Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

Two of the most qualified women in the country ran for president against an unqualified, racist game show host who had a history of committing fraud and sexual abuse. And the country was basically split 50-50. That should tell us some things.

Why did we donate 2000 copies of 'The Da Vinci Code' to @davidshrigley, just for him to turn them into pulp? Inspired by an Oxfam in Swansea which had 900 copies of 'The Da Vinci Code', artist David Shrigley decided to transform those unloved books into something new 📚

Jewish Miriam Margolyes doesn't give two sh*ts about antisemitism accusations, she says it like it is, it looks like Hitler has won.

We just dropped in on Liz Truss’s pro-Trump speaking tour with a remote-controlled lettuce banner. She didn’t find it funny. 🥬

Apparently this happened at Manchester Airport after the officers pushed the mother of the boys. @gmp any comment of the disgusting behaviour of the officers. @AndyBurnhamGM @YvetteCooperMP

I am appalled at the shocking scenes and attacks on police vehicles & public transport in Leeds tonight. Disorder of this nature has no place in our society. My thanks go to West Yorkshire police for their response. I am being kept regularly updated.

We cannot let the challenges of the past define our relationships of the future. My government’s new approach to Europe, to make our country safer and more secure, starts today at the European Political Community summit.

How brave, off to support his convicted felon multimillionaire mate, when there are people queuing at food banks in his constituency. Well done #Clacton, you’re getting exactly what you voted for.

Hard to explain the relief to have a video of one of the most senior politicians in the country marching previously in pride in front of all the LGBT+ flags. I hope fervently it means better times for my trans family members and trans friends.

The onshore wind ban has been in place for 9 years. We've been in government for 72 hours, we've lifted it. That's the pace we're going to move at.
