This week, Scorsese releases his film Killers of the Flower Moon: the true story of the mass murder of the Osage and the theft of their oil wealth. But the story doesn’t end when the credits roll. For 27 years, I've been investigating what happened next... 🧵

True or false?🧐

@10DowningStreet @EU_Commission Go on! Explain to us why this anything more than undoing the wanton vandalism that your party undertook and that you fully supported. UK scientists have already been needlessly excluded from Horizon for the last 2+ years because of you.

DEAL DONE: The UK is joining Horizon Europe. Following negotiations with @EU_Commission, UK scientists will now have access to the world’s largest research and innovation programme on better terms for British taxpayers. It’s another step to grow the economy. Here’s why ⬇️

@prodnose I fought the leg

Replace a word in a song title with the word Leg. Only Rule: the word you replace must begin with L too. I'll start. George Harrison's "My Sweet Leg". #LegSongs

@johnharris1969 We shouldn't forget his active climate change denying. Pretending he was an expert in afield where he had no expertise just to sow doubt. He may have been wry bt there was something malodorant. RIP

In 2009, I interviewed all the surviving ex-chancellors apart from Brown (who knocked me back): Healey, Howe, Lawson, Major, Lamont, Clarke. Lawson was drily funny & reflective. RIP amp.theguardian.com/politics/2009/…

@lewis_goodall Let's not forget his active climate change denying. Never mind he'll not be here to think about the consequences RIP.

Whatever you think of Thatcherism and the Thatcher government, in so many ways Nigel Lawson defined it (including literally). He was a giant of postwar conservatism and Conservative thinking.

Boris Johnson’s appearance before the privileges committee is a “make or break moment”. Political Editor of The Sun, @MrHarryCole, says MPs from both sides of the chamber want to see the former PM expelled from parliament for good. #KayBurley LT

@lewis_goodall Utter disgrace!

NEW: BBC says that Gary Lineker is to "step back from presenting Match of the Day until agreement reached on social media."

@ITVNewsPolitics @GaryLineker @PennyMordaunt

'Labour are borrowing from the @GaryLineker playbook' @PennyMordaunt says Labour is a party of 'goal hangers and the occasional left-wing striker' and 'this country doesn't need goal hangers it needs centre forwards'

"He has built his profile in part because of the association with the BBC. We live in a deeply polarised society." Matthew Syed, author and former English table tennis champion, reacts to Gary Lineker's comments. #Newsnight | bbc.in/2Ps915G

@bmay @GaryLineker

Class from @GaryLineker 👏 The BBC is making itself look lame and ridiculous, not for the first time in recent years.
