I love John Major and Deng Xiaoping
Britain's growth rate in 1997 was 4.9%. 4.9%. Just unimaginable to anyone of my generation.
Completely incorrect framing to accept there a choice between poverty and low immigration. If immigration boosted the economy so much, why have 25 years of near-consecutive all-time high immigration figures coincided with completely flatlining growth? Don't play these games.
Pension and work is only one metric of economic drain and gain. I'm not concerned the present economic situation as much as the cultural one. I rather the country be economically worse off for a couple of decades to restore Britain's historic cultural identity.
Remember don't look back in anger?

I hope this isn’t implying that politicians and the press shouldn’t publicise incidents of sexual assault for fear of stoking tensions. By that logic you justify covering up the grooming gangs
And who turned up the thermostat?
Tories threw the kitchen sink at this, putting up a strong candidate and send Kemi Badenoch there on polling day. Next May's London borough council elections will be fascinating:
Bromley Common & Holwood (Bromley) Council By-Election Result: ➡️ RFM: 34.0% (New) 🌳 CON: 29.4% (-11.8) 🌹 LAB: 18.2% (-10.4) 🔶 LDM: 13.7% (-2.2) 🌍 GRN: 4.7% (-9.7) Reform GAIN from Conservative. Changes w/ 2022.
my most embarrassing take is that I thought Kamala was going to squeak by
I still can't believe Kamala lost ngl
Your evaluation of Tom Tugendhat says a lot about your understanding of Tory politics.
Entirely a product of the bizarre normalisation of blank-slatism. People try to pretend we don't on some level live in a patriarchal society. Cough up for the first date.
One of the most eye-rolling critiques of dating I hear from men my age is that it’s “unfair” for guys to pay on the first date. I’m sorry that’s just chivalry
The state is inherently violent, and thats good.
Borders are inherently violent

I spelt Zarah's name incorrectly in this tweet. This was my human error and I apologise unreservedly for that. I have written to Zarah directly to apologise to her.
Zack Polanski has defied the cardinal rule of House MD and contracted Lupus.
Amazing rally outside Waltham Forest Town Hall. This is what hope looks like. It's happening in communities all around the country. We all say we deserve better.
why is my timeline being flooded with eulogies for that guy my grampa thinks owned michael gove
YES YES YES
Read this and note. It would mean massive cuts to the state pension. The biggest losers in Argentina have been pensioners.
Wonder if this guy believes in progressive taxation.
OMFG NOOOOO!!!!! 😱 A Billionaire Is Leaving The U.K.!?!?!? 😭😭 Walk through it with me now, as i try to process this devastating loss... 🧵👇 1/n
They should make one of the movies but aim it at the Chinese audience so its just the most bloodthirsty thing ever
James Cameron says his film ‘GHOSTS OF HIROSHIMA’ will be “unsparing” in depicting the atrocities of what happened during the atomic blasts. He compares it to doing what Steven Spielberg did with ‘SAVING PRIVATE RYAN’ & ‘SCHINDLER’S LIST’ Find out more: bit.ly/GhostsDF
probably just sound and fury but I wonder if the Liberal push left has left them a little bit vunerable to Corby Worbington?
