Anyone even considering for voting for @Conservatives should know : in doing so, you give up any claim you ever had to be humane & decent. And you'll spend the rest of your miserable existences aspiring to the heady heights of the gutter. And never quite getting there...

A pic of my beautiful brother, Danny. 35 years ago he contracted a rare condition that left him brain damaged + quadriplegic. Today, he was required to attend a โ€˜return to workโ€™ meeting or forgo his #disability #benefits . TORY BRITAIN. #Embarrassing #unacceptable #UKPolitics

@DPJHodges Whether the murdered are innocent Israeli kids at a music festival or innocent Palestinians in Gaza, the one thing we do know is that violent death begets violent death. The entire world should direct its diplomatic efforts towards smashing that cycle for good.

@trussliz All you would have done is accelerate the current trajectory towards blood and chaos by increasing poverty for the 99% and stuffing the pockets of the richest. And don't get me started on what this would have done to public services that are already on their knees.

@DMinghella Some wonderful and well-merited names on this list, but I would like to nominate you too, Dominic. You have been a shining star in 2021 for those choosing decency and goodness over a bitter diet of hate fed from so many directions. Thank you ๐Ÿ™

@Conservatives Lies and nonsense from the biggest bunch of crooks in the entire history of Britain. All of you - without exception - should be in prison. Criminal maladministration, theft of public billions and failure of the First Rule of government : to govern in the national interest.

@pritipatel Unspeakable rubbish from one of Britain's most malign, evil individuals. What's needed is to INCREASE tax on the 1% of people and organisations who hold more than 50% of the country's wealth. Then, eventually, you create scope to ease the burden on the 99%. But that won't happen.

@IsabelOakeshott @RichardBurgon I don't often use expletives on here, but even by your (unbelievably low) standards that is utter bollocks.

@darrengrimes_ The families last night were absolutely crystal clear : no race hate, bigotry or political point scoring off the back of their tragic losses. That you listened to them and then produced this disgusting tweet proves beyond doubt your complete lack of human worth and empathy.

@ChirpyChet @kellsley If we leave the ECHR it's goodbye to the Good Friday Agreement and (quite likely) the end of the current Brexit deal with the EU as well. All to facilitate a deal whereby we actually TAKE high-needs refugees from Rwanda and pay them huge sums of your & my money.

@GoodwinMJ Demonstrably UNTRUE. Check out the very latest British Social Attitudes Survey, published just a couple of weeks ago. Completely gives the lie to your entire personal schtick.

@truemagic68 I've spent time with Russ and he is an amazing human being who (apart from being a likely future England manager) would put most of us (including myself) to shame in terms of what he quietly does for others. He conducts himself with the perfect balance of politeness and honesty.

@EssexPR What a load of tripe. Anyone defending spending an EXTRA ยฃ63,000 per refugee on an insane fiasco which could easily see the UK take MORE of Rwanda's unwanted applicants than they take of ours needs their head examined. That's before you get to the fact that Kagame is toxic.

@BitebackPub @trussliz Very much doubt she's written much (if any) of this pile of bilge. More likely by far that it's been written by committee in Tufton Street and she's the 'name' used to head it up. Crooks, the whole lot of them.

@DPJHodges In all seriousness, I think seeking some mental health assistance would be a good idea, Dan. This is now way beyond an obsession that's compatible with a well mind.

@NickSimonTV @toryboypierce @GBNEWS @bj_goodwin @JohnGreave31183 @EssexPR She's a huge fan of free speech and democracy, in as much as she (and her ilk) will use both until power is obtained. Then of course, both will be banned and you'll have fascist totalitarianism as the default, all so that the rich can keep their money and keep the rest poor.
