    Imagine if you will a scenario where a police officer gets kicked in the teeth, and the force does not pursue the perpetrator because nobody reported it. This is precisely analogous with the position @metpoliceuk have adopted regarding the misconduct of the former prime minister.

    Are you questioning the integrity of the chair of the 1922 committee? That committee represents the epitome of Conservative values... Oh, I see your point.

    Just to emphasise to my small band of merry followers how important it is to *not* share this recording. Do your very best to suppress it and make sure to tell everybody you know to not share it as well.

    I wonder if @metpoliceuk can confirm what the Home Secretary was saying before Christmas: that it is legal to use rohypnol at low dosage to keep people compliant and prevent them from running away. Please retweet if you want an answer.

    I do not like Owen Jones, although I forget why that is, but there are times when he speaks good sense, and this is one of them...

    Israel's mass slaughter was made possible by Western politicians and media outlets. They must not be allowed to walk away from the crime scene, hoping everyone will forget they were there in the first place.

    'A spokesperson for the Home Office said: “We do all we can to ensure children are safe, secure and supported as we urgently seek placements with a local authority.' Is that the same Home Office that "Lost" a load of kids not so long back?

    The policing shows a marked contrast to the Sarah Everard vigil.

    You think you've got problems. A few years ago I had a breakdown and started hallucinating. For a few weeks I actually believed she was our prime minister...

    "The Prime Minister either should have known that or should have been advised of that, and whoever is advising him deserves to be stripped of their responsibility at this very moment." standard.co.uk/news/politics/…

    Perhaps we should have the BBC run a BBCQT corrections section following the show, where the lies of the panellists are exposed.

    Ah no. It is not that the Church *thinks* they are extremists: they will have thought that for a long time, but the hurdle for them to speak out about it is massive. It is the fact that this government has taken them over that hurdle which speaks volumes.
