Two months ago Liz Truss said the prospect of rising mortgage rates due to borrowing was “project fear”. We’ve kept the receipts. #WhereIsLizTruss
00:00- Betty Boothroyd — hardcore. Share this one, it’ll stiffen sinews across the land."Wilson said anyone who claimed membership of the EU was a black and white issue was either a charlatan or a simpleton... which brings me on to Boris Johnson" says Betty Boothroyd - backing a "People's Vote" #Brexit x.com/garyconnor84/s…... x.com/garyconnor84/s…
- Current popular vote has Green/LD/CHUK at 5.4m as against Brexit Party on 4.7m so where is this “Brexit Party romps it” bullshit coming from? SHARE SHARE SHARE
- We will now leave the EU because the Labour Party was too stubborn and sentimental to jettison a leader who was clearly box office poison from day one. Every one of his enablers should hang their heads in shame. They’ve betrayed every Remainer.
- You are a liar. Britain received more from the Marshall Plan than Germany. Delete this tweet and replace it with an apology that tells the truth. Details here: bbc.co.uk/history/britis…
- How the press thinks it looks vs. How it really looks
BREAKING: Sir Keir Starmer accepted accommodation worth £20,000 to help his 16-year-old son study for his GCSE exams, it has emerged Read more: trib.al/mFwiVHi - The Metropolitan Police just radicalised a generation of women.
- We try to be fair to Laura Kuenssberg on the podcast. But how in hell is it possible to present Johnson’s announcement this afternoon as some kind of political masterstroke — instead of the most desperate, transparent and pathetic U-Turn of the past 20 years?
- "I am on your side." No you fucking aren't, you third-rate, xenophobic, cowardly, hostile-environment-creating, half-the-country-ignoring, cheap, delusional, lying FAILURE. You are everything this country isn't.
- More airtime for Nigel Farage — seven-times failed Parliamentary candidate, not a leader of any party — on @BBCr4today. When will BBC News cease shoring up this outlier’s brand for him?
- “Now that no-deal is off the table, we have a great, new deal” - Boris Johnson, October 28th 2019 Please don’t RT this, he wouldn’t want anyone to see it... #BorisHasFailedTheNation
00:00 - “You know how we told you business would notice no change during transition? We were lying. And it’s too late for you to do anything about it now.”
- This is emerging as an absolute scandal. Lots of small companies offered the Govt readymade #ventilators right now. Govt went with untried Dyson instead. And “we didn’t get the EU’s email” is up there with “the dog ate my homework”. #CovidUK
