@RishiSunak

If this is true, and it's the full 80%, then thank you @RishiSunak.

Every time I do this I get a wave of "but it's our money" or "but they did / haven't done this".

I criticise the Tories every day. I know who and what they are. But we're stuck with them for 4 more years and we need to do ALL we can to lead them the right way: Stick...Carrot...

You think I LIKE thanking the person who used blatant deceit to get Brexit over the line, knowing it would plunge the country into permanent chaos?

To everyone who got annoyed with me about the poppies thing.
My tweet obviously implied poppies are a worthy cause.
Watch this... and calm down.

Let's break it down
1⃣
Jeremy was just playing devil's advocate with his top line but I'll correct it anyway: The poppy is different because it's something we all share.
Racial inequality hurts all races. The tensions in society harm the society. We all share a need for equality.

2⃣
I say that if poppies can be treated as an moral absolute which therefore cannot be questioned, then so can equality.
Carole says poppies are not a moral absolute (i.e. can be criticised).
Then she almost immediately condemns me on the belief that I had criticised poppies.

While I'm OK with shutting schools for 1 month to make the lockdown effective, the reason I say it MUST NOT BE A DAY LONGER, is:

Those kids didn't vote for a government with a widely-known record of recklessly ignoring experts. It's time we shifted the burden off their futures.

P.S. There's a blunt way of saying that last paragraph. I chose the barely subtle way of saying it. But hear me when I say... I meant the blunt version.

Screw it.
Given a choice between:
Very bad Covid scenario for those who statistically voted for a party whose policy was to do something the entire UK medical community said would trash UK health
Vs
Ruining the education & futures of a generation who would've voted against them.

With 200deaths+50Kcases/day, millions jobless, NHS winter crisis, & #WeWillNotComply trending in Lockdown2...

Every journalist who used NHS delays to argue against lockdown, when lockdown is how you keep hospitals from being overloaded:
You should be **** ashamed of yourselves.

@IsabelOakeshott

There's literally no scientific basis for their argument.
How does letting the virus run wild mean the NHS has more capacity. Yet they argued this anyway, and now here we are. So by way of example:

That means @IsabelOakeshott should be ashamed of herself.

@Montie

That means @Montie should be ashamed of himself.

The biggest weakness in the NHS as we head into the #Lockdown2 isn't space, because we have the Nightingale Hospitals... it's staff shortages.

I sure hope we haven't done anything in recent years to alienate a group of people who statistically improve our doctor-patient ratio.

@AlisonPittard

This is @AlisonPittard from the Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine, proving that I'm not making this up.
Brexit has made lockdown one and #Lockdown2 worse.

And now Michael Gove has admitted that NHS staff shortages (which have been made worse by Brexit) are going to be the worst thing about Lockdown2.

I will not stop saying it until this fact becomes universally accepted:

If every vote in the UK was counted equally, we would still be in the EU.

One man, one vote, right?
Yet Labour got 32%votes and 31%MPs, while Tories got 44%votes and 56%MPs.

Thar translates to:
Tory voters: 1.28 votes
Labour voters: 0.97 votes
Lib Dem voters: 0.15 votes
Green voters: 0.07 votes
Brexit Party voters: 0 votes

If everyone was equal... 🇪🇺

I'm done being polite about the intelligence of anyone who doesn't understand that if huge parts of the 52% who originally voted for Brexit, don't like the Brexit we've ended up with, you can't keep quoting the 2016 referendum to justify Brexit.
