After being reinstated from a ban, this reply is priceless #TwitterMeltdown #Mastodon #WhyHaveYouNotMovedAlready – at Newcastle Upon Tyne, England

Nothing says traveling for work quite like sitting in an airport hotel room, late at night, after your flight connection missed from delays, eating some of your son's birthday cake (on his birthday) on a bed, then getting 2.5 hours sleep for your rescheduled flight at 6am. – at Hillingdon, London

HOW TO DEFEAT BORIS: all other parties should stand down in Uxbridge & South Ruislip at the next election, and let me take him down. That way he won't just lose, he'll lose in the way he deserves. #BinBoris

I leave it as an exercise to the reader to determine if my statistics is more or less bonkers than the recent Mini Budget that tanked the economy an estimated £300 billion.
I'm hoping they'll do the right thing and announce intention for general election 🇬🇧 ...reality is more likely sticking head in the sand and doing a show of force. Trying to give confidence to nation and the markets. 🤮🤡 – at Newcastle Upon Tyne, England
