Are you a stuck-in-the mud killjoy who favours foul means over fair? No? Me neither! So join me on the journey of a lifetime, where even the sky is not the limit! OK that's stretching it a bit, but do follow me for a myriad of frivolity while going all out to realise your dreams!

@CSkidmoreUK Well done for standing up for what you believe in Chris. Come on board with the Greens - the party of the future! You will be welcomed!

@carolvorders This country needs more people who are prepared to stand up for what they believe, even if it is sometimes to their cost. Go Carol!

SOME NEWS I'm leaving BBC Radio Wales. Please read why ⏬️ And thank you 🙏🏼 all of you who answered the funny questions I asked every week about old memories and daft stories. I loved them. You made me laugh so much 😃🤍 But now...onwards to the next very interesting chapter 😉

@carolvorders @RussInCheshire But how will the poor old soul cope if we stop it? There's a cost of living crisis after all. If he doesn't pay close attention to his treasure troves, who knows, he might end up having to rent out one of his palaces? 😆

I had no idea that in the Duchy of Lancashire, if someone dies without leaving a will or known next of kin, King Charles gets the money £60 million in the last 10 years. How about stopping this right now? @RussInCheshire Mum's story ⏬ £400k went to the King!!

@MartinSLewis Thank you Martin. I find this unsurprising. In fact, nothing surprises me any more! 😆

Lower inflation is welcome, but there's one thing not being said about today's 4.6% Oct figure: The big drop in energy prices is being credited. Yet this time last year all homes got a £66/mth reduction from govt. They don't this year. That's excluded from inflation figures. In practical terms then, what home's typically pay for energy has hardly dropped, so the gain households feel won't really materialise.

@tomchatfield18 Cat, would you consider joining the Green Party instead? You would be a welcome addition. 😃

@Jackiew80333500 @SuellaBraverman This appears to be an entirely reasonable & balanced comment. Please, everyone involved, do NOT do anything to undermine the message of seeking peace. Your action will then befit a day that honours those whose sacrifice helped create a society in which we remain ATM free to act.

@SuellaBraverman It’s totally appropriate that a march for peace goes ahead on armistice day

I agree with the Prime Minister. It is entirely unacceptable to desecrate Armistice Day with a hate march through London. If it goes ahead there is an obvious risk of serious public disorder, violence and damage as well as giving offence to millions of decent British people. 1/2

@premnsikka It's like the opposite of Robin Hood!

Tory War on the Poor. Boris Johnson - £157000 PM salary wasn't enough. Peter Bottomley MP - can't live on salary of £87k+exps. Kwasi Kwarteng wants £10000 a day. Statutory Sick Pay - £109.40 per week. Govt cuts real wage - median UK wage £27,168 a year. leftfootforward.org/2023/10/the-go…

@MasketyMark @ellygriffiths @LisaCuttsAuthor @VaseemKhanUK @agathachristie @Wordfest_by_Sea Awesome! Thanks Mark. Hope you get to take a holiday soon… and enjoy the book!

@JaniceHallett @ellygriffiths @LisaCuttsAuthor @VaseemKhanUK @agathachristie @Wordfest_by_Sea Hi Janice. Hope you've had a good week since Shoreham. I'm just making plans for the show I co-host with Sascha Cooper at the Caroline of Brunswick pub in Brighton (renowned as a comedy venue) and wondered if you would like to be a 'Guest of Honour l' at one show...

@JaniceHallett @ellygriffiths @LisaCuttsAuthor @VaseemKhanUK @agathachristie @Wordfest_by_Sea That's kind of you. Janice. I'm sure I will enjoy it. A holiday could be a while off though, as I am building up my Social Enterprise, the Fun And Laughter Mob, while continuing to teach. Sorry I didn't get to speak to you yesterday. I was hoping to but didn't get the chance.

@LisaCuttsAuthor @JaniceHallett @ellygriffiths @VaseemKhanUK @agathachristie @Wordfest_by_Sea Ah thank you Lisa! The panels and interviews were all fascinating. 😃

@YoungGreenParty @TheGreenParty I was at the meeting because I'm a tutor at Sussex Uni. Marking 100s of essays on CSR & 'greenwashing' since 2018 has made it clear: young people care about the environment & oppose coporate greed. We need to make them aware that they subconsciously share our mindsets & values!

💚 We've had an incredible time at @TheGreenParty Conference this weekend #GPC23 💪 We've loved seeing Young Greens engaging in our democracy from chairing plenaries, proposing motions, speaking in debates and engaging in panels. See you all again next time!

@premnsikka Absolutely, it's time to put a stop to the rich getting richer at the expense of the rest!

Treasury adviser & wealthy hedge fund boss proposes 100% tax on businesses awarding pay rises over 3% to curb inflation. Stupid proposal - penalises workers & is impractical. Inflation caused by unchecked profiteering, real wages unchanged since 2005. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

@RosieOKitty Congratulations on finishing, Rosie. Hope you don't have to long a wait for your result and that you get what you're hoping for!

Final portfolio and essay submitted! MA Comedy Writing - you were a blast!

@RosieOKitty Me too then Rosie! At least it wasn't youth-skewering! I wouldn't enjoy that much and nor would the youths!

Not knowing what ‘youth-skewing’ means probably disqualifies me, right?

@JRTerrier24 You are definitely ubiquitous James!
