The Times is right. Watkins was a trustee, overseeing the directors; then as CEO he responded to whistleblowers’ revelations with over-use of lawyers warning letters to media; for accountability in aid, for the survivors’ healing, & for this *vital* organisation, he needs to go.

Alastair Stewart — very smart, kindly, professional, impartial, knowledgeable, fun, trained by the best (Alastair Burnet). Now the only person to be fired for quoting Shakespeare accurately. The only explanation can be the ITN suits wanted him out — and seized their chance.

Final speech. It was painful.
I hold in my heart the knowledge that one day I will be back in this chamber, celebrating our return to the heart of Europe.

Ah, you are lying, eh ?! Do you know how many people are in prison for just practising their Pentecoastal faith? @pigreen yes, you can be taken to prison for the faith.

Did anyone ask him why he thinks Israel shouldn't exist, and how this is compatible with the IHRA definition of antisemitism?

Speechless about the Speaker Choice

To be clear, I didn’t call a consultive referendum a “wildcat referendum”.
I don’t think anyone is suggesting a “wildcat referendum”. But there is a persuasive body of legal opinion that Holyrood has the power to hold an advisory referendum. Whether that is correct would need to be tested in court. #indyref2

I grew up dreaming of a career at the BBC & I am blessed to call this institution my workplace. But increasingly it’s starting to feel like a place that isn’t for me. I liked the @vicderbyshire show, it gave a voice to those, like me, who weren’t served by other media outlets.

I don't think massive corporations like Amazon, Delta, Eli Lilly, FedEx, JetBlue and Netflix should continue to get away with paying $0 in federal income taxes.
We're going to make them pay their fair share.
And we're going to invest in the working people of this country.

We’re removing 67m pieces of plastic by replacing tinned multipacks with plastic-free multibuys. Same value for money, just without plastic. It’s part of our goal to remove 1bn pieces of plastic by the end of this year. Find out more: tescoplc.com/news/2020/remov…

Errol Graham died weighing four and a half stone. He starved to death in one of the richest countries in the world. Ian Duncan Smith is the architect of this human misery and has been rewarded with a knighthood. @Conservatives have blood on their hands.

Trump is expected to launch his new Middle East “plan” next week.
This will put an end to any chance of a two-state outcome between Israel & Palestine.
Palestine has the right to exist. We must oppose Trump's plan.

The sad truth is the Green party aren't interested in rapid decarbonisation of the kind we now need.
History could look back at the 2019 election as UK's last best chance to decarbonise in time. Then the Greens attacked the most green platform of any party in British history.
Excited to be about to observe UK’s first major parliament-backed #ClimateAssemblyUK
It’s vital that transition to zero carbon society is done with people, not to them
