Shame on him bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…

@classic_shows Couldn’t be more disastrous!

We are saved 😁😁

@Andrew_Adonis Everyone, even the monarch, is entitled to their opinion or we don’t have free speech. There is one very good reason to have a constitutional monarchy which is that people like Hitler and Putin get elected in and then change the rules. HRH outranks them safely.

I have never seen a briefing operation by Buckingham Palace against a prime minister similar to the one in the Sunday Times King Charles III is going to be a wholly different and more politically interventionist monarch to his mother

Very sorry to hear about the Queen. Long live Charles the Third Time Lucky, we hope :)

Dear @trussliz / @RishiSunak the cost of living crisis has left millions worried how they'll make ends meet. I'd like to formally invite you, as the new PM, to join me asap once you take office for a special hour's @itvMLshow discussion/Q&A to answer/ease people's concerns.

Tragic news The latest @CornwallInsight prediction, based on Ofgem's new methodology, is an 81% price cap rise in Oct (taking typical bill to £3,582/yr) and a further 19% in Jan (so £4,266/yr) Action & planning is needed now. The zombie govt needs wake up sooner than 5 Sept...

If u are a company or institution you need very seriously to revisit your links to stonewall! Any organisation suggesting 2yr olds are gender non conforming (whatever the hell that is anyway - I spent all my youth with short hair, up a tree playing with lads) is to be questioned

Question I'd like all potential Conservative leaders to answer (RT if agree) The energy price cap's predicted to rise 64% in Oct taking a typical bill to £3,244/yr; & rise again in Jan to £500/yr more than when May's help package was announced. What'll u do to avoid this & when?

@MartinSLewis I wish you were Chancellor.

It's horrendous. Especially as we're now near the end of the assessment period that sets Oct's cap, so this is the right ball park. The Oct prediction is now £450/yr HIGHER than Ofgem mooted in May & that was what Sunak based the £400-£1,200/yr help on. More will be needed!

NEWS: I feel sick writing this! I've just got the latest price cap predictions from @CornwallInsight. A huge spike in the key year-ahead wholesale price means OCT cap prediction UP 64% (so £3,244/yr on typical bills) JAN cap prediction UP 4% (so £3,363/yr) /contd

@ChrisGPackham @BillOddie @RSPBEngland I think I saw a hummingbird in my East Sussex garden. Is this possible? I got it on video.

@BorisJohnson @RishiSunak @KwasiKwarteng Incentivise renewables. Help people set up local energy generation groups. Get the British public helping feed the grid like Dig For Britain in the war. Bring that back for food too. The people will rally and respond.

@BorisJohnson @RishiSunak @KwasiKwarteng Ps. I meant cap fuel and reduce the energy cap. Why can’t you control it? Why is the oil price global? Can that be rethought? China, Russia and OPEC are beating us at Monopoly. The only way out is change the rules or throw the game.

@BorisJohnson @RishiSunak @KwasiKwarteng why can’t you cut all fuel taxes and cap fuel and energy prices? That would help every citizen and business and we would avoid recession and have a chance of growing. The lost revenue from fuel tax offset by revenue from thriving business.

@BorisJohnson @RishiSunak @KwasiKwarteng If you stop taxing fuel/energy you help to solve a lot of business problems eg transport, production and food/materials costs that would put a rocket under British industry. Little plasters won’t work. Think BIG. Help everyone.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called on people worldwide to gather in public to protest and show support for his country as it marks one month since Russia invaded. Read more: itv.com/news/2022-03-2…

@FuryofKahless @10DowningStreet The people in Russia have no choice. This is Putin’s war. Never has there been such a situation where taking one person out of the equation would change so much. Never have there been so many ways to remove a person eg drones. After Salisbury what is the moral difference?

@sam__batt @10DowningStreet Russia has to pay for all the destruction in Ukraine

@AnneLai31821380 Oh the Grand old Duke of York… he had inappropriate relationships… When he was up, he was up. Now he’s hiding at the top of the hill. Bet he wishes he had 10k men. #PrinceAndrew #Epstein #GhislaineMaxwell

Prince Andrew has "Crown" Immunity "??? WTF??? I will say it again time to stop funding this over privileged family and stop tugging our forlocks at an institution that doesn't give a monkeys plonker about us yet depends on our loyalty as" subjects "

@BorisJohnson it’s a fulcrum moment. Don’t just think as far as your political term. Act NOW and save the troops you’ve already sent and protect the Afghan people and our safety and our international standing. 200 extra men can’t survive - don’t sacrifice them.

@BorisJohnson #Afghanistan how many people died/were raped while I write this? If you don’t send a significant force now, how many will be dead/traumatised by Weds? Do you want this to be your legacy? What would #Churchill have done? You need to lead the UK and the US on this.
