The Conservative Party is actively promoting extremism in the UK.

Few understand this, but the air cover Tories get from Mail, Sun, Telegraph, Express acts as a multiplier of lies - and a giant comfort blanket - but @EdwardJDavey @Keir_Starmer, @NicolaSturgeon face a battalion of bollocks daily. The gap is immense.

Your daily reminder that COVID causes heart damage—and that premature deaths resulting from this that happen months or years down the road won't count toward COVID's official death toll.

So cocky @trussliz was making it up in the hoof for a few cheers from the golf club bores. Well shocked I am not. Looks like they are picking another non serious person to take over from the other one.

If there's one thing I think we can all learn from this whole *waves arms madly* thing, it's that public procurement processes are an obscure and bewildering mess. That, and the people of E2BN are overwhelmingly optimistic in their funding objectives.

Thanks to @calway62 for this - a press release has been issued. The Place Group will be managing the tender process for up to £70bn. There are still massive questions over how a company of 2 people could ever hope to manage that process successfully e2bn.org/cms/blog/place-grou…

Thought about this a lot last night. Even if this contract is just to oversee the implementation of £70bn, how do two people do it? How are they going to scale up in any meaningful way? Why can't this be done by the civil service?

Truss is is going to be a fitting finale to the Tory farce. It’ll be mindblowingly awful. We must leave her to sail her ship into the rocks.
We have to concentrate on what comes next. Mission? To get the #Labour party to come to its senses is over Brexit. @campbellclaret

Is the problem that nobody has the guts to tell 17.4m voters that they were so easily duped by a bunch of Brexit crooks…?

Rees-Mogg is the most loathsome Tory mascot. And *everything* that’s wrong with that vile party. Sneering toff-ness thinking it’s clever. Wealth thinking it’s superior. Bigotry thinking it’s patriotism. Dogma thinking it’s ’common sense’.
Utter tits thinking they’re statesmen.

2 August 1938 | A Dutch Jewish girl, Jeannette Groenteman, (in the middle) was born in Amsterdam.
In 1942 she was deported to #Auschwitz with her mother Lena and siblings Anne & John. All were probably murdered together in a gas chamber.

Your energy bills are so high because gas and oil giants are making such huge profits.
BP profits have tripled in the second quarter of the year to £6.9 billion - the highest in 14 years.
Remember that the next time you're told workers are greedy for wanting fair pay rises.
