@ToryWipeout Make Britain Cough Again 🩺

Blow smoke in kids faces like we did in the 70s, make Britain great again!

@RealTimVine I think it means 5 people have got better and no longer have the disease.

BBC Headline: ‘Cases of Meningitis down to 29 from 34’. I don’t understand. It can’t mean 5 people got better because they would still have been cases, so were 5 cases misdiagnosed? If it’s the latter then it’s not gone down from 34. It never got to 34! Am I being thick?

@PortsmouthSaint @LozzaFox @Keir_Starmer @UKLabour And the same Trump, who, in February 2024, said he would "encourage" Russia to attack any NATO member country that didn’t meet its financial obligations to the defence alliance".

@LozzaFox @Keir_Starmer @UKLabour Is this the same Trump who threatened to invade a nato country, who slagged off dead British soldiers, who said last week that he didn’t want the UK’s help? At least we know that @LozzaFox is more of a Trump simp than a patriot

Britain under @Keir_Starmer and @UKLabour is no longer an ally of the United States. Thanks Keir for choosing a murderous caveman over the nation which came to our rescue whenever we were in our time of need.

@richardosman Whoever takes over will have to look good on a wheelie suitcase. 🙂

Thank you for all your kind words as I step down from #HouseOfGames after 9 amazing years. It is honestly the most fun show to work on, with the most wonderful team, but, after 800 episodes it's time to hand over the keys to a new host. There are plenty of new episodes still to air though, and I'll even be filming one final handover week later in the year! It really has been a treat from start to finish.

😋

@VictoriaCoren Did you pay for tracking or signing, or did you cast your fate to the winds? A couple of kilos is like four old-fashioned cans of marmalade, so is probably too heavy to be delivered by a regular 'postie' - this might mean it goes on a van, which could delay it.

I posted a Christmas present (small to medium parcel; weighed a couple of kilos) last Thursday from London to Kent, first class, which still hasn’t got there. Based on your personal experience of the post, do you think it will

@MeachamDr @grok To give him the benefit of the doubt, what he is probably clumsily saying/meaning is that if a drug costs $600, he has brought down the price to $100. It's possible that he doesn't understand how percentages work.

Hey @Grok, is it possible to lower drug prices by 600 percent? Or lower any price by 600 percent?

@RealTimVine @googlephotos It sounds like someone posing as Google is trying to scam you, or get hold of your bank details, or both. I suggest downloading all your photos onto a memory stick/s and then delete the Google Photos app.

Tech support please. Can I delete the Google Photos app without it deleting pics from my iPad? It says it’s storing ALL my photos (never asked it to) and if I don’t pay a monthly fee they may be ‘at risk’. I’ve switched off the ‘back up and sync’ but concerned. @googlephotos

@mrmarksteel Many a sensible word is spoken in jest, though I do fear that Kenny would put an over-emphasis on cycling. For transport I suggest Lewis Hamilton (Lando Norris is still too much of a boy-racer).

Right. We need a government made up of sportspeople. I propose: PM Ben Stokes, Chancellor Gareth Southgate, Home Secretary Judy Murray, Foreign Secretary Gary Lineker, Education Marcus Rashford, Housing to Dinah Asher-Smith, Andy Murray for sport, Laura Kenny at Transport.

@RobBfromDerby Now we know why Sadiq Khan is so keen on step-free access throughout London. 🙂

Had to walk through central London last night and realised the city I once loved is no more. Just look! 👇

@mrmarksteel The phrase 'angels dancing on the head of a pin' comes to mind. I suppose Jeremy Corbyn will now have to rename Your Party as My Party.

Ah, the new Jeremy Corbyn / Zara Sultana party seems to have imploded before it started. I wonder if the strategy of the left should be to all join Reform, as with their track record they could make the whole thing collapse in acrimony within a week.

There is still some nice stuff on X. 🙂

@RealMattLucas Looks great. I must go there immediately.

good morning

@BulwarkOnline I've just realised what the deal will be on Friday - Putin withdraws from Ukraine but gets to keep Alaska. 😉

Trump: "I'm going to see Putin. I'm going to Russia on Friday." Trump is going to Alaska on Friday — which has not been part of Russia since 1867.

@omid9 Disagree with you about skirting the Caspian Sea - too far south. After the Moscow bypass, the most direct route is through Kazakhstan (and Mongolia which you mentioned). And if you enter Beijing on the Ulaanbataar Road, you need to follow the signs on the inner ring road.

Big up to all the #BlackCab drivers of London who have done “the knowledge”. We appreciate you 😊👊🏼❤️

@BarristerSecret Just how many dog whistles does he own?

That this is presented by the media as “policy” is why we are in this mess. These are not serious people. These are monkey tennis ideas, as divorced from the reality of criminal justice as you might expect from a company fronted by multi-millionaire simpletons.

@Peston Tariff on what - US box office receipts? The salaries of British actors? Tariff on the use of any film locations outside America?

Goodness only knows how the UK does a trade deal with the US after this from President Trump. The UK has a significant film industry built on tax breaks. Good bye Mr Bond

@restisents How did the penguins cope with the heat in Spain?

The complexities of working with penguins (and Steve Coogan) on a movie set 🐧

@DeborahMeaden Surely this is the first step in a plan of economic blackmail and interference in the laws of another country. If the UK were to comply, Trump could come back with the threat of a 50% or 100% tariff and some other interfering demand. It could go on forever.

The irony of "telling" another Country what to do and dressing it up as "freedoms". Pretty sure not being "told" what to do ( even if we weren't) was what Brexit was all about. Starmer told to accept Trump ‘free speech’ agenda to win trade deal independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

@DeborahMeaden Is there some shorting going on? 🤔

Excellent question..
