I won’t be here on Friday so here is a fish and chip shop included in the general mayhem that is typical of the artists work
The second is ‘She’s Leaving Home’

@JeanHatchet @KemiBadenoch Yes, and she is beautiful. Her mind, her wit, and her ability to run rings around Labour.
English
Got to be acknowledged surely - even cross party - that @KemiBadenoch is the best dressed woman in the House. This dress is beautifully tailored.

Met Police had confiscated my sausage and inbred repellent spray. Not a problem. I've got plenty more.

@HJoyceGender Makes me think of the classic, can I get? No, you can't, it's may I?
Sadly, I hear this all too often from Brits. It's disappointing and thoroughly incorrect.
English
During the past year Google Docs started suggesting "have gotten" when I type "have got", despite being set to English (UK). I mark this "suggestion is wrong" but it's obviously a losing battle - most under-25s seem to say "gotten" now. Presumably in a decade I'll have given up.

@georgegalloway You called that one right. How bizarre that he thinks it's a good move. What, to bring back those that voted Reform or Green? He's delusional!

It is pure parody that Starmer has responded to yesterday’s landslide defeats by bringing back from the dead … Gordon Brown! And Harriet Harman!

@elonmusk SNP = Scottish Nationalist Party. Any political party with Nationalism in there is questionable.
