I’ve just spent an enjoyable hour blocking people who can’t be polite when they disagree with me. If you’re rude, threatening, ageist or abusive, straight down the toilet you go. Simple pleasures... Why not just disagree without being offensive? That way I’ll listen to you.

It is with great sadness and regret that I have to announce that I am going to have to pretend that I’m leaving X for attention. This place has become a far-right toxic bin fire and pretending to be thinking about leaving for attention is the right thing to be seen to be doing. Out of respect for you all I shall not tweet for an hour now.

@CPMumma79 @BritishGas The problem I had was that all the utility companies were great, but each one had their own process that was different to all the others! A one stop process for utilities similar to Tell Us Once would be a brilliant thing for people having to navigate this.

Britain has been a Christian nation for over 1,400 years. Through wars, plagues, and countless kings, Easter has always been celebrated. Yet now, Cadbury won’t even use the word ‘Easter’ on their eggs. When did celebrating British traditions become controversial?

@CPMumma79 Had the same letter when my mum died last year, my take was that this process is reversing a direct debit that was paid in "error" rather than direct access to any other funds in the account. I ended up having to pay them the overpayment later from estate.

How come Rob's tips for "saving money" always involve spending a load more money?

What’s quite astounding is Pension age has been increased to 68yrs as apparently our Government can no longer afford it, families are struggling to get by, but miraculously they can afford to splash out on thousands & thousands of unknown people who’ve not paid a penny into this country. Then they wander why we are not happy.

@AllisonPearson Until 2028 the freeze on tax threshold is from the previous government. But then you know that.

If you earn over £50,270 a year you will now pay 40% tax even if things are tight for your two-child family and the cost of living is horrendous. If you have six children, Labour will now give you £14,000 extra. What was that about Fairness? #Budget

@RupertLowe10 In the past month the drivers that have come closest to causing an accident to happen to me on the road have almost exclusively been white middle aged men driving transit vans.

Unqualified foreign drivers are making British roads far more dangerous to drive on. This is an undeniable fact.

The Governor of the Bank of England has responded to my criticism of the bank's racist internship scheme. Usual woke garbage. However, good news. Since my intervention, they have removed the entry requirement 'be of black/mixed heritage background'. Opening it to all. A win.

Vile anti-white racism from the Bank of England. An eight week paid internship, and 'at least' a £5,000 grant - white boys and girls banned from applying. You're a disgrace, @bankofengland. This racist filth must be removed and opened to all - including white people.

@ProfBrianCox The "scientist": "according to parapsychologist Dean Radin, Ph.D., the chief scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences and associated distinguished professor of integral and transpersonal psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies."

@sophielouisecc I had to renew my mortgage, paid off half of it with an endowment policy that had matured and my monthly payments were still more than I was paying before. That's Truss's legacy for me.

So you're saying if we'd sprayed stuff white and then put a red cross on it the media would have supported us? You live and learn I guess.
