Race 3 of the @Sprint15Cat winter TT @DatchetWaterSC youtube.com/watch?v=JQJ_EE…. Really tight racing.

@RealCounties Yes. Until 1890.

@liamthom It actually isn’t - it’s reminding the wonderful Isle that it is geographically part of Hampshire, just as it has been for many centuries… A more detailed, interactive map is available here: map.realcounties.com

Counties are not councils - they are the enduring geography of Britain. The counties remain, unchanged for centuries. Let's put them back on the map!

@onthewight You can clearly get a bike past which is the most important thing. People get so worked up when they can't drive their precious cars where they want.

@JamesCleverly I welcome the government's incompetence in building as many houses as they want. The last thing this country needs is to be concreted over. Let's tackle the cause of housing demand instead.

I will put forward plans to get Britain building again, part of Kemi’s plan to get Britain working again. We’ve committed to scrap Stamp Duty to help get the housing market moving again, but we also need to address the costs and regulatory hurdles. conservatives.com/scrap-stamp-du…

London has been Labour run for over a decade. It’s the UK’s biggest city, key to the whole UK economy, but Labour are failing on housebuilding (both private and social). Doesn’t help when the Housing Secretary opposes home building in his own constituency.

My first go at laying a hedge. Not competition standard but it might keep bullocks in. Six foot to go still.

@CA_TimB Labour ministers couldn't tell a hare from a giraffe.

The Minister for Nature on the brown hare: “We’re going to halt and reverse the decline in this mythical British animal”. The British Trust for Ornithology on the brown hare - 38% increase in last 30 years. Lucky there are no real issues which the government could be tackling.
