@nazirafzal She was always a decidedly average journalist at best, and certainly not the best the BBC have to offer. Of course everyone has a party they prefer, but Kuenssberg couldn’t be more blatant about it. Her face on election night was a picture.

Laura Kuenssberg seems to be finding it hard to be in opposition #bbclaurak

@edwinhayward That is one bitter Tory. The BBC election night coverage was beyond awful. I remember when it was rather good, regardless of outcome. The disappointment in Kuenssberg’s and Chris Mason’s faces when the result was clear, really was a picture.

Diabolic introduction to her interview with Ed Davey from BBC's Laura Kuenssberg. No spoilers, but pay close attention to the end of the clip. Can't see anything to justify it.

@BarronMedia Hi Peter. What’s the word from the organisers? I get the feeling the whole event was a scam and was never going to happen in the first place. Who is behind the event? All looks and sounds dodgy to me

@VotingDogs Daisy’s first general election and delighted to be taking Mam & Dad to the Polling Station in Seaham, Co Durham. Disappointed with lack of biscuits inside though. #dogsatpollingstations

"Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family." Why would Rishi Sunak want to do a thing like that?

@BBCr4today One of the most idiotic things I've heard. Clearly doesn't understand the care sector and the challenges it faces. This country would grind to a halt without foreign workers. Don't like it? Make these positions more attractive then.

"We’re proposing to shut that route so employers look at recruiting local young people" Miriam Cates, MP in the New Conservatives group which wants stricter measures to curb immigration, says ending temporary visa schemes would encourage Brits to fill care sector jobs. #R4Today

Charlotte Owens supposedly can’t be discussed in the press because of a super injunction. But the only reason for a super injunction would be because she is in fact Johnson’s daughter.

@jonsopel @RishiSunak Totally useless. Totally spineless. He's petrified of losing the BJ supporting vote, so he dithers around, offering nothing. You're the leader, man. Lead. Give people a reason to vote for you. This is pathetic.

This is my mum. She died on 15/11/20. While the Tories partied in Christmas jumpers, we said goodbye to her with only 30 family and friends. We had no wake. She deserved so much better. We stuck to the rules. Fuck the Tories. #Partygate #ToryScum

10 days prior to this party, my isolated friend took himself to the woods and hung himself. He was 31. His family couldn’t even grieve together. The world would be a better place had it been one of those fuckers instead. I hate them.

@Kinsellas @Baddiel @DavidHeadViews Totally. All part of the specially choreographed PR, an act that he’s been doing for years. Anything to look ‘quirky’ and appeal to those who feel abandoned by mainstream politicians. Thankfully those days, hopefully, coming to an end.

@Baddiel @DavidHeadViews We only ever see the last few metres of his jogs, by convenient arrangement with the cameras. Also, if he really took as much exercise as he pretends, wouldn’t, he look in slightly better shape?

I'm not convinced that Boris Johnson actually jogs. I think he just jogs so that he appear to be unruffled and doing-something-else whilst being photographed. Also, those seem to be boxer shorts.

@BBCTees @BenHouchen I’ll correct this for you Ben. I’m Mr Wake from Darlington and this man was a complete and utter disgrace and the sooner he has vanished from all trace, the better. A narcissist who isn’t half as popular as he thinks he is.

There has never been a change of fortune in British politics as fast or dramatic as Nicola Sturgeon’s. Also I think no modern precedent for an ex political leader as powerful as her to be held “in custody” by police. Extraordinary. Only weeks ago her colleagues were insisting to me this a storm in teacup. This is not to in any sense presume guilt or innocence. It is simply to place the arrest in historical context.
