.@pritipatel - The UK can and should help provide safe passage to those fleeing war in Ukraine. Please urgently outline how Britain will provide safe and legal routes for refugees in their time of need. 38d.gs/ukraine-ol-pp

Queues? What queues? There are no issues at the Border because of Brexit. Really, there are no queues at all. That's why you don't see any coverage of the queues on the TV news folks...

To be clear, he's saying that the Scottish Tory who matters is the one chosen in London.
Jacob Rees-Mogg says @Douglas4Moray "has always been quite a lightweight figure" after he called for Boris Johnson to resign.

Complete set up. So transparent it is ‘almost’ unbelievable.
Jacob Rees-Mogg tells @IainDale that Douglas Ross @Douglas4Moray is “not a big figure in the Conservative party” – a pretty extraordinary thing to say about the leader of the Scottish party

Wow, that will do wonders for the “Conservative and Unionist Party” in Scotland…
Uber-pretentious & English MP Jacob Rees-Mogg dismissing the leader of the Scottish Tories as “lightweight” & “not a big figure” - despite Ross representing all Scottish Tory MPs. Just wow. 🍿

A lot of people like to have a go at journalists and sometimes with good reason.
But we should be really grateful for the dilligent work of @PaulBrandITV, @PippaCrerar and others in exposing these scandals.

Right, first goal is to hit 1000 RTs - can we do that by 9am? Lots of Peers in the House of Lords are deeply concerned about the Health and Care Bill- we’ve spoken to many
Let’s ask all Peers to stand up for NHS patients+staff. Pls click on my pinned tweet. Let’s hit 1000 RTs!💙
All good wishes to a woman who seems to be a reasonably decent and kind hearted person, but we could certainly have done without the ‘discreetly’ arranged unionist scarf propaganda.

Absolutely. The 'roadblock' currently thwarting #indyref2 is undemocratic. Opting for an 'easier' route & different destination to avoid WM's veto rewards their behaviour, creates a terrible precedent & avoids the FACT there's no #devomax enthusiasm in any unionist party.

#gms interview with Station Manager of Hunterston nuclear plant was conducted as if a popular landmark like Mitchell Library was closing today. No mention of @FerretScot investigation re cracks in reactor core or @scotgov renewables policy. C'mon. theferret.scot/concerns-nucl…

One of the many depressing consequences of having a PM who is corrupt, venal & deceitful is that it infects all around him. Ministers who were once presumably pretty decent are sent out every day to defend the indefensible & they do it. Where’s their self respect? #r4today

One of my friends and good pals sister, Alice Byrne, has gone missing in Edinburgh, Portobello. She's vulnerable and hasn't been seen or heard from since New Year's Eve – please please share, especially if you have any Edinburgh connections!
