The PR company Michelle Mone paid to "rescue her image" has dropped her!! Here's some free PR advice ⏬ 1. Pay back the money you've taken as a Pandemic Profiteer. 2. Say you're sorry 3. Give a multi million pound donation to an NHS Charity on top. Cos only that could even begin to rescue your image. RT if you agree

Striking fr Tory MP @timloughton on lack of legal asylum routes. “I’m a 16yo orphan from an African country escaping a war zone & religious persecution. I have a sibling legally in UK at moment. What is the safe & legal route for me to come to the UK?" xitter.cf/BestForBritain/status/…

Would be nice to see this hit a million views before he actually hits the road…
James O'Brien lists the 'worst' of Boris Johnson. 'While the rest of us have been reeling with disgust and horror at what this man has done to our democracy, Liz Truss has been taking notes.' @mrjamesob

Without the North Korean style MailExpressSunTelegraph axis Johnson would have been ditched already. That they continue to prop him with such slavish and dishonest coverage merely delays the inevitable. But my God what a weird sense of Britain it all conveys to the world.

I’ve just binged on the masterly Butler to the World by @OliverBullough It deftly tells of how UK banking facilitates a squalid below stairs money laundry for anybody with cash, from criminals and tax dodgers to…Russian oligarchs. It couldn’t be more timely.

Seeing the interview in its entirety is sickening, but at the same time the bullying & patronising nature of it is getting plenty of coverage for what is the most crucial time for our future existence on this planet. Only one person came out of this well & that’s Miranda Whelehan
Fantastic responses to some pretty shocking "interviewing" 👏 #DontLookUp #RichardMadeley @GaryLineker #JustStopOil

Let's be clear - if you're avoiding or evading tax, you're taking money out of the pockets of people who need it. We can't let Tory MPs get away with weaponising feminism to defend this daylight robbery, while people can barely afford to heat their homes. Me on @BBCRadio4

thread 1/13 Putin's risk appetite is far greater than we realised. We are deluding ourselves (I was too complacent and thought he wouldn't go this far) So forget the stirring talk about Western unity and a revived spirit of purpose in NATO.

Human being meets robot.
Trevor Phillips shares his experience during lockdown, when one of his daughters was very ill. She died not long after the funeral of Prince Philip, when it is alleged that those working for the govt met despite COVID rules. #Phillips trib.al/mp2Z2d3

As a reporter I’ve covered multiple genocides. @POTUS in the 90s you saw Bosnian war from the civilians’ POV. Now, I ask you #SpeakToSyrians to understand the human toll of the Syrian war. @MichelleRTaylor. I nominate @IM_pulse @jeniferfenton @_AGilmour @elizrael to join + tag 2

Something pathetic about dozens of middle-aged not very bright men and women (Tory MPs) tweeting cut and paste joy and expecting congratulations for taking away the rights of young people to travel, work and live in some of the greatest, safest, most prosperous countries on earth

Socially-distanced jury trials will fail to clear the huge backlog in the criminal courts. One option: requisitioning London theatres. 'You can imagine some of our criminal barrister friends loving that' My latest - economist.com/britain/2020/0…
