It's time..

Get ready for a thread that may never actually end.

It's really important we document every lie that Boris Johnson tells and put it in 1 easy to read Twitter thread to reference them to anyone not paying attention.

The Telegraph apologised & corrected his claim.

theguardian.com/politics/2019/…

He was sacked for his lies.

beta.washingtonpost.com/news/worldview…
Boris Johnson also lied about there being enough Glucose & Whey for Mars to make chocolate in the event of a No Deal.

Boris Johnson lied repeatedly during the referendum campaign about how Britain can't make her own rules..

Johnson said a No Deal brexit means we get £39 billion back.
We don't get anything back & the figure is £33 billion now, because article was extended.

So how did vote leave cheat?
What was this extra money spent on and can it be justified?

Ah I didn't fall for any of that, I hear you say..

Let's see.

Thread:👇
Vote leave overspent by £675 000. Aaron Banks contributed £8 million in money he can't account for.

The purpose of this thread though is more focused on the £675 000 as it's easier to show how this money was used.
It's important to understand this was all spent at the end of the campaign when they had the biggest gains in the polls.

This involved facebook ads and also they campaigned on facebook even when both campaigns were supposed to be taking a break because of the death of Jo Cox.

Let’s talk about Boris

One of most disreputable, toxic, selfish politicians I’ve ever met. As Tories choose between British Trump & ex-Health Sec who’s mission was to destroy health service, let's remember why #Johnson is #UnfitForOffice
[Many threads]

Razakars: Part 2
Leader- Kasim Rizvi "Himmler of Hyderabad"

Muslim Razakars pack their bags & guns to go “Hindu-hunting”. Anyone who spoke Telugu, Marathi or Hindi was an open target for these “soldiers of Allah”

Note: @asadowaisi is grandson of Abdul Wahed, a Razakar

Razakar movement:

In 1947 the first State which posed the problem to the newly formed Union Government was State of Hyderabad- that had more Hindu population (93%) than the Muslim population but was ruled by the Nizam a Muslim

93% Hindus yet we were helpless

If I may, a short #thread.

I was raised an atheist. As a young adult, I fell in love with the Easter story and with Jesus, and I came to faith. I am now a Catholic.

I have two MAs and a PhD in theology and religion

and I am a socialist 1/
In one of the graduate programs where I teach, I do a semester course on the Old Testament, and a semester on course the New Testament.

The students who take them end up reading around 90% of the entire Bible, and I re-read it along with them.
Leviticus 19 tells us in absolute terms that the productive in society are bound to share and protect the poor and the vulnerable. That’s the “gleanings of the field” passage. The edge of my field does not belong to me, but to the hungry.

A #thread about what has and has not worked for me since launching my first startup in Feb 2002 with my brother, striking some big deals, raising capital, losing money and rebuilding.

I hope you find it thought-provoking
We built some hype around @realvibez with our branded car, sponsoring events like Stages, ATI, Blink and Reggae Sumfest but we also knew that we had to be authentic - the website actually had to have the content on it
We did not want sugar-coated B.S. interviews so we focused on cold, hard truths when I asked questions.

Hence why I asked Collie Buddz about racism in this interview -

2nd #Thread of responses from women in aerodynamics to the question, 'what do you currently see as being the major obstacle to women entering your field?'

Responses incl gender career stereotypes from an early age, lack of self-esteem and lack of female role models #WomeninSTEM
1. "I think that there is not enough awareness of female role-models in my field. There need to be more initiatives that allow young women to connect with female role-models so that they can be inspired and motivated to follow in their footsteps."
2. "Discouragement from teachers in high school to pursue a STEM career and an unwelcoming atmosphere in technical universities."

Are you one of those people who's looked back on 2017 and convinced yourself that you haven't achieved anything? Worried about catching up with your mates who seem to have done much better?

Let me tell you a story about #time.

A thread 👇
A long #time ago, back when I was about twelve or thirteen years old, my parents travelled to Uyo.

Before leaving, my mother asked me to prepare Edikang ikong soup so she and my father would eat when they returned.
When I was finished with the soup, it was supposed to look something like this:
