@gerrysweeney Those negotiations under the Conservatives were scrapped, and began from scratch. Which is why this deal is substantially different to the ones that the Tories tried to sell. Nice try though.

£1bn gigafactory secured for Sunderland, 1,000 jobs and make batteries for up to 100,000 electric vehicles a year. 6x increase in Britain’s battery-making capacity.
Under Tories that would have been splashed across the front pages.
The media choose not to print the wins.

@O2 Yes. It said lines were closed and to call back in the morning.
And yes, that was after I’d confirm the phone was “lost or stolen”
English
@JHarrisonLDR We're not aware of any reasons why you'd be unable to do this James, was any further information provided on the call?
We can help with this from this platform if you want to drop us a DM with further details. twitter.com/messages/compo…

Outstanding from @O2 - promising 24/7/365 service if your phone gets pinched, then telling you to call back in the morning when it actually does.
Sorry it happened at such an inconvenient time for you
English
@O2 I’m sorry you don’t live up to your promise of 24/7/365 help. Do you fancy addressing that first?

I had a lovely chat with the nice people at the @metoffice about how difficult it is to forecast snow ⛄️

Wonder where Matt learned such stellar analytical skills?
Perhaps his memorable tenure at Northern Rock?
Matt Ridley@mattwridley
BBC, 19 August: "The violence was started by false online rumours that the suspect in the Southport attack was a Muslim." BBC, 29 October: "[He] has been charged with producing the poison ricin and possessing a military study of an al-Qaeda training manual." Verify that.

@GeorgeDobell1 @harrison_antony No. The ECB’s Ts&Cs for hosting tests broke Durham and Glamorgan
English
@harrison_antony It’s a mix. But remember hosting Tests almost broke Glammy and Durham. Not sure this year would have worked for them.

Congratulations to Surrey, who have won a 3rd County Championship title in succession. Given all the players they provide for England and all the players they lose to franchise cricket, that's an incredible achievement.

The combination of excellent local connectivity (metro), long history, beautiful architecture, diverse industrial past, excellent higher education, dense urbanism, suburbia, countryside, and coast that makes Newcastle such an economic powerhouse. [Ed: check stats on this].

Oh what's that, politics guy who lives in London . . . you said Walz gave a great speech but RFK might tank the Wisconsin numbers?

Did… did Biden time this with the end of @TheOpen because he knew Donald Trump would be glued to it?
Joe Biden@JoeBiden
My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.
