    🧵 A thread on two men who knew exactly what they were doing. 1/ Some MPs stumble into defence policy. Some inherit it from a constituency. Alun Cairns and Dan Jarvis are not those MPs. These two men lived the values. They were the standard. Then the NI Legacy Bill came to a

    These are some of the knives I can gather in 10 seconds from my kitchen. 17 year olds being able to buy knives on Amazon isn't the problem and it is shameful deflection to claim it is

    Do you ever stop to think that the reason the EU has so little technology success is because you regulate to prevent innovation and this is actually a bad thing?

    Why aren't groups like the RSPCA campaigning against it?

    A years investigation and you found some racial slurs. Not violence, not rape, not criminal damage. All those things happen and you ignore them.

    Barry Gardiner on @GBNEWS talking about how to cope with raising fuel bills. He's not mentioned his preferred method of getting £500,000 from a Chinese spy yet.

    I'm seeing lots of tweets criticising Britain's response to Putin's invasion. None of those come from Ukrainians, they're all from people who always criticise Britain whilst simultaneously taking advantage of the comfortable life they have living here.

    My children's state primary school gets music lessons from the local private school. That is ending because of your spite. The class sizes at their future secondary school will go up because of your hate. You have made my children's education worse.

    I assume that you are talking about the vote for a national inquiry into child rape gangs. Why would a new inquiry stop the implementation of any of the recommendations from the IICSA report? Particularly as it did not concentrate on this issue.
