@The1Apostate Lots of denial here. I’m sure plenty of people in the UK support Trump. However, the majority think he’s a laughing stock, or worse. That’s not due to MSM, Woke Agendas or anything else, it’s based on listening to him speak.

@JamesJa40545119 @gary40757178 @PSOSEdinburgh It’s definitely a right wing thing. Right wing newspapers, such as the Daily Mail and Telegraph, are vociferously anti-cyclist. It’s become yet another culture war issue.

@gary40757178 @PSOSEdinburgh Imagine thinking this is a RIGHT wing thing. Proper proper bad people you left wing voting lunatics. Please go live on planet Saturn (satan)

A 37-year-old man has been arrested and charged with the alleged assault of a 34-year-old male cyclist on High School Wynd, Edinburgh, on Friday, 20 September 2024. He is due to appear at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Monday, 23 September 2024."

@bgrey62253 @LNER They used to cancel the HST under the same circumstances. They don't want to risk having a set marooned in the north of Scotland, leaving them short on the ECML the next day.

@LNER What do azumas not like our weather. Rusted even more. Hsts managed ok.

Due to weather forecast over the next 24 hrs, there will be no services between #Edinburgh & #Aberdeen/ #Inverness all day TOMORROW, Thurs 7 Dec Please see here for the most up to date information: lner.co.uk/travel-informa… We’re sorry for the inconvenience this may cause. (1/3)

@NamiHusky @BBCR4Feedback @BBCRadio2 Come on now. Ken left of his own accord, and took PopMaster, which he owns, with him.

We're following the story on @BBCRadio2 as it makes alterations to its presenters and music - but what do you think?

@mrob1960 @ThomasCutter Maybe Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft by The Carpenters.

@ThomasCutter That would be brilliant Tom, I think it'll be one of 3 How does it feel by Slade Music by John Miles Sierra by Boz Scaggs let's see. #popmaster

I'd love for Slade 'How does it feel' to be the final post-popmaster song tomorrow. The definitive one for me! #popmaster

@Christi25827426 @RealKenBruce Ken hasn’t been axed, he chose to move to another station, for more money.

@RealKenBruce I think the same thing happened to Steve Wright in the afternoon show after 25 years of loyal service it would appear they always axe the most popular shows on Radio and Tv 📺

I will be presenting my last show on Radio 2 next Friday. I had intended fulfilling my contract until the end of March but the BBC has decided it wants me to leave earlier. Let’s enjoy the week ahead!

@Adam_L_F_C @JamesMerry17 @RealKenBruce I don’t think Vernon Kaye fulfils any of those criteria.

@JamesMerry17 @RealKenBruce Obsessed with diversity more like. They will be in a rush to fill his slot with a talentless, androgynous, pluralised, blue haired, history destroying quim that associates as turnip.

@Hyperoptic Hi, I raised a ticket last Tuesday, but haven’t received a response yet. Could you check this for me please?

@SoEnergyUK Hi, I had an electricity smart meter fitted 2 weeks ago, but the IHD is still displaying demo data, despite switching it off and back on every couple of days. Can you check this for me please?

@j_sapier Single, no friends mentioned by name. Doesn’t sound ideal.

#popmaster Bye Jim. Cheer up lad.

@TugForelock @AndrewBooton @BBCRadio2 1985? A lot has changed in the intervening decades.

@KEdge23 @EmmaKennedy So why do recessions, with the exception of the 2008 global financial crisis, always seem to happen under the Tories?

@EmmaKennedy The economy is safer with the Tories. Fact. We’ve been through a global pandemic but the economy is now firing on all cylinders, with the fastest growing economy in the G7 and forecasted to stay like that for the next year or two. Labour would have closed businesses at Christmas.

@miura5 @13sarahmurphy Similar to, say, a Brexit t-shirt, or a Brexit mug, it's a tea towel with Brexit on it. Surely that's blindingly obvious?

@13sarahmurphy What on earth is Brexit tea towel?

You can wrap yourself in🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧flags, sing the national anthem 5 times a day, have pictures of the queen in every room, use crown stamped pint glasses and Brexit tea towels… but real patriotism comes from being a country people admire, not one misgoverned by nationalistic bellends.

@BosPhill @thegordonkerr @RepThomasMassie The UK has a population of 66 million. I'd be very surprised if any country that size *didn't* have at least one stabbing per day.

@thegordonkerr @RepThomasMassie That’s why UK has the biggest problem with nife crime. Someone gets stabbed every day.

Merry Christmas! 🎄 ps. Santa, please bring ammo. 🎁

@LewisPa48487861 @theJeremyVine People with cancer are definitely already sick, but Gina thinks that they should take precedence.

@patpryce @c_washington @davidschneider @JaneyGodley You can argue all you like, but it has already been established, in court, that we *do* owe this money to Iran, the country. Presumably, at least some of it came from Iranian taxpayers in the first place.

@nkthomson @c_washington @davidschneider @JaneyGodley I think it’s arguable whether we owe anything to this scumbag regime. But the risk I fear is that by paying a ransom we put the rest of our intelligence community at risk

@patpryce @c_washington @davidschneider @JaneyGodley My feelings are irrelevant. Iran thinks we owe them the money, the courts agree, but we won't pay, so after decades of waiting they've decided to play hardball. It should never have come to this.

@nkthomson @c_washington @davidschneider @JaneyGodley Are you happy that these evil people are treating it as ransom?

@patpryce @c_washington @davidschneider @JaneyGodley They can treat it as whatever they like. Fundamentally, it's still a debt.

@nkthomson @c_washington @davidschneider @JaneyGodley Jeremy Hunt 🤣 My issue is that the Iranians are treating it as ransom

@patpryce @c_washington @davidschneider @JaneyGodley theguardian.com/world/2021/nov…

@nkthomson @c_washington @davidschneider @JaneyGodley Bloody hell

@patpryce @c_washington @davidschneider @JaneyGodley If the Taliban remained in power for some time, yes, I’d give them the money back, if they started agitating for it, since they’re now the de facto government. Especially if they started kidnapping British citizens as leverage.

@nkthomson @c_washington @davidschneider @JaneyGodley It was a coup. Hardly the same! Imagine if we had taken an order for tanks from the Afghan government. They had paid us in advance. Then the Taliban overthrow the government ask for the money. Would you give it to them?
