@IanDunt George Osborne has always been a a ruthless greedy little shit with no moral compass. Every word that comes from his mouth confirms what a worthless scumbag he is. He and his so called friends just live in the same cesspit and breathe in the same sulphurous air. Vile horrors.

It's not some issue you happen to disagree with, or a quibble with an otherwise decent programme. If you do anything other than oppose Trump and his allies, you assist Putin. And you should be treated as such.

@Sveorr @MichaelRosenYes Your teacher could have learned a lesson or two about stereotyping or maybe just a plain old history lesson would have shut them up until they put their mind in gear.

@MichaelRosenYes My Politics teacher in the 1970s used to say that a miner would vote for a cow if the cow wore a Labour rosette

Michael Rosen 💙💙🎓🎓 NICE 爷爷
Am trying to remember (and failing) the idiom that people use to mean that a party could put anyone in a particular seat/constituency etc to stand in an election and they'd win - eg where there are very old party loyalties etc. What's the idiom? Expression?

These are the scenes we had under a Tory Government for 14 years. @UKLabour MUST step up to the plate and properly END FOX HUNTING FOR GOOD. RT if you agree!

I’m not saying it’s been a while since my husband watched football, but his half-time observation was “Gazza’s having a quiet game”.

Huge thanks to Shelagh, without doubt one of the UK’s great broadcasters; to Jon and Lewis, sensationally eloquent; to Shiv, my Matt and fabulous team, Natasha and all. I think we done a good thing

@LeeJone50103071 @ACoded_Word A couple of days ago he was convinced he was going to be the next Tory leader. He has the right credentials apparently.

@IanDunt I am worried about Reform. Very worried. This from a woman who has optimism bias.

First, we've no idea if that Reform number is right. Second, come on people what's the matter with you. After 14 years of the most egregious reactionary horror, we're about to get one of the most progressive parliaments in history.

I went to the polling station around 4pm to cast my vote, thinking it might be a quiet spot in the day. It was really busy. The volunteers said it’s been steady and busy all day. Possibly one of the most enthusiastic turnouts of recent times. Very encouraging! #VoteLabour

@shhhyounohoo @lewis_goodall I was having cancer treatment when Andy won Wimbledon in 2013. I was ill and weak and boy did that win lift my spirits. It meant so much to a battered wreck.
