@Peston Well the money was there then so no need for the cut. What a stupid take on what's happening in the world right now. Not until something happens closer to home with the british public accept tax increases for defence. Report better please.

I am pretty sure that in the Blair/Brown governments, if overseas aid had been slashed on the scale of today’s cuts, ministers would have resigned. If no minister does quit today or soon, that will be significant

@TheCazzeris @benonwine @waitrose Looking at his posts, he's definitely an idiot. I'm sure @waitrose will make sure he removes any content linked to them but they can't stop their employees being idiots in there own time

@ThatTimWalker Hi Tim, I'm baffled why you are retweeting these go fund me tweets as they seem like they could be cons and somone using the misery of what's happening. Surely a well organised charity on the ground you can donate to is the best way to help if you can?

@Dr_SaebGaza @DrSaeb800 Scam. So he's eating leaves and if we go fund him he'll pop down to the local bank and withdraw money out and buy food where?? If you want to give money to gaza do it through the red Cross or red crescent or many other reputable charities. Don't give money to this fake account

ALASTAIR CAMPBELL@campbellclaret·
Nothing I have seen or heard about the Smyth case has changed my view that @JustinWelby is a good man with a good heart, strong values and a commitment to public service. He was assured the police and other authorities were properly on the case. Yes, as he admits, he could have been more curious and checked in with exactly what was being done. He has apologised and I think many reasonable people will accept that. However he has chosen what all too few public figures do these days which is accept institutional responsibility. Ps for some reason I am getting calls from journalists who have been told I am handling his PR. I am not. I suspect that is being put around by those ultra conservative forces who have long wanted him gone, and who are aware that I see him from time to time.

@FergusCraig When he said it I knew Trump would win. Democrats under estimated Trump last time and they did it again and with the polls as close as they were I couldn't understand Rory's statement. America is racist and misogynist.

The Budget and climate change: do they really care? taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2024/10/3… Hundreds of billions of investment is required to manage climate change in this country, much of it by the government. We got £7.8 billion over two years. It's as if they really do not care.

@zarahsultana @JennyMc97820255 So naturally you'll be resigning the whip and will fightong a by-election over this matter or is it just postering as usual. You didn't mind labour money getting you elected.

Labour took £4 million from Quadrature Capital, which profits from F-35 jets bombing people in Gaza & Lebanon. Meanwhile, the government refuses to end all arms sales to Israel, including F-35 parts, making it complicit in genocide. Labour must return this blood-stained money.

Only way it’s more explicable is that he knew that the planes would never take off for Rwanda, in which case he misled the country and the strategic decision to place so much emphasis on it as a solution equally inexplicable. Don’t get me wrong, Sunak did country a favour biting the bullet as a govt running down the clock is never much good for anyone except maybe governing party. But still, it remains an odd choice.

Inflation down below target. There’s a world we’d be in the middle of an election campaign right now and it would have been great news for Sunak. The July decision remains inexplicable.

Just met a (brilliant) female friend who showed me a professional document and asked me my opinion on it, before she submitted it. I noticed there was a typo in “mansplaining”. Wasn’t quite sure what to do.
