If we left the ECHR what rights do you want to lose? If none, why leave? If you want to give less rights to a particular group of people why do you think they are less human than you? If you still want to leave you are no different to those that led to the creation of the ECHR.

@SpireiteLiam @Dallocles Remember newspaper headlines in the 70s and 80s declaring anything about 72°F was scorching hot? Well that’s only 22°c….

@Dallocles Didn’t we break a heat record from 80 years ago? So if it was that hot 80 years ago then climate change is bull shit. We use dark red for heat on our heat maps for 29 degrees lol. I don’t find it humid at all in England.

Fucks sake i'm sick of UK weather discourse let this be the first and last I speak on it. I've lived in the UK and Utah, which is a very dry heat. The UK is worse, despite being lower. Why? We're an island, it's very humid, it's like trying to breathe through a damp towel. 1/2

A whole month to think up a story and this was what they came up with? Is this the political equivalent of the dog eat my homework. Firstly, it doesn’t change the facts of the matter as Farage still hasn’t explained what the money is for and what he did with it. 🧵1/5

My phone was hacked by Moscow, says Farage: 'Deeply concerned' Reform leader claims Russian spies leaked details of £5million gift that could lead to ban from Commons trib.al/2w20nK8

@DanNeidle Also what would stop people moved from an annual salary to hourly pay to get the tax benefit? What determines overtime? Is your contract is changed to 1 day a week and the other 4 days are overtime you’d be quids in

Reform UK have announced a plan to make overtime tax-exempt. I'm sceptical this makes sense - more soon. But an interesting question: if you were the Chancellor, and you were making a £5bn tax cut... what tax would you cut? What would have the maximum positive impact?

@RobKenyonReform A question about reform policy- If we left the ECHR what rights do you want to lose? If none, why leave? If you want to leave so that you can give less rights to a particular group of people why do you think they are less human than you?

Makerfield is not a plaything for professional politicians. We don't need someone using us as a springboard for their political career. What we need is a new hospital, sensible housebuilding, and an MP who lives and breathes this area.

Some Facts: Over 50% of tenants rent from a private landlord. The Government cannot afford to buy/build that number of homes. Some people will never be able to, or want to, buy their home. If you attack landlords you will reduce the number of homes available to rent.
Kirstie Allsopp@KirstieMAllsopp

Surprise, surprise @wesstreeting is on @BBCr4today bashing landlords. I’ve got news for you mate, we can’t have a “productive nation” without people having homes, so if you want to tax Landlords to hell, I’d build some alternative accommodation first ‘cos you’re going to need it.

@HomeoftheM @HarrietCross_MP @thomaspower As a net importer of gas the price that BP charges is based upon what other oil companies charge. This is the open market price. There is not enough gas left in the North Sea for us to become a net exporter (which could lower prices) so we are pegged to the open market price

@HomeoftheM @HarrietCross_MP @thomaspower Didn’t say it did You have to understand how the commodities and futures markets work The oil companies sell the gas on to an energy company who sell it to you. You don’t buy directly from BP or have a direct connection to the Forties oil field. BP has to paid for extraction etc

🇬🇧 🥀 Labour think banning new oil & gas will make the UK more “energy independent”. 🇳🇴 Norway think drilling their oil & gas will make them more “energy independent”. I know who I think is right.

@HomeoftheM @HarrietCross_MP @thomaspower It is landed on the UK coast by the private companies who extracted it and they sell it on the open market. From which the energy companies (ie British Gas, Octopus etc) buy it and sell it to us. It’s clear you don’t know how global markets work

@FergusMason25 No, but that is the market price we are charged and opening up the North area wouldn’t change that price significantly

This is a lie. Gas in Britain currently costs 124.46p per therm. In the USA it currently costs 25p per therm. Electricity prices are not "set by global gas rates" because THERE ARE NO GLOBAL GAS RATES. Labour are just lying to you because they think you're too stupid to check it yourself.
Darren Jones MP@darrenpjones

Inflation is down today, in part thanks to action we've taken on energy bills. But the price of electricity is still set by global gas rates, despite half of our electricity coming from renewables. So we're taking steps to fix that too. Let me explain 👇

@timothy_stanley Yes, earning £90k+ a year does mean that you can’t enjoy the odd drink… Actually, why are my taxes subsidising MPs food and drink?

@BenGrahamUK No, he took money, didn’t declare it as he should have, changed his reason for why he got the £5million and lied about how he funded a house purchase in Surrey. That, and he still hasn’t explained the house purchase in Clacton…. It’s Tice that has dodgy tax affairs….

All the rumours. All the slurs. All the hysterical accusations aimed at Nigel Farage. And now it turns out he likely doesn’t owe any tax at all. Another failed attempt at character assassination from people desperate to destroy him politically. This has backfired spectacularly.

Dan Neidle@DanNeidle

I promised our analysis of the £5m gift to Nigel Farage would annoy everybody. The verdict? He probably doesn't owe any tax. Why? Because "campaigning for Brexit" isn't a taxable trade, and genuine gifts aren't income. But there are risks for him. Thread:

I will end Judaism. Jews need to leave the UK if they don't obey & assimilate. ⬆️ Hate speech, right? I should be on a list & banned from leading protests, right ? Tommy Robinson said it about Muslims 3 days ago. 👀 Where are the calls to ban his protests?

It’s not just Starmer who’s the problem. It’s all the Labour MPs who believe the answer to our country’s problems is spending more of other people’s money. They’re wrong. My article in @conhome 👇

@ClaireCoutinho Your repeated reminder that North Sea gas is sold on the open market. It does not increase the supply of cheaper gas to the UK.
