@Tales_TimeLord Who says they hate each other? Anyone who actually knows them or internet loonies? I bet it's the latter.

@Ewokisapunk @garlicbread9182 Now you really are ready things in to it.

@Ewokisapunk @garlicbread9182 Why is it a stupid thing to write?
English

This coming from the same man who wrote that you should never trust fat people
Yeah I'm not surprised

Every day I think about how RTD wrote the tenth doctor to make a joke about being “more skinny” than nine in the extended regeneration scene (Eccleston was anorexic during Doctor who). Like it’s so comically evil it’s sounds like I’m making it up but I’m not

@books_target I've got this in storage somewhere. I hated these illustrations - this is a particularly poor one, but the Auton Invasion was worse - I wrote and complained. I got very forthright letter back from Peter Darville Evans. And I can't blame him. I was right though!

@Omages887 @dcrowleyprod What nonsense. S7 showed that Who works at 4 parts and 7 parts there are no bad or boring 7 parters.
English

@dcrowleyprod Another reason why I think Doctor Who season 7 is overrated…. Only half of it is good and the other is a over bloated mess

@DPJHodges It's so strange. It's almost as if your optimism when Starmer became PM was really settling him up for a fall. A known Mail trick I believe.

It’s not just the lies and hypocrisy. The Mandelson affair has now become one of the worst national security scandals in modern British history > Mail Plus > dailymail.co.uk/debate/article…

THE SUNDAY TIMES: A STATEMENT FROM RICHARD TICE MP, DEPUTY LEADER OF REFORM UK
The Sunday Times is still crawling all my business career in the hope of dredging up some more obscure technical issues from years ago. They openly admit their "journalism" is a joint venture with a senior Labour Party activist. This smear campaign is getting ridiculous. As a result, I now appear to have a debenture slot on the front page as they rehash the same old dividend story.
The Sunday Times article features assumptions, numbers and dates that are simply incorrect. Like the rest of us, they and their Labour Party tax experts sometimes make mistakes. It is all extremely technical: good luck keeping up.
Meanwhile, the Financial Times has been busy calling up former work colleagues and advisers from my past, trying to find some dirt. This is what we, at Reform UK, are now up against.
In a highly successful career spanning 40 years, I have done business in 12 countries across three continents, and been a director of more than 150 companies. I have helped build thousands of homes, creating thousands of jobs and generating hundreds of millions of value for shareholders and investors along with many tens of millions of tax for HMRC. I am very proud of this record. Throughout this career I have taken professional tax advice and have always paid everything that I was advised to pay.
Here’s the reality: tax efficiency is a basic corporate responsibility and duty to shareholders. A long career with multiple businesses is bound to feature some errors. Naturally I am always happy to put things right and if numbers need rechecking, of course I will pay what is owed – be that more or less. It is worth noting that last time my political enemies did this to me, during the Brexit referendum, HMRC concluded that I had significantly overpaid.
It is a measure of Reform UK’s success that Establishment media is coming after me in this way. Senior elements within News UK seem very unhappy about how well we are doing. Doubtless this will not be the last time, and I will not be the last target. Certain journalists are determined to put the worst possible gloss on everything I have done.
Meanwhile they wilfully ignore the highly questionable accounting of millions of pounds in Labour Party Properties Ltd. By any objective measure, this is a much simpler and more shocking story - but we are not in the land of objectivity here.
The relentless effort to tarnish my good name is the kind of behaviour that deters other successful business people from going into politics. The consequences are very real - as we can all see with the current Labour Cabinet, which is entirely devoid of business experience. The result? A flatlining economy and dire public services. All in a nation facing humiliation on the world stage.
After several weeks of this treatment, I won’t be indulging the Sunday Times any further. I am working flat out for my constituents and campaigning for the local elections. If my primary interest were making money, I wouldn’t be giving everything I’ve got to trying to save our country.
PS: It is worth noting that we have the longest tax code in the world at circa 24,000 pages and counting, whereas Hong Kong’s is less than 500 pages.

@docoho My firs Dr (pyramids) . Baker was the face of Who from 1974 to 2005 whoever the other Drs were. The role sought him out and never let him go. Even when the story is boring (rarely) or Tom is bored he is never boring. His was the first alien. Maybe he will always be the best.

@SphereChaser @CleoWho Youre the one with Restore... (and Britain) in their name so maybe I'm not the insane one.

@justinrm666 @CleoWho If you "Empathise" with insanity, you become insane aswell.

Such a shame the range includes a Ncuti Gatwa figure - I can't abide him or his era. Being a build-a-figure set you have to buy them all, or buy none. I've made my choice; hard pass. Had the collection been all Classic Who figures you couldn't have taken my money fast enough!

@SphereChaser @CleoWho It’s fascinating how shows like Doctor Who and Star Trek, which are fundamentally built on empathy, somehow manage to make some"fans" expose their bitterness and lack of kindness and generosity

@CleoWho I'm going to sell the Ncuti, Lux & Dugadoo for £15 each, to get my money back.

Crazy how this never happens in anything they do before this ever.

🚨 NEW: Keir Starmer’s top Civil Servants Antonia Romeo and Catherline Little have known since March that Peter Mandelson failed his vetting
It contradicts No 10’s claim that “nobody” in the building knew

@martinvars @Keir_Starmer US diplomacy is a contradiction in terms
English

@Keir_Starmer The strait opened because of US diplomacy, not your Paris meeting. You excluded the Americans from the room and now celebrate as if you had something to do with it.
English

It’s good news that the Strait of Hormuz has now reopened.
This must be a long lasting and workable solution, without tolls or restrictions on routes.
Today we announced our joint plan with France and other international partners to protect freedom of navigation.
We need to see a return to peace and stability, and a permanent ceasefire.

You've got to give it to him. He's not hiding it any more.

As I tweeted yesterday - to much derision - it looks like Starmer is in the clear.
