I don’t understand why people think memes of number 10 looking like a Londis is funny - is it about shaming people? I’m extremely proud that my parents had a shop. They grafted 24/7, 365 days a year for 30 years so my sister and I could have the life we have today.

Honestly, someone should take advantage of this chaos and colonize England.

Worth considering this could be exactly the end game Boris Johnson had in mind when he endorsed a weak candidate he could see would quickly and irredeemably fail. Whilst it may look like a shambles from the outside, it might just have been playbook politics…

Still the thing that has led to all this political unraveling, that has karmically imploded the Tories, is left at press conferences unsaid, unasked about. I’ll give you a clue. It starts with a B and rhymes with shit.

There's no other way of saying it: The British people are being betrayed by their @Conservatives government.

I have a joke about trickle down economics. 99% of you won’t ever get it.

NEW: income inequality in US & UK is so wide that while the richest are very well off, the poorest have a worse standard of living than the poorest in countries like Slovenia ft.com/content/ef265420-45e8… Essentially, US & UK are poor societies with some very rich people. A thread:

Dear @trussliz / @RishiSunak the cost of living crisis has left millions worried how they'll make ends meet. I'd like to formally invite you, as the new PM, to join me asap once you take office for a special hour's @itvMLshow discussion/Q&A to answer/ease people's concerns.

Emmanuel Macron: "France & the UK are friends. In a world with growing illiberal, authoritarian and destabilising powers, if you [implying Liz Truss] can't tell whether France and the UK are friends or enemies, we're going towards some serious problems."

Here's exactly what Macron just said replying to the Truss "friend or foe" comment (my Eng subtitles 👇) (although I think his silence and look when asked the question says it all 😀👇)

LEAKED AUDIO: Liz Truss calls Brits lazy and admits that the Brexit referendum was won on lies about immigration and the EU.

Trans women are women. If you are picturing someone trying to gain some underhand, unfair advantage then you may need to reconsider that mental image. Trans people are like each of us. They want to play sport, enjoy its benefits and be just as crap as the rest of us!
