Morecambe Poetry Festival 2022 with @lemnsissay @katefoxwriter @JTaylorTrash skdl.co/JhNnnhGBRpb

@MattChorley Bit late to worry about that. #GetBorisOut

Hello Helen, I wonder if you researched Isambard Kingdom Brunel before tweeting? Brunel's father was a French engineer and migrant. Brunel spoke fluent French, was educated at the Lycée Henri-IV in Paris and served his apprenticeship under Abraham-Louis Breguet in France.

You Sir, are the herald of the new normal. Jaded Journalist Jacks off during zoom meeting. #oneForTheTeam theguardian.com/media/2020/oct…

@AValliard @louisbarabbas Brilliant

@monkey_poet @louisbarabbas

Another day another shit show

@AValliard @louisbarabbas *stares into stringed can, shakes it* hello... *looks around* did anyone else hear...?

@monkey_poet @louisbarabbas *bellows into tin-can attached to string* Hellllllo! *string stolen by birds*

@louisbarabbas Yup, just starting to use this rather than facebook. The delay in response tells you how rusty I am at this thang x

@monkey_poet Haven’t seen you on here for a while!

Today we're #aa3. So #AAA (1970's-2013), Aa1 (2013-6) aa1 2016-7, aa2 2017-20. #HMG are financially #incompetent. Actual #debt since 2010 has risen 1,200bn, and thanks to these downgrades so have the interest rates on it. theguardian.com/business/2013/…

Reading the Sage advice to HMG from 20th sept seems clear HMG are out of their depth and too stupid to listen. At what cost? #ledByDonkeys

@JosephMeighanUK Congrats on your new role

On Monday I begin my new role as Artistic Director of the Altrincham Garrick Playhouse. After the year we’ve had, I’m so grateful for this opportunity. I hope to celebrate & highlight the importance of the Arts & our community, especially at a theatre so close to my heart.

If Coronavirus was a race ten years olds up to the age of nineteen are winning, hands down. Wonder where 10 year olds are getting infected?

Tried to show @BorisJohnson the picture of Jack Williment-Barr. The 4-year-old with suspected pneumonia forced to lie on a pile of coats on the floor of a Leeds hospital. The PM grabbed my phone and put it in his pocket: @itvcalendar | #GE19

Here’s a video of the US Senate trying to work out if Boris Johnson has been compromised by a Russian agent, while less than 24 hours later Labour gets two cyber attacks. The Conservatives still won’t release the intelligence report on Russian interference

@guardian Yup. The image is even more shocking in full. Please show how brave this person was. images.app.goo.gl/ZKR7KvC3sfAdYb…

@Simmo7484 @bendepear @ImIncorrigible @Honda_UK @Channel4News The plant was put in competition with other EU countries, but without start up costs associated with moving. Now we have pure uncertainty. Idiots led by donkeys.

This man who works @Honda_UK on #Brexit - watch @Channel4News NOW

@MsHelicat @MrHarryCole . Yes please!

MAIL ON SUNDAY - May: Back me or get Corbyn and no Brexit #tomorrowspaperstoday (via @MrHarryCole)

Tonight at 11.20 pm at the heavenly Banshee labyrinth starts my last Edinburgh fringe run. "Ten years behind the belt, and proud of it sir" It'll be raucous and fun. Runs till Friday night Xxx

⚡️ ON SALE NOW! Dr. John Cooper Clarke is coming to the @MorecambeFringe with special guests @ToriaGarbutt and @monkey_poet on Mon 24 Sep. Tickets: bit.ly/2LUokzU

@Hannah_Chutzpah @Thiefree Hahaha, I can now, and the answer is yes it's amazing. Next year in July, the morecambe festival of literature and spoken word starts! :-)

@Thiefree Paging @monkey_poet...

Three quotes to illustrate why I'm not doing #EdFringe this year: 1) "Bedbugs or no bedbugs, £4k is a very reasonable price for the Fringe" - our landlord 😤
