When did 'congratulations' not become enough? 'Huge congratulations', 'massive congratulations'. I need a chart to tell me what level of congratulations to give in any social situation- I wouldn't want to over or under congratulate. I want to congratulate appropriately.

@wesstreeting @Keir_Starmer The NHS's ability to tackle waiting lists and treat patients is severely constrained by shortages of key doctor groups. The threat to take away 1,000 extra training places if strikes are not called off will surely worsen an already dire situation, no?

The BMA seems surprised that if they reject the deal on offer and go on strike their members don’t get what the Government is offering. We have time before Easter weekend to resolve this dispute. A deal on jobs and pay is on the table. @Keir_Starmer 👇🏻 thetimes.com/article/18f9fd…

@Nigel_Farage tmThe "freedom" defended in those wars includes the very civil liberties—such as freedom of religion and freedom of speech—that allow groups to gather in Trafalgar Square today. So stow it, grifter.

What we witnessed in London at the historic Trafalgar Square, in a country built on Judeo-Christian values, was a group of people attempting dominance over our capital city and our culture. We are not going to surrender everything that was built over centuries and defended at great cost in two world wars for us to be a free, independent nation. The British people will not put up with this any longer — simple as.

@DanFMDatabases Look agree yourself Dan. Combination of three degenerative conditions choroidal neovascylarisation, macular degeneration and keratoconus. Recent bleed in right eye has permanently removed central field vision. Oh joys

Scratch on my eye, to someone normal it's yeah it hurt for a bit, for me it really hurts as I have a underlying eye condition called Corneal Dystrophy which is pretty rare in humans. I love my quirky body!

@TheOfficialFNG Micro-transactions, pay to win gated content. Degenerating vision has impacted how often and long I play, but deliberately framing how I play for example focusing on building the best Womens team I can.

hello all, working on a video about FC/FIFA games, if you don't play the game anymore, why? What are the reasons? gameplay? game modes? what we saying?

@mariacaulfield What are your views on the default, nationwide rule for free travel on busses for pensioners being limited to 9:30 AM to 11:00 PM on weekdays? Is that not already an introduced restriction on travel?

Restrictions on movements being introduced in Oxford . Depending on where you live in the City dictates how often you are allowed in certain parts. Doesn’t matter if you need to travel to work or look after an elderly parent. Coming to a City near you soon 👇

@TiceRichard Looks more like your recruitment list for Reform.

Prosper UK launch! Like a soggy stale sandwich from the old British Rail All the Tory Wets who screwed up the UK over last 15 yrs have got together to remind each other how they messed it up 🤣🤣

@railnigel Those maps were excellent. I recall a fair few of them being brought home along with hard hats and fluorescent jackets. Old stationery too. My dad was British Rail etc for 20+ years. Mostly finance and trackside inspections on how money was spent.

You used to get one free with the national printed timetable and I used to do just that….,

Would Andy Burnham win a by-election? We don't know for sure but one thing we do know is he is VERY popular in the north-west. More so than Starmer, Labour and Nigel Farage. If anyone has a personal brand up there - it is him. Source: @Ipsos_in_the_UK Political Pulse

@JamesMelville Originally, “woke” meant being alert to social injustices, especially racism. In that sense, it’s neither absurd nor controversial—most people agree injustices exist and should be addressed. Problems arise when "woke" shifts from awareness to an ideology (an -ism) with rules.

Here’s Ricky Gervais holding his line against the absurdity of wokeism. The BBC interviewer just doesn’t get it and becomes part of the joke here.

.@Keir_Starmer the lawyer would probably give a very different answer to that question as compared to Starmer the politician over Venezuela. Pragmatism and principles are uncomfortable bedfellows.

@LBC @lewis_goodall Darren Jones not for answering hypothetical questions, pity any waiter who serves him. "What would Sir like? Would he like lamb or beef?" "I'm not here to answer hypothetical questions".

‘You sound like you’re speaking for a country who’s afraid of a bigger country.’ @Lewis_Goodall grills Labour’s Darren Jones on the UK’s repsonse to the US capture of Nicolás Maduro.

@lollujo @TomFM_YT A rose betwixt two thorns, @OfficialBWFC all the way.

@TomFM_YT If you’d have offered me that league table a month ago I’d have bitten your arm off.

. @TomFM_YT is a poopy head, pass it on.

@trussliz @GoodwinMJ @PeterMcCormack @ThatAlexWoman You seem to have forgotten that 1, you were Prime Minister at the heart government for many years preceding that. 2, you were booted out of number 10 by her own party and 3, that you were then booted out of seat by her constituents. Oh well.

@Scott46198555 @MoriartyProfJ26 While I've been fussed and blocked by a bot, you can reasonably say that universal trial rights in the UK were fully established only with the Human Rights Act 1998. Everything before that expanded rights—but only partially, to certain groups, or without strong enforceability.

@Scott46198555 @MoriartyProfJ26 The 1225 Magna Carta did not include everyone. It protected free men (freemen)—a minority of the population—along with certain rights of the Church, barons, and landholders. Most people were unfree peasants / serfs (villeins), and they were not covered by its protections.

@PUNISHEDSTG @MoriartyProfJ26 Consider the fact that I support the OG point, but that the incorrect citation of Magna Carta undermined it. Makes me not a cretin but someone who cares about making arguments and points correctly.

@pilkijam @MoriartyProfJ26 You really thought you cooked here didn't you. Absolute 90 IQ cretin lmao

@OzKaterji Sadly this is the only gif I can find of 'The Popular Front' from Monty Python's of Brian.

I hope Your Party UK LTD chooses the name "Popular Alliance", because like Voltaire famously quipped about the HRE, it will neither be Popular nor an alliance, and also like Voltaire, will be driven mad by antisemitism.

Nigle, this is my reply to your letter. Dear Mr Farage, You say Britain is broken. On that, we agree. But let’s be honest about how we got here. You talk about economic chaos, record debt, and a quarter of a million people fleeing the country. Yet you fail to mention the elephant in the room: Brexit. The project you championed. The rupture you sold as liberation. Since Brexit, we’ve seen: 1) Trade barriers that have strangled small businesses and exporters. 2) Labour shortages across farming, hospitality, and healthcare. 3) Higher inflation, worsened by a weaker pound and disrupted supply chains. 4) Lost investment, as companies relocate to EU hubs. 5) A fractured union, with Northern Ireland caught in a bureaucratic limbo. You blame the Conservatives and Labour. But Brexit was your baby. You stood on the deck waving the flag while the ship sailed into a storm. Now you want to captain the lifeboat? Your letter talks about “alarm clock Britain” and “hard-working taxpayers.” But Brexit has made life harder for them. Prices are up. Opportunities are down. And the promised sunlit uplands turned out to be fog. You say Reform UK will fix Britain. But how can you fix what you helped break? Until you acknowledge the damage Brexit has done, economically, socially, diplomatically, your promises ring hollow. We don’t need more slogans. We need accountability. And we need leaders who face facts, not just stir fury. Yours sincerely, A voter who remembers the promises.

@GaffersLounge Appreciate the share.

Mental health & #FM26 tend to often go hand in hand, some say it causes stress and anxiety &!we could all see that point of view at times However there is another side to it, a side of storytelling, immersion & escapism, this is what I crave when I play 👇🏻 thegafferslounge.com/2025/11/26/gra…
