Chairman of @marksandspencer Archie Norman @therealarchie tells me on @TimesRadio that Brexit means they've had to hire a warehouse just to store the paperwork needed to export to the Republic of Ireland….

I remember when the working class had more self respect than to let posh privately educated pricks brainwash them into being racist or believing mad conspiracies. They profit from your bigotry for fucks sake. They’ve got you fighting culture wars so you don’t start a class war.

Haven’t watched a full episode of #BBCQT in years. Most enjoyable to watch Farage getting his arse handed to him by Campbell over Brexit. But the star turn was this guy.

Britain has record levels of poverty and record levels of ill health. It's almost as if the two were somehow related.

Labour is hiking taxes on billionaires.
Don’t be distracted by the farmers protesting in Westminster. Inheritance tax on farmland means the super rich will pay their fair share.
Here’s who’s most affected:

A handful of billionaires now have unprecedented control over banking, the food we eat, the health care we can access and, now, the information we receive.
This is what oligarchy looks like.

1/ X's algorithm was changed in mid-July 2024 to systematically boost Republican-leaning accounts and Elon Musk's own account following his endorsement of Donald Trump, according to a newly released computational study of engagement from the Queensland University of Technology.⬇️

Strikes me that though he seems cautious as fuck, Starmer has balls of steel. I mean, who takes on these vested interests in the face of the media? Landowners, private schools, landlords, exploiters. Who *does* that ffs? So long overdue everyone's in shock it's really happening.

Astonishing how many people are slagging me off for being critical of X and Musk. We live in an age of pitiful clothcap-doffing unctuousness.

Just got this message on Bluesky. What is echoed there is not opinions, but the mutual respect with which they are exchanged.
"I would say one of the best pros is that as a conservative I have engaged many liberals and most people have been very open to conversation. It overall just seems more civil and like what conversation or sharing your cultural beliefs and values should be like."

Gareth Wyn Jones, a distressed farmer, has a net worth of £25 million and earns £3 million a year from his YouTube efforts to plead poverty on behalf of his colleagues.
Perhaps Jo Coburn could have mentioned this.
Google him.

I made the decision to transition to the other place only this afternoon. Already - it's like old Twitter.
And then I saw this...
There's a massive shift going on!
Follow me there - I'm trying to find my tribe!

An extraordinary moment. Guardian to stop publishing on Twitter theguardian.com/media/2024/n…

As a state school teacher it’s a shame you didn’t stand up for them when your own party were imposing crippling funding cuts over the last 14 years.
When will you and your party apologise for what you’ve done instead of creating unnecessary fear with outcomes that aren’t going to happen.

If this was about a former Labour not Tory politician it would be all over the news by now. The double standards are sometimes mindblowing
NEW: Queen Elizabeth II thought Boris Johnson "better suited to the stage" than politics and two days before her death, after he resigned, she told a senior courtier in jest: "At least that idiot won't be organising my funeral." 1/ thetimes.com/uk/politics/art…
