Early in the pandemic, Sir Paul Nurse offered to turn the Crick Institute - the largest biomedical research facility in Europe - into a huge COVID testing lab. The government… never responded!

Anyone - politician, donor, think tank or journalist - who helped Boris Johnson become Prime Minister, should not be allowed anywhere near senior positions in public life again. Some of us knew from the word go he would be a total disaster and everything we are hearing 1/3

The Icon of the Seas, the largest cruise ship in the world holds 5,610 in hotel luxury. The Bibby Stockholm holds 220, or 500 if you squash them in. They both cost £1.6bn, one to buy, the other to rent for 2 years. The corruption and grift is insane. Jail these crooks.

Seeing lots of rather dubious takes flying round twitter about the effects of adding VAT to private school fees or removing their charitable status. Lots of “but think of the poor struggling parents” and “there’ll be a mass exodus FLOODING state schools” etc Reality check🧵 1/

I would like to mark the sad resignation of Nadine Dorries by fondly recalling the historic occasion on which she learnt how the television station she was planning to sell was funded, live on air.

If Putin has really now lost control in Russia, then Sunak has a real problem : the next guy could simply publish the evidence that Putin laundered millions into the UK to help criminally procure Brexit , and that’s the end of the Tories - and Brexit …

‘David Cameron made the referendum policy because he didn’t want to risk losing 10 or 15 seats to UKIP and look where it has got us’ This 16-year-old says the Conservative Party are responsible for #Brexit. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

This govt is scared of water companies dumping sewage exposing that due to Brexit they can’t get hold of chemicals needed to treat raw sewage… So the govt turn a blind eye while the sewage dumps into our waters increase by (and this is incredible) 2,900% in 5 years.

If Liz Truss can only see fields used for solar panels rather than crops… she should look underneath them?

Brexophiles before brexit "vote to leave the EU because cheap workers are under cutting British wages". Brexophiles after brexit "we changed the law so workers who want better pay can be undercut by agency staff" Anyone still think you were taking back control?

For the "what about 1976" brigade. In the 1976 heatwave, which you probably remember fondly as a child with no responsibilities: - £500m crops failed, causing food prices to rise by 12% - excess deaths rose by 20% And the maximum temperature was 35.9°C, not 40°C

The NHS is under extreme pressure in the middle of summer. It's not really being talked about. Certainly politicians seem to be ignoring it and hoping it goes away. Here's a thread on just what's happening. Please share far and wide. This affects all of us. 1/15
