Maybe he should try going to a mountain refugio in Spain. Maybe hand wash some socks whilst he’s there.

I was discussing holidays with a good friend and fellow academic. As he put it, thinkers don’t get holidays because they always take the basic tool of their trade with them. I know the problem.

Plenty of space to build on then. Let’s get on with it.

From rolling chalk downs, rich #grasslands, and #wildflowermeadows, our county has so much to offer.
That’s why it is so important for us to continue to protect our #greenspaces from unreasonable development. Find out more cpresurrey.org.uk/get-involved/

musk's basic problem is that twitter was not being run by lefty sjw types surpressing free speech, it was being run by business people who were trying to make money. with the same aim he'll end up trial-and-erroring his way back to their exact policies

There is no fiscal black hole, whether of £50bn or any other sum. Instead there is a wholly unnecessary rule that all politicians seem beloved of that during a recession a government may not borrow to keep essential services functioning during a recession. Why are they so stupid?

If you stand in a big long line in a pub, snaking out of the door, I will just stroll past you all, stand at the bar and order my drink. Why you’ve started this nonsense of queuing like this I don’t know, but it needs to stop.

The hilarious tragedy of Elon Musk is he really wants to post but he can’t. The man can’t post. It’s not in his blood and it never will be. He can spend all the money in the world and he’ll never be a poster. The real ones know exactly what I mean.

On the first day of Islamophobia Awareness Month, I find out I have been dismissed through Twitter.
That is unacceptable.

My prayers are with @trussliz and her family following her resignation, and I give thanks for her public service to our country. We should always be grateful to those who take on the great and difficult responsibilities of leadership.

Everybody literally loves you. You are so lovable. Your ideas matter. They’re interesting and unique. People love hearing you talk+ they’re so engaged with you. Your confidence, beauty and brains is so attractive. You are inspiring. You don’t have to try, just being you is enough

I grew up in Leeds around the same time Truss did. Leeds in the mid 90s was great. Yes, it had it’s problems as any city does, but if she spent her teens or early 20s there in the mid 90s and came away thinking it was shit then the problem was with her, not the city.
Quote Tweet
Absolutely fascinates me that Liz Truss has made “I grew up in Leeds and it was shit” the cornerstone of her political message

How does Kanye West still have a Twitter account? Surely the blatant antisemitism is enough to get him kicked off. He’s vile.

Wait, so Liz Truss is good now? This is all very confusing.
Quote Tweet
Widespread dismay at the fact that 3 years of work has effectively been put on hold. No one asked for this.
C4 sale, online safety, BBC licence feee review - all signed off by cabinet all ready to go, all stopped. If Liz wants a whole new mandate, she must take to the country. twitter.com/LizzyBuchan/st…

I thought Liz Truss was barefoot and in pyjamas at first glance here and now I am having Strange Urges.
it absolutely possible to think that police are too quick to use unnecessary force, have too many powers, and desperately need reforming, and also that the rollerblade kid is a muppet. these are not mutually exclusive.

Absolutely right. The rollerblader got exactly what he deserved.

i’ll die on the hill that the rollerblader was the one in the wrong and that the cops reacted completely proportionally

Ukrainian soldiers transformed this Peugeot cabriolet into a stripped down battle-buggy complete with bull bars and a space for a machine gunner...
Always good to see organisations promote talent from within rather than hire externally!

In one of the most seamless transitions ever seen, Shadia Edwards-Dashti moved straight from a six year stint at the Kremlin propaganda channel RT to the "Stop the War Coalition". She served the Kremlin right up to the invasion of Ukraine. twitter.com/CpbManc/status…

Kwarteng is Chancellor Of The Exchequer, not Home Secretary or London Mayor or Metropolitan Police Commissioner. What could it be about black man Kwasi Kwarteng that's prompted you to single him out, Daniela, you racist?
