Quite aside from the logic of “where’s the cliff-edge? people will still wear clothes” AND the amazing fashion look, the analogy of no-deal being like a shot of adrenaline is apt. In that we will have put our economy into a sort of deliberate self-inflicted anaphylactic shock.
Mr Nieper of @davidnieper fashion also wants to employ only “native talent” and is a big fan of zero hours contracts. WHERE DO THEY FIND THESE NOBODIES?
“Coveted the world over”. £150, while stocks last. 😂

The toxic effect of an immigration salary threshold is that it equates “value” to a society to “making money”; it lures us into accepting that anyone making less than £30k is a drain, even though that includes the vast majority of us. It’s a national statement of self-disrespect.
By saying “oh, this doesn’t apply to you; it applies to THEM”, it stratifies an entire society, including the people endorsing such a philosophy, in a way that entrenches the notion a sportsman or a hedge fund manager are of more value to society than a teacher or a nurse.
And is doubly bitter for coming from someone whose migrant bus driver father would be considered valueless and undesirable under the criteria conceived by his own son. Although, I’m sure, even @sajidjavid finds ways to intellectualise why it somehow doesn’t mean that.

THREAD: 1. The whole May vote delay has a whiff of theatre to it which makes this imposed four-weeks before voting the cliffhanger mid-season break. Everything feels meticulously staged. My sense is a backstop time limit is already agreed; this panto is to give May momentum.
2. We saw a dry run of this before. Just like a few well-placed leaks in 2017 that “the EU is demanding £100bn as settlement” when all previous estimates had been around the £40bn that we eventually agreed to. The £100bn rumour was floated purely to give May a perceived victory.
3. Had she come to the House with £39bn to start with, it would have been shouted down. But against a fictional £100bn she can claim to have battled the EU and prevailed (and, indeed, repeatedly has made that claim precisely). And so it may be with her final deal.

Corbyn snatches defeat from the jaws of victory, yet again. What an absolute Christmas gift to a gov’t in complete meltdown, as the House rises for the Holidays.
A PM spending billions to blackmail Parliament, quite literally, into voting for her awful deal, her party in open revolt, a country in meltdown, and the Opposition (unbelievably, 4 points behind in latest polls) somehow end up in a f’kin defensive position. Couldn’t make it up.
Cue lots of people defending him and blaming THE MEEDJA, who would be screaming “RESIGN” if Cameron has said this to a female Labour MP. Indeed, were saying exactly that after “calm down dear”.

Americans want to be popular & on the edge of fashion / technology etc . That people will bring devices into theirhomes 🏡. Allowing themselves to be listened too at will .
Facial recognition selfies. Now we all know the reason behind them.Yet no one will stop using them .
People are so consumed with LOOKING good to others .. never realizing they fall into the trap of what society deems ... right .
#clothes - #homes - #cars - #schools - etc

Who are the #people telling the rest of us how & what we should have to look like we are successful.
Yet If we get mad 😡 or upset 😠 & start to ask questions —demand justice for America.Demand we stop being used for our resources. ( WELFARE )

People call use names bigot - racist - sexist - etc

They say if we love our COUNTRY we are somehow the extreme.

Hold fast & STAND 🆙

Quite often, I find myself thinking about the social norms that have been established on twitter over the years (perversely, most commonly in "anti-abuse" circles) which seem to serve no purpose but to cause horrific harm to innocent people while insisting it's for their own good
I'm bringing this up tonight not because any recent incident I've experienced or witnessed brings it to mind, but because I can't actually recall seeing any of these toxic behaviors playing out recently enough to merit a discussion of them, which hopefully means I can get into it
without having to worry MUCH about, well, the first point on the list here:
"Subtweeting."

Part of the conventional wisdom of twitter is that it is very bad and evil to ever dare "subtweet" someone. Which roughly means... to make reference to some person/event/conflict without

Aside from being appalled by the sight of pro-EU, internationalist Scots attacking a German EU Citizen’s rights campaigner (who’s an SNP member) over the last 24hrs, I think the idea stopping Brexit for the UK would make Scottish independence harder to achieve is incorrect. 1/
UKGov’s appalling treatment of Scotland, ScotGov and the Scottish Parliament so far has made the case for Indy starkly. 2/
It’s also shown that the objections many mooted in 2014 to iScotland joining the EU are far less serious that they were made out to be. The EU recognises Scotland is a pro-EU nation being dragged out of the EU against its will. 3/

(THREAD) BREAKING: The Senate has released the transcript of Donald Trump Jr.'s testimony—and it confirms he lied to Congress just has he's lied to the American people about his contact with Kremlin agents. This thread is an analysis of his testimony—I hope you'll read and share.
1/ First, understand that "agent" is a legal term. An "agent" is a person authorized by another person to act in their stead—and with their authority—in performing a task. If the authorization is for a specific task, the agent is a "special agent." If general, a "general agent."
2/ Sometimes, a "principal"—the person who authorizes an agent to act in their stead—will authorize his or her "agent" to *themselves* use new agents in the performance of their authorized task. So, Principal A may authorize Agent B to use various sub-agents to accomplish a task.
