To go A Few Good Men

If events are safe

And a Prime Minister assures us they are safe

Then why is the VIP area socially distanced?

The VIPs vs the plebs
I took the use of the words pleb from this

I am going to praise @Nigel_Farage

Yup

I am going there

I would like to thank him for his honesty
I am going to focus on that occasion of his honesty

I want to use it to illustrate a question on the why he was honest and the how in the manner of how he said it
His "honesty" was evidenced on the morning of the 24th June 2016

"We have a £10 billion a year featherbed"

[thread] on @UKPrimeMinister @BorisJohnson and his decisions in relation to #FreedomDay

I want Boris to be right

I want him to lead

The fact that neither of those things is true or will happen

Does not remove my hope

It just demonstrates the fucking futility of it all
So first of all

I want covid to be over

I don't want to wear masks any more

I don't want to face restrictions from public health policies

But
I want this to be done in a way that is based on data

And takes an approach based on the risks

Of infection

Of hospitalisation

Of death

Of long covid

of the disruption that isolating due to infection has

And of the disruption that isolating due to risk of exposure has

[thread] Now @joymorrissey blocked me a while back

Just for pointing out the words and record of her party

And I want to thank her for that

Because it means I don't get to see her doing things like this

No I am not talking about the portrait of the Queen

It is an MP sharing a photograph with a backdrop of her work computer in the background showing the screen active

That's a bit of an information security risk if she had anything sensitive on screen at the time
Oh and on the Queen's portrait

I would ask

In what way does she think lying to the Queen to unlawfully prorogue Parliament represents British values?

This is great news

This is brilliant news

Good business, workers and their families

Sadly

For Owen

It shows how desperate liars are

Not only to lie about it

But to exploit it

So I could just do this as a really short thread

There is one simple question to ask anyone who sells the lies like Owen does above

Precisely what did brexit enable us to do to encourage this company investment decision that we were not able to do pre-brexit?
Oh yes and don't try and link this

The UK will still be bound by EU rules and by WTO rules EVEN AFTER THIS

And it has not happened yet

[thread] I know it has been a long pandemic

It has been a long (at the time of writing) year and a half

On 23rd January 2020

Matt Hancock assured us the British government was "well prepared"

I am going to remind you of some other words that Matt has used over the same period
Matt Hancock 3rd April 2020

"However, the British public are, in a very large part, following the new rules, and the police are policing them largely with their normal consent-based attitude and approach. "

Matt Hancock 5th April 2020

"we do absolutely require people to follow them. And we have had these questions about the boundaries of the rules and people pushing the boundaries. "
