[thread] on the utter state of this
So really simple questions

And there are so so many

Why are concerns over race, gender and sexuality put into air quotes e.g. "fashionable"?

Is "fashionable" meant as a derogatory?

Who are you selling this shite to when you write it this way?
When did the government become "too focused" on race, gender and sexuality issues?

Define "too focused" ?

Will now "pivot" - what you mean from today 17th December 2020?
Why could you not focus on "poverty and levelling up" at the same time as equality issues since some of these issues go hand in in hand after all?

Who and what are you "levelling up" from?
Your reminder of course

Of the words of an amoral cheating lying racist nativist fucking charlatan

The British Prime Minister

Your reminder

Liz Truss

When asked a simple question on austerity

COULD NOT ANSWER

Your reminder

The legacy of a decade of Tory rule

And of course

Liz Truss who CANNOT explain how brexit will be better

Whether that be on Japan

Or India

All Liz is concerned about is peddling any shite

For self and career

[thread] an intro from

August 13th 1949 Miss M. Roberts

"Once they saw a Conservative Government in power they and all Young Conservatives up and down the country would be able to say with Keats. “Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive, but to be young was very heaven.”"
Kidding

It doesn't

It works for Richard Desmond

"Mr Desmond had sent Mr Jenrick messages ahead of the approval telling him that “we appreciate the speed as we don’t want to give Marxists loads of doe [sic] for nothing!”,"

"However, Pincher insisted housing secretary Robert Jenrick has “no relationship” with Richard Desmond (pictured, left), owner of developer Westferry Developments, and had no discussions with him about avoiding a levy charge"

[thread]

Drug policy is a complex area

It falls across social, health and criminal justice areas

I will leave the question of what Scotland is capable of in terms of devolved powers and what is reserved at Westminster

I just want to focus on "SNP cuts"

[thread]

Can I be the first to congratulate Boris Johnson

On getting a "British shaped deal"

On a "gold standard" trade deal

On making the UK "mightily prosper"

/joking

He won't

But he will sell it as such

And that is all that matters
It is a sign of how desperate brexiteers are

They can no longer pivot to USA
Oh and in case you thought it was just Trump that wanted to exploit the damage of brexit

[thread] on the state of this
"Even in the tumultuous hour of victory"

I saw how Gove and Boris looked in their "hour of victory"

They looked scared

Given that Michael can't recall what he did in core group

Why was it his hour of victory?
Not just forces

But mighty forces

How dark and ominous sounding
"I knew mighty forces would do anything to thwart Brexit"

[thread] "Our Capital is not safe for young people"

It is almost like there is a Tory mayoral election coming up

So let's have a quick look at this here
Now here is a Home Secretary

Who defunded the Police

Who told the Police to stop crying wolf at the consequences of cuts

Who then DENIED having accused them of crying wolf

Let's unpack this
"Since Brussels is convinced"

I like that

Personalise it to Brussels

Not 27 EU nations, our friends, neighbours
"convinced that leaving is an unprecedented act of self-harm"

it has been an act of self-harm

see the damage so far

see why no deal has to be sold as an Australia style deal

see why it has to be hidden within the "massive success" of covid
