“One of the most vile, cowardly, egregious political acts I’ve ever witnessed.”

Incredible @MeeraSyal receiving #BAFTA. Speech inspires every “othered” individual, woman & POC. Highlighting progress of diversity but lack of it in spaces where decisions are made. “those who feel because of sex, class or race their stories don’t matter. They matter.” #BAFTAS – at Glasgow, Scotland

Absolutely horrendous.
A major scandal. Heartbreaking.

There is something uniquely cold and shrivelling about closing down libraries.
Closing libraries is a retrograde step - in Scotland, a country so proud of its education and literature - we should be opening them!

All the Braverman photos show her visiting the building site of Kigali's Bwiza Riverside Estate, as if it were being built specifically to our house asylum seekers....
Helen Hogg retweeted
It isn't. It was being built anyway. It's just a Kigali housing project. And they wouldn't get to live there anyway until after they'd opted to stay and become resident. So the whole thing is just her going "THIS IS WHAT A HOUSE LOOKS LIKE." Super.

.@jessphillips can’t contain her anger at the PM and Home Secretary’s basic lack of understanding around the systems they are responsible for. More from impassioned and knowledgeable MPs who have worked outside of politics and on the frontlines. – at Seaforth, England
'She is ignoramus about the very system she's in charge of.'
Labour's @jessphillips slams Suella Braverman for her 'stupid' suggestion that migrants are manipulating the modern slavery support system.

“All this talk about processing people. Peas get processed. People don’t get processed. I find it truly offensive” — well said, @ruth_wishart #bbcqt
Jenrick, "We are going to remove people to safe third country like Rwanda."
Hislop, "The way you can still say Rwanda with a straight face is an extraordinary achievement."
Wishart, "Peas get processed, people don't get processed." #BBCQT

Has Sharp resigned yet? Have the police visited Mone yet? Has Johnson been told to pay his own legal fees yet? Have we got to the truth about LebedevJohnson yet? Has Sunak told Johnson and Truss that there will be no resignation honours yet? Or are we happy with BananaRepublic?

Great…
Now do it for every single one of the £10bn of our money that was written off on unusable, overpriced, or undelivered PPE.
Also…
Bad luck, Mone.
