Proportional Representation can fix the gender balance problem in Parliament on DAY ONE.

Under PR each party puts forward a list of candidates in order of preference depending on how many votes the party gets.

So you make it the law that it alternates woman-man-woman-man etc.

Anyone who thinks I'm suggesting some crazy new idea that's never been done before...
Please look across the Channel. Just for one second.🙄

Also, you see women make up 34% of UK MPs, and me suggesting that we make it 50% and you're like "NOOOOOOO!"...

Thank f*** for that. I had a 3-part thread ready to go, slamming the commission over #Article16.

I'll put the it below because it's still useful to say.
news.sky.com/story/covid-19…

1/5
If not for the pandemic, the path we were on was going to see the UK government unlawfully allowing unchecked goods into Northern Ireland, forcing the EU Commission to tell Ireland "To avoid a hard border and protect the Single Market, we need France-Ireland border checks.".

2/5
That would put the Ireland in a position of having to choose between being letting Brexit damage peace, being dragged out of the Single Market or uniting Ireland.

That's a horrible position, entirely the UK government's fault, but it avoids any abrupt border disasters.

Today's interview with Robert Jenrick and the one Matt Hancock did on GMB prove that all the Tory MPs have been given one simple instruction:

Under no circumstances admit to doing the wrong thing, or any responsibility for the consequences of that wrongdoing.

@susannareid100

In both circumstances...
Matt Hancock would have looked better if he had simply told @susannareid100 & @piersmorgan that he regretted not getting the kids their meals sooners.

And Robert Jenrick would have looked better if he'd said something along the lines of "I believe we were too hopeful about how things would go, and too worried about damaging the economy our citizens have to live in."

Robert Jenrick:
"Some people have been profoundly impacted by this".
(The most British way over saying "over 100,000 people died" ever.)

Robert Jenrick:
"There is no textbook for how to handle a pandemic like this"
(I'm pretty sure there bloody well are)

Robert Jenrick:
"There will come a time when we should learn lessons"

With 100,000 Covid deaths, Journalists better mention that Boris Johnson:

Feb-
Said he wanted UK to have the loosest reaction to Coronavirus.
Skipped 5 Cobra Meetings.

Mar-
Told people to shake hands
Allowed mass crowds

May-
Denied the Stay Home order existed to save Cummings

Seriously!?
This was a #DowningStreetBriefing SPECIFICALLY on how we ended up at 100,000 Covid deaths!
None of you journalists mentioned this!?!

NONE OF YOU mentioned this!?

😄 I tweeted this last night because I expected a Twitter storm over Nissan.
Just logged on to Twitter properly... and I see everyone is having fun. So let's address some things...

https://twitter.com/Femi_Sorry/status/1352392464238321667

1) As explained above, we damaged the supply route 70% of Nissan cars use, so now their survival depends on swallowing those costs or increasing their market share in the UK.
But their competitors in the UK will be thinking the same thing, so keep an eye on TOTAL UK car jobs.

2) A vital part of increasing their market share in the UK will be bigging up their plans for the UK with announcement like today.
