We’re just over a week into the World Cup and for a bit of fun, we’ve pulled together a very odd thread of politicians mixing with football. Enjoy! 👇
Here's Boris Johnson tripping up a nine-year-old child during a football match.
When times were simpler for Truss. #LiveLaughLove
Kick it against that red wall at the back, Keir.
Ed ballsing up his shot.
D'you think 'Dancing Queen' is her goal celebration song?
If only Hunt was as diligent at flagging the Tories' poor economic record.

💥@PeterKellner1: "I quite like using numbers to make sense of the what is going on. Yet sometimes they are not enough. If they were, the fact that Brexit has cost Britain’s economy 4-5% of GDP would be a major national scandal."

🧵👇 1/
As a country, we are more than £100 billion a year poorer than we need have been.

Money that could have been used to keep pensioners warm in the winter AND improve our schools and hospitals AND keep down employers’ National Insurance rates. 2/
Rachel Reeves would've had no problem meeting Starmer’s demand for more money to revive our armed forces.

In financial terms, the PM would've been able to head to Paris today and lead from the front.

Because of the economic damage done by Brexit, his options are limited. 3/

If you managed to log off over Christmas and the New Year, you might be wondering why right-wing politicians are suddenly calling for a new inquiry into child grooming gangs, how Elon Musk is involved, and how the govt is responding.

Here's what you need to know - a timeline👇1/
Back in 2010, prosecutions began for the grooming and sexual abuse of young girls across England and Wales. The towns of Rochdale, Oldham and Rotherham were at the centre of the scandal. 2/
In 2015, the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse started looking into the abuse, chaired by Prof Alexis Jay.

The inquiry took 7 years to conclude, and in 2022, Jay made 20 recommendations to the Government to reduce child suffering. 3/

Tim Stanley, in what now appears to be a weekly slot on one or other BBC flagship politics programme, reels off a huge amount of absolute, provable nonsense about immigration.

And he does so completely unchallenged. Enough now. ~AA #PoliticsLive

A MEGA-THREAD 🧵1/
CLAIM: International students "are not adding net to the economy; they are taking away".

All research shows those on a student visa are overwhelmingly a net benefit to the economy (see full gov't report ), adding up to TEN TIMES what they cost. ~AA 2/ assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5b928cc1…Image
CLAIM: Work visas are typically granted to "people who come seeking a job".

The majority of work visas are to sponsored migrants, who already have a job offer with an approved business or organisation. Exemptions are only for 'high value' individuals (old Tier 1). ~AA 3/ Image

This weekend has shown some of the worst of our country. Racism, violence, Islamophobia. But it's also shown some of the best of us.

There is a story to be told of humanity and resilience. Let's tell it. 1/13 🧵
In Hull, following 25 arrests after several shops were set on fire, there have been big groups of volunteers taking to the streets to lean up after the rioters. 2/13
In Middlesbrough, a picture was taken of volunteers hugging a Bangladeshi family after cleaning up after rioters smashed their windows. 3/13 mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/g…
