Hey @CNN 🛑 Stop 🛑 Focusing 🛑 On 🛑 Damaged Property! The story is police becoming roaming murder squads. 😡

Since when do unelected advisors get a press conference to the nation followed by a Q&A. The UK is definetley in the twighlight zone now.

Very bold to try to blame the media when the most obviously disprovable account was written by your own wife.

If parents ‘use their instincts’, they will not return their children to school on June 1. Scientific consensus is that it’s not safe. It is also not safe for us to follow Cummings’s example or Johnson’s words. This government is now an active public health threat to its citizens
Two things: 1) totally buried that Johnson today doubled down on decision to re-open schools on June 1. Despite report from @IndependentSage saying it’s not safe, major concerns from unions & every single one of *govt’s own models* showing schools opening=R rising above 1

I'm a single parent of an autistic child. I've been locked down w/him since March. His father lives in London. He did not travel up here to care for our son, even though I was quite sick a few weeks ago. So I really resent using autism as an excuse. #sackcummings

Mainstream media spent a year telling you @JoeBiden is the most electable. He might finish FIFTH in New Hampshire after finishing FOURTH in Iowa! So if they tell you @BernieSanders can’t win, bet your bottom dollar he has the best chance of winning! #NotMeUs

Wow, just wow! Scotland’s only remaining @UKLabour MP uses his Scottish question to attack @theSNP and @scotgov rather than Tories. #longwayback

Denmark pays its students $1,000 a month to go to university and charge no tuition fees. Students are seen as an investment in the future rather than a cost.
Seriously, what is so hard to understand in that what nestles between your legs at birth means FA when it comes to discrimination , job security, violence or even death? #TransRightsAreHumanRights @jk_rowling

BREAKING NEWS - UK Govt confirms that the Dept for Exiting the EU (DexEU) will be wound up after January 31st. Another Johnson move to avoid scrutiny as this will mean no #Brexit select committee. Welcome to the new order

Hope he sees this bro. But Nate chose to not include the unprecedented smearing of Corbyn by the media for years and years as a main factor. Of course, he did include 'running too far to the left' - a bullshit theory that will be used by corporate Dems against progressives here

Anyone fancy a move to Scotland, we have plenty of room and we’re really very nice #electionresults2019

This is the real rivalry in the general election campaign. Lord Buckethead versus Count Binface in Boris Johnson’s constituency. #GE2019

🏴 There's only 1 hour left to vote in the most important election in our lifetime. Don't wake up on Friday regreting a Tory government. There's still time get to your polling station.
🗳 #voteSNP to lock the Tories out, escape Brexit & put Scotland’s future in Scotland’s hands.
