Have two siblings had international sporting success on the same day before? Nikita Parris scored for England Lionesses & her sister Natasha Jonas became an unified boxing world champion. Pretty epic day for their family and the nation. Not seen a decent sports report about them yet

Uni students arriving this month were born in .. 2004. Not alive on 9/11. No memory of PMs Blair & Brown. Too young to vote in Brexit ref/2017/2019 GEs. Whole life online. Shaped by crises: 4 yr old = global crash, 6 Eurozone, 10 refugee, 12 Brexit/Trump, 16 Covid, 18 Ukraine

I urge people to watch this important documentary. It transforms our understanding of the narrative which destroyed Jeremy Corbyn. Meanwhile the silence from the media/political establishment is deafening. youtube.com/watch?v=5DTMF0…

An international banker friend tells me: “The hedge funds made a ton of money because they met up with #KwasiKwarteng 3 days before the announcement and they shorted Sterling big time - isn’t that insider trading in a mega way? I am appalled”

It broke my heart listening to Peter Scarfe from HSA-Hillsborough Survivors Support Alliance CIC tell us yesterday at Hillsborough Law Now fringe that 3 survivors of Hillsborough have taken their own lives since the events around Paris in May💔

I found my neighbour sitting in his car today.the chap I’ve been cooking for since the start of the lockdown. He’s a bit lonely. The drive was in full sun. He said it’s warmer than being in a house he can’t afford to heat. This is Britain 2022. He’s worked all his life. He’s 80:

Wow. Kwasi Kwarteng attended private champagne reception *hours* after delivering mini-budget where hedge fund managers (who would gain from crash in pound) urged him to double down - scoop from ⁦Tim Shipman⁩ & ⁦⁦Gabriel Pogrund⁩ thetimes.co.uk/article/kwasi-…

It's remarkable how attitudes to both asylum-seekers and benefits claimants soften when the Daily Mail isn't raging against them every morning. I often wonder what the country would be like if stoking hatred & division hadn't proved so profitable for Rothermere, Murdoch & co.

It’s all there in Britannia Unchained, co-authored by Liz Truss and Kwarteng: the pound can collapse, borrowing and mortgages can soar, pensioners can freeze, kids can go hungry, as long as the economy is ripe for venture capitalists freed from regulation and, ideally, tax.

James O'Brien absolutely destroys Brexiteer after Brexiteer as 'all of their chickens have come home to roost almost at exactly the same time'. This is one of his most explosive monologues yet... James O'Brien

2 year-old Awaab Isaak died because the home he lived in was unfit for human habitation. His parents complained but were ignored. This is not a one-off. Thousands of families are living in awful conditions. This is just some what we’ve found in our 18 month investigation🧵1/16

What about fast tracking “patient waiting times” or “the train debacle with Avanti” or “meeting Union leaders on pay” or “getting the billions back off your mates in the VIP lane” or “sorting the economy for the millions your government have put into poverty”!

Lee Anderson MP You voted to stop children eating school meals in a pandemic! That ends any debate you will ever enter with anyone!

I’ve worked in A&E for 22 years & seen nothing like this before. The NHS is in a critical state. We need urgent action for sake of our staff & patients. Steve Barclay Rishi Sunak we need you to listen to those who know what’s happening. To get them to listen, pls retweet

SUNAK DOESN'T CARE ABOUT YOUR CHILD Our state schools worry about going bankrupt Rows rage about free school meals Meanwhile, private schools (inc those of ministers) were given extra £157m Get angry, stay angry, they are destroying your children's future opendemocracy.net/en/dark-money-…

Why are Zahawi and Braverman stories not all over every news bulletin, as they would be if they were ministers in a non Tory government in a country with a genuinely free media ?

Braverman and Zahawi should both be sacked TODAY. Retweet if you agree.

If the right wing racist rags that for too long have polluted the public discourse in this country win, then the BBC is dead and I don't know who we are as a nation anymore. yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/people/ga…

There was some big news this week which should have been top of the news agenda - the fact that it wasn’t and the story that dominated the public space instead tells a worrying story about the priorities of many in this country 🧵

Rewriting history doesn’t make it true Under Starmer’s leadership we finally tackled these abuses, which had previously been handled poorly He put me in charge,we brought 100s of offenders to justice & gave voice to 1000s of victims A simple google/twitter search would show this
