still* can’t be arsed to wear a mask. Or even stay awake. #COP26

293 Covid deaths today. Or one fifth of the total no. of road traffic fatalities in an entire *year*. Yet we have seat belts, speed limits, drink driving laws etc. I want to know why UK Prime Minister seemingly doesn’t give a damn about Covid deaths. RT if you do too.

So Boris Johnson was willing to take money from your schools, your hospitals and your high streets to cover up Tory corruption.

If you wander round a hospital like this during a pandemic - a hospital like the one that SAVED YOUR FUCKING LIFE 19 months ago - then you have nothing but my absolute fucking contempt.

So people can have Christmas parties and carry on going to the office but I have to be in ££££ hotel quarantine despite being fully vaxxed and having negative PCR tests before, during and after my trip. This is so blatantly abt making money rather than containing the variant.

I knew this was coming from the moment Shamima Begum was stripped of her British citizenship despite the fact that she is UK born & doesn't have dual nationality with Bangladesh. Citizenship should be an absolute and not conditional. Are us people of colour conditional Brits now?

📣Defeat the #AntiRefugeeBill 📣 On Tuesday Parliament debates the inhumane Nationality & Borders Bill. ❌Don’t criminalise refugees 🗑Bin citizenship removal powers ✅ Safe asylum routes Tell your MP to oppose the bill using this simple tool 👇👇👇 anothereurope.org/mp-write/borde…

This!!! It is horrendous and so clearly abt making money. Really rankles when rest of UK is having parties unmasked but we, who have tested negative multiple times, have to pay so much money to be held captive.

Whilst attention is focused on Allegra Stratton’s tearful resignation, only minutes ago, the Tories have forced through Nationality & Borders Bill that will cause immense human suffering to some of the most vulnerable people in society. Shameful. Our country is better than this.

I cannot believe people are more bothered about the Tory Christmas party than the fact they’ve just brought in a bill to revoke British citizenship without notice

Compare and contrast this man’s contribution to the UK vs Priti Patel’s.

Retweet if you agree that our governments should send a package of rapid tests & N95 masks to every household, every week, for free.

It’s gone beyond resignations. We need prosecutions.
