Buttigieg fires back at Trump: ‘Despicable’

It’s all beginning to feel a bit 1984. We’re in a battle against autocrats and oligarchs who are using money and misinformation to dismantle democracies. That’s why we’re looking for 1,984 new monthly supporters to make our biggest and boldest plans a reality (see link in bio)

🔥🔥

Do we have 28 (29) days in February to help us get over the misery of January 🤔

"What happened?" "I’m stuck. It's so embarrassing." “I guess things went... a-rye?” “Please do shut up.” "You should get out of the sun." "Why?" "Otherwise, you'll be toast." "You're an asshole, Charlie." “You’re right, you deserve butter.”

Sounds like a plan

It's been quite something to watch supposedly 'patriotic' British newspapers actively cheerleading on a foreign administration that is openly working against our interests.

There are around 10k private school kids in Edinburgh. 51 have moved to state schools in January. As I've repeatedly said the effects of VAT on fees are going to be minimal. www.thetimes.com/article/ab42...

No snow in Leicester today but I am beginning to think I should have spent the day building an Ark 🌧️🌧️🌧️

So Reform are holding a conference in Leicester tonight. A highly diverse and tolerant city. What a bizarre choice. And for anyone that wants to dis Leicester, it like many places are struggling after the last 14 years but that is not because of its cultural make up.

Gavin and Stacey really was a fabulous tv series

This is a person who Kemi Badenoch thinks should sit in the House of Lords. The tweets start in 2009 - Young was 45 at the time. Appalling misogyny, casual homophobia... the lot

That Friday feeling

I adopted a dog from a blacksmith. As soon as I got him home he made a bolt for the door!

40,000 people are liable for the Farmers Inheritance Tax. 0.06% of the UK. Such a small group they aren't even worth mentioning once. Except of course it has 21 billionaires and 1500 people with £100m+.

In a few hours time, Fiona Bruce will defend having Nigel Farage on #Bbcqt for the 38th time, by saying "He's an elected MP. We have to invite him"... ... as if Question Time's constant platforming of him for years, isn't part of the campaign that made him an MP. 😑

Sparrows

The headline: “Whitehall reverts to working from home” The reality: “The average attendance rate across departments from the period last year was 57 per cent, while this year it is 69 per cent.”

Semi-skimmed milk is "left wing" says Nigel Farage, confirming once and for all what an utterly absurd, whinging, out of touch, irrelevant frog-faced bellend he is.

Never forget what the CON-PARTY did to us.

Kemi’s mother travelled from Nigeria to the UK to give birth in St Teresa's private hospital before the British Nationality Act 1981 abolished automatic birth-right citizenship for those born in the United Kingdom, and then returned to Nigeria shortly after Badenoch was born.

Oodie’s - perfect cat bed on a cold day

Can anyone help me understand ‘cat’ this morning. He’s been fed and watered, offered the chance to go outside or stay in and have a cuddle and I’m still being meowed at and looked at as if I’m a bad cat mum.

This morning I have decided to listen to the wind and rain from my bed. It also mean the sparrow hawk tucking into a pigeon in my garden can have a stress free picnic.

Nigel Farage getting all upset over Jaguar is hilarious, must be such a concern for his constituents!

Why are lots of Newcastle football supporters following me? I don’t know one end of a football pitch to another, completely clueless ⚽️

Has Jeremy Clarkson commented on Jaguars rebrand yet, once he gets over paying less IHT than most he’ll 😡🤯

Please take care this Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Phishing emails increased by over 230% in the UK last year. Remember if it looks too good to be true it normally is. Always go directly to the company website rather than clicking links.

We have had a press briefing with senior police officers and commissioners about the ongoing investigations into the riots that followed the Southport attack Here are the key updates: 🚨1,590 arrests, 1,015 charges 👮‍♂️17% of those arrested were children, 46% were 18-35 years old

You have to admire Nigel Farage - who else would have the nerve to pretend to be the defender of farmers, after selling their whole industry down the river with his Brexit shitshow.
