@Number10cat @theonlypeterkay There is always a previous tweet 🤔

👀

@UTDIMole Fulham

Name a football club without letter "E" You can’t

@NostalgicHubb S…pain

Only smart ones will get this right

@Rozzah_2210 And drew. Andrew

Everyone got paused here 🤗 What is the man's name??

@AliJaneMoore @RoyLilley Probably in about 12 weeks when all those with kids want to go on summer holidays 🤔

Seeing a lot of staff announcing their last day/s working for the NHS on LinkedIn today. Expertise and organisational memory being lost and large sums in redundancy being paid out. I wonder how long it will be until the NHS realises it needed them?

I’m trying to remember who else used these same terms…

@RobertJenrick If ever there was a case for a by-election when an MP changes parties - you make that case. You were voted in by your local voters on issues you stood on when voting occurred - as you have changed parties you have to re-stand & let your electors decide if they stand with you’

Arshad Khatana has the most abhorrent and shocking views. So why has Rachel Reeves been “friends” with this fanatic for over a decade? Why, as Chancellor, is she going round his house for lunch?

One of the greatest lecture in the world

@drkeithsiau Never found those labels in people when I was doing surgery 🤔

Human anatomy as it appears under the surface. Can you spot the obvious error?

@HSJEditor if you can’t read a scientific paper- then my top tip is to at the very least read what the authors themselves have said But thanks for the continued doctor baiting. Irresponsible and inflammatory as usual.

@Peston So focus on the actual crimes committed - the trafficking of women & children by #Epstein and the network involved & stop focusing on the #PrimeMinister - #MandelsonEpstein link & any wrongdoing will come out - focus your efforts on exposing the others….#ActLikeAJournalist

We’ve now got the spectacle of almost every member of the cabinet - chancellor, foreign secretary, deputy pm, et al , and even the ousted deputy leader Angela Rayner - putting out statements or going on TV to tell us how lucky we are to have Keir Starmer as prime minister. Which is never a good look for a prime minister. It smacks of utter panic as the good ship Labour Government heads remorselessly for the eye of the storm. Starmer’s payroll colleagues may well be right that most British people don’t want a new pm. Per contra, MPs who don’t benefit from his patronage are telling me that they have barely ever encountered anger from voters like what they are witnessing and feeling in relation to Peter Mandelson’s too-close relationship with the billionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The fury on the doorsteps and in their streets about Starmer’s unwise appointment of Mandelson to the plum job of US ambassador exceeds even what was directed at Boris Johnson during Partygate, they say. And look what happened to Johnson. This is why Labour’s leader in Scotland Anas Sarwar has just done something unique: he has called on Starmer to quit, because he fears his party will be massacred in the May elections to the Scottish parliament if Starmer remains PM. Sarwar felt he had no choice but to detach Scottish Labour from UK Labour, because Scottish voters don’t want to touch Starmer with a several-hundred-mile-long barge poll. It’s quite something for the leader of a party that is committed to Scotland remaining in the UK saying that the UK premier is a recruiting sergeant for the party, the SNP, that wants to take Scotland out of the UK. But Sarwar would say that desperate times require desperate measures. The only people laughing are the leaders of every other party.

@sophia_edw28123 My late friend & colleague @Neil_J_Smart used to opine that hands on training meant doing surgery with those who want to learn & hands on trainees (or any colleague’s) during surgery (or any clinical activity) was an abhorrence. Sadly have heard of many cases during my career 😱

A senior surgeon found to have sexually and racially harassed trainees over years, even during live operations, is back at work after a 12 month 'time out' Courts say striking him off was 'disproportionate'. Disproportionate to who? independent.co.uk/news/health/ja…

@RasmusJarlov Must have been bored during film night with his wife - felt the need for a sneaky tweet 🤔

This is exactly why countries should not buy F35s. I am sorry we did. Get out of as much American as possible that this man can use to extort your country.
