Everyone knew the birds weren't real @elonmusk . It's you we've got questions about.

Bank of England fail to control inflation through interest rises (never going to work in post COVID, highly leveraged world) so looks for something else to blame - wages. Wage growth below inflation doesn't drive more inflation! They understand the way the world works anymore.
"We cannot continue to have the current level of wage increase" Bank of England Governor, Andrew Bailey, says the current levels of price setting and wage setting are "unsustainable", after the BoE raises interest rates to 5%. trib.al/gF4NSmX 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602

Last time I ever bother ordering @McDonaldsUK through @Deliveroo. No drink delivered, pale floppy undercooked fries, wrong sauce included and all so cold it might as well have been cooked yesterday. Not sure why I expected better.

Here’s a rousing new 🎶 version of the convict folk classic “Botany Bay” adapted as a cheerio to @BorisJohnson. If you like it, you can show your appreciation by pre-ordering our NEW SINGLE out next Friday for #RefugeeWeek called “See Your Face Again” 👉 orcd.co/seeyourface

Here @RishiSunak admits that access to the EU single market is a privilege, but he's still totally against the UK being part of it...
'Northern Ireland is in the unbelievably special position - unique position in the entire world - in having privileged access not just to the UK market… but also the EU single market' 'Nobody else has that. No one. Only you guys, only here’ Rishi Sunak hails his Brexit deal

I read this as @darrengrimes testing the water because he's considering doing just that, joining a foreign neo nazi death cult. I could be wrong but that's just what it looks like to me.

Why did you block him and his 15 followers? Did he embarrass you a bit @NadineDorries ?
I think Nadine just conceded defeat…

The Milo cartoon has awful messages for kids. "Always stick to the script" "Always follow the recipe to the letter". I will avoid those in favour of "use your imagination, experiment and share your unique ideas".

Tweets like this should come with a ban from standing for election, and should also come with either a 'this tweet is false' flag or a 'this was tweeted by an idiot' flag.
Coldest day for 12 years….. so what happened to global warming? Climate zealots a bit quiet today …..

I thought this was just me and I'd accidentally liked something awful!
Twitter’s algorithms seem to have changed. I’m now constantly seeing tweets from Andrew Pierce, Darren Grimes & Sophie Corcoran - despite not following any of them. And I’m not seeing tweets from accounts I’ve chosen to follow. Have to actively look them up. @elonmusk - why?

The more I look at this, the more offended I feel.
This is the problem with attempts to have a conversation with brexiteers. They continue to push lies with no evidence to support them. Just like during the referendum.
This is the problem with attempts to define whether Brexit has been a success. The extra £350 million a week is already being pumped into the NHS.
Today is lovely Woody's last day living with us. After 5 years of the crazy boy he sadly has to move out because he can't get on with baby Lara. Time for a whole new chapter of barks and adventures little guy.

There's a bit of he said this/they said that gooding on around this stat. I'm hoping @BBCMoreOrLess can give us a definitive answer.
I’ve seen this nonsense doing the rounds on twitter. Let’s nail it. In 2016 UK GDP was 78% of Germany. This year it will be around 76%. There. Sorted.
Did Liz Truss even have time to change the wallpaper?

The chaos, the turnover of staff, the utter madness. It's just a very British mirror of what the Trump Wuite House was like isn't it?
