Suella Braverman is threatening the prime minister with her imminent resignation regarding his stance on the NI protocol. Sunak will once again throw the UK under the bus to appease a grubby, ERG fascist.

@matoxley Our democracy depends on a strong opposition, and a balanced free press. Without it it’s an utter cesspool of corruption.

@matoxley Yes, met him briefly twice, can only compare to standing in Senna’s presence…Always good for a quote - when asked “We’ve heard you’re being offered more than 3m to stay with Yamaha” he replied “ I heard that too” ! I love the guy :-)

Always gives me goosebumps reading old Rainey quotes. You really feel his intensity, intelligence. He's a very impressive presence - you felt like David standing in front of Goliath, but without a slingshot

Re #MotoGP electronics brain Tom O'Kane. These pages are from my Superheroes book - it's Wayne Rainey talking about his early use of data with Tom & Team Roberts. By chance, they discovered carrying the data kit in the seat hump damped out chatter. So MotoGP's first mass damper!

@johnredwood Government made the mess, BOE has to try and remedy it. 10% inflation completely down to Tory government, Brexit, energy hike and not BOE.

More economists should ask how the Bank of England landed us with 10% inflation, five times their target. Why did they think printing so much money and keeping rates near zero would keep prices down?

The slump in UK steel output comes from the high taxes imposed. Why are we taxing our industry to destruction, so we have to import instead?

@johnredwood It’s not about trade ? Seriously ?? Our country is a financial dying star without it. Are you honestly completely unaware of the economy ? Are you so rich that you don’t care ?

Brexit is about making our own laws and imposing our own taxes, not about trade. As it happens the value of our exports to the EU has gone up since we left. There has been damage to GB sales to Northern Ireland because the EU is trying to stop Brexit for NI.

The Tories blocked my Bill to extend free school meals to all primary school kids last week. The week before that they rejected a motion to end private schools' £1,700,000,000 tax break. The Tories' priorities: Protecting tax breaks for private schools, not feeding hungry kids.

The Conservative Party are not the Conservative Party anymore. They’re Blu-kip, a Tommy Robinson tribute act, a mixture of the National Front and the BNP. I’d sooner trust a wild goose to govern us, than that set of shameless reprobates.

Last night, 292 Conservative MPs voted to allow sewage dumping by water companies in our rivers and coasts for at least 15 more years. Can you spot your MP on the list?

@LKTranslator It needs to be privatised tbh. The waiting list is disgusting, the lack of technology in medicine is awful. We are losing more nurses and more doctors. Idk how much more the NHS can take. We already pay it through tax so why not just pay that money on health insurance 🤷🏻‍♂️

PPE Medpro get £200,000,000 contract after lobbying by Michelle Mone. Barrowman (Mone's husband) gets £65,000,000 payout and hands over £29,000,000 to Mone via an offshore account. The PPE provided was useless. Am I the only one incensed by this?

In Italy Job Seekers get £730 a month, in the UK £242.20. Is the UK a 3rd world country?
