Yes, it's carefully composed and a bit of a simplification. But, the point it's making is real and true.

Trump doesn't really have that much in common with Reagan. But, he does seem to agree that facts are stupid things. Why would anyone want more of them? www.scientificamerican.com/article/nasa...

The exterior of Harrods' store tells you all you need to know about their data systems NOT. #c4news

Oh good. Another MAGA reality denier. What is the point of talking to these people? #c4news

Lamp him Rex. #thearchers

Providing she STFU. #thearchers

That's plausible deniability for Rochelle, then. #thearchers

"...passed pictures depicting Mediterranean scenes towards the rotating knives..." #thearchers

Are they going to get in without Rochelle's help then? Or has Saskia bent her injured arm? #thearchers

New Private Eye out now.

That was quite a good conversation on #wato . I wish Evan Davis would do more analysis. He's pretty good at it. #bbcpm

How can the president ever be said to have a mandate to break the law? It's a misuse of the word in my opinion. #bbcpm

It does rather undermine the argument when you persistently mis-gender trans players. It makes you look rude and petty minded. #wato

Antisemitism is a terrible thing. OTOH I think people who support genocide deserve to feel uncomfortable. #c4news

Let's hope Jack hasn't inherited his attitude to girls from his father. #thearchers

Well, what a bit of (unbelievable) luck. #thearchers

Tom Archer. Subtle like a brick. #thearchers

We're banning *new* petrol car sales from 2030. Every time you miss that word out, you do the deniers' job for them. #bbcpm

It's not that carbon capture and storage isn't pure enough. It's that it's an unproven technology. I'm particularly sceptical about the storage part. Captured CO2 should be mineralised. It's not safe to store it as a gas. #bbcpm

The turnout is likely to be tiny. I doubt we'll be able to draw many conclusions regarding the national situation. #bbcpm

Ha ha.

I'm not sure I'd use the word broken. But, our system is obsolete. It's essentially a 19th century system. This is the 21st century. Root and branch constitutional change is needed. #c4news

The EU is a much more important trade partner for us than the USA. That's where our priorities should be. #thearchers

We haven't been self-sufficient in food for decades. And I, for one, would really miss bananas. And coffee. #c4news

Reeves should have reversed Hunt's last NI cut. It was an obvious trap. #c4news

You found money for bankers. You found money to buy overpriced PPI off your mates. You will soon find money for bombs and missiles. The only time you can't find any money is when our services need it. #c4news
