Boris Johnson says ‘build, build, build’. Ok Boris. How about you reopen the
-760 Youth Centres
-1,100 Sure Starts
-600 Local libraries
-60 NHS Wards
-400 Schools
-150 Tax offices
-1,000 Post Offices
that have closed under the Tories. Would that be enough ‘build, build, build’?

Only one thought this desperately sad morning and one hashtag. #RejoinEU And you?

#FuckBrittaniaFBPE Exactly my sentiments, I'm trying to make this insider trading gem go viral!! Please re-tweet!!!

This graph begs a lot of questions. The biggest of all is this: why did they give the go ahead for the big re-opening on 4th July when they could clearly see what was happening in Leicester?

Why has this information not been made public? Inexplicable.

Not sure how many times this needs to be said, but if you’re on the left and would rather have a hard-right nationalist Tory government than an occasionally disappointing centrist Labour opposition, you may not care about poverty as much as you like to think

This should be leading the news, and @uklabour should be all over it. The government is wilfully preventing local leaders, and the public, from seeing the full picture. Their lies and secrecy helped to kill thousands in Phase 1. Now seem set on doing the same again, and worse
NEW with @AndyBounds, @sarahnev & @Laura_K_Hughes:
The UK government’s published numbers of new cases at local authority level only include pillar 1 and *not* pillar 2 cases, meaning as many as 90% of new cases are missing from the data

As #PrideMonth 2020 draws to a close, I wanted to put together this Bona forecast. Polari has been described as a lost gay language used as a form of code between members of the LGBTQ community before homosexuality was decriminalised. #PRIDE2020

Mark Francois’ letter to Michel Barnier got exactly the reaction it deserved – 12 hilarious takedowns.

Why aren’t we surrounded by ads normalising masks? Masks with club crests on them, or band names, or Cath Kidson designs? Why aren’t we seeing the words "Brought to you by the MASK MARKETING BOARD”? Posters of masked celebs? Shouldn’t that be happening?

The cases of Dominic Cummings and Robert Jenrick are closed, while I was sacked from the civil service a year ago for asking how our policies would work.

GANACHE, the rich chocolatey mixture used to top cakes, takes its name from a French word for an empty-headed fool—which in turn derives from an old word for a horse’s lower jawbone.
How did that happen? THREAD! ➡️

Johnson forced to demonstrate for the hard of thinking, through the medium of interpretive dance, what a plank he is. #BorisHasFailedBritain

If this story is true, it would represent a transformation as to how we’ve understood the role of the civil service and its head, not least that we’re not supposed to know how they’ve voted about anything.

My partner has just been forced to pay an NHS immigration surcharge of £1200 to renew her visa despite being an NHS doctor working on the front line through #COVID19. When is she going to get her refund?

Retweet if you still think Dominic Cummings should be sacked.

In 2019 one party added 4.2% to their vote share and made a net *loss* of one seat. Another added 1.2% and made a gain of 47 seats.
If parties can gain votes but lose power, or lose votes but gain power, our politics has stopped responding to the people. #ChangeTheVotingSystem
