I’m leaving X because it has changed out of all recognition from its roots in Twitter. I do not want to support, in any way, Elon Musk, whose irresponsible and ignorant musings are sickening and immoral. Bye.

🗣️ Almost two thirds of people in destitution live with a chronic health condition or disability. Cutting people’s eligibility for benefits won't help. The PM's speech was an irresponsible war of words on people who already aren’t getting enough support. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi….

Esther McVey, Minister for Common Sense, and her husband talk a lot about wasteful public spending. But how careful are they with your money in their own lives? We’ve found out. 👀

Sad but true. What is there to actually vote for? The Labour party is in my blood. Here’s why I’ve just cancelled my membership theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Jeremy Hunt’s budget mixtape is no match for Brexit’s greatest hits. The Jesus and Mary Chain/Trumpton nexus is pure genius. Thank you ⁦@StewartLeeBits⁩ theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

More great work @ByDonkeys on the corrupt and corrupting cabal that have been running the country into the ground while enriching themselves and their friends and families

"My political understanding is this: if I am doing well, I want others to do well, too. I believe in the welfare state. I'm not privately insured. I would never vote for a party because they promised to lower the top tax rate. I'm on the left, of course." Love this quote from Jurgen Klopp.

@KadiatuKM @ShekuKM Sheku is an inspiration. Unthinkable that he should suffer in this way. Thank you, Sheku, for all that you do.

Replying to the barrage of racism against my son @ShekuKM this week. So many feel it’s ok to call for deportation, flogging, sending him ‘back to Africa’ and to use ‘Ni**er’ against someone trying to engage in a conversation about music and inclusion. Horror, rage, heartbreak.

The Daily Mail on Kate Middleton being hospitalized is honestly one of the most mental pieces of journalism I've ever read.

Please make this go viral. It’s never been articulated better than this.

Rishi Sunak claims to have restored 'honesty' to Downing Street However, new @wethinkpolling finds: - Just 1% describe his Government as 'very honest' - 57% describe it as 'corrupt' @carolvorders breaks down the facts🔥

IMPORTANT I work with crowd funded @GoodLawProject on THE VIP PPE Files. Shockingly they've found copies of a plan by Tory agency Topham Guerin to pay influencers to attack Good Law over Xmas. Topham's client is PALANTIR, US spy tech firm, just given £480m NHS data contract by Tories If you see any influencers obviously taking their buck let's name them? See @JolyonMaugham for details🧵⬇️ Pls RT Let's get #TophamGuerin #Palantir trending 👍🏼

Liam Byrne, "This Christmas sales of luxury cars, private jets, super yachts, hit an all time high. Yet food banks in my constituency are now running out of food. We've got homelessness at record levels. And last year 4 million people experienced destitution. Do you ever lie awake at night and worry about the level of economic inequality in our country?" Rishi Sunak, "No.. I want to make sure we reduce economic inequality and spread opportunity and I'm pleased we are making progress on that"

@SarahMillican75 This is in no way a criticism (kudos!) but did you know that liquorice has a massive effect on blood pressure? I’ll just leave that there. 😬

I’ve just eaten a whole bag of liquorice. Anticipating mid Strictly diarrhoea.

Off to bed. Just want to leave this here for the wet and one nation Tories who tomorrow will vote that Rwanda is a safe country. It's the report of the US State Department on Rwanda. Perhaps they'd like a read. Here's a highlight. Sleep tight.

It's now several hours since the unforgivably weak #COP28 draft text came out - which made no reference to fossil fuel phase-out at all, & leaders from France, Germany, EU, US & small island states have all widely condemned - yet still utter silence from UK Govt. Where are they??

@JaneCaseyAuthor Eribe knitwear. That’s all. Based in Melrose. Just lovely.

For the next few weeks I’m at peak risk of buying a fair isle jumper. Look at this beauty. Would it suit me? Absolutely not. Yet I yearn.

@jessphillips YES! Love your straightforward, straight talking attitude.

Didn't sing the national anthem at my graduation. I imagine Prince William didn't sing it at his. The fact that the Government is moaning about this today really does show them to be across the big issues. They'd be better moaning about Wagon Wheels getting smaller.

@jessphillips My heart is full. You are right and you have done the right, the only thing, in the circumstances. Keep being bloody marvellous.

@KoseKeyCo Plastic. 🤬
