When will someone among the women on the Apprentice wear clothes and footwear and make up that reflects reality? Why are we promulgating this bollocks about what ‘being in business’ looks like. This is the most gendered crap ever. #TheApprentice – at Bristol, England

Sewage flowing into the sea at Cornwall today. You'll be glad to know that new Environment Secretary, Therese Coffey, voted to allow water companies to continue doing this.

The rise of Suella Braverman is one of the genuine mysteries of modern politics. She has no discernible charm, intellect or talent and projects cruelty like toxic radiation. Shame on any leader who puts her within a mile of power.

There was a distinct & presumably deliberate sense in Sunak's speech that he recognised some of the horrors of the last two administrations and was determined to avoid them. Instead, he's reappointed them

Class boots from @PMullin7 👏 Designed to oppose this government and its attacks on working people. But his club @Wrexham_AFC have banned them. RT if you support Paul’s right to wear these on the pitch ❤️👊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Boris Johnson is, by some distance, the worst thing ever to happen to British politics. A serial liar, a proven cheat, an enemy of common decency. If he has finally buckled under the weight of his own depravity, none of his supporters should be allowed to forget their complicity.

Absolutely and no wonder they clamour for PMs job, if Lizz Truss goes after only 6 weeks in office she gets a guaranteed £115k a year pension for the rest of her life 😡
So do we have mass protests until there's a general election? Can we do that now?

The interest rate set by the Bank of England may now peak at 5% rather than 6% - IF all goes to plan with Jeremy Hunt’s unwinding of that mini-budget’s tax cuts today and imposition of public spending reductions in two weeks. 2/20

Dear @Jeremy_Hunt pls put in place an emergency mortgage plan for regulatory intervention that protects mortgage holders from the impact of likely sharp UK rate rises. Eg - Loosening remortgage affordability rules - Flexibility in terms - Payment holidays - Stronger forbearance
