@WritesBright Of course £500 million is chicken feed compared to £37 billion on Test & Trace.

Taxpayer treated ‘like ATM’ over failed £37bn Test and Trace

The taxpayer was treated like “an ATM machine” when the Test and Trace programme was handed the equivalent of a fifth of the NHS’s annual budget, it has been claimed.

@afneil Just because there are good things to be found elsewhere doesn't change the fact that British TV is still probably among the best in the world, despite now producing some of the worst, such as GB News of which you were the handmaiden. Producing quality TV isn't a zero sum game.

@afneil British singers and songwriters are extremely popular among the European public, but attach a UK label to the performance and audiences outside the UK run a mile from supporting them. That tells you something about the UK reputation abroad, and has done for many years.

@DaveKeating @JulienHoez 7. Complaining about lack of supplies of the AZ vaccine while allowing existing stock to languish in fridges unused. 8. Sowing confusion by first deciding not be use the AZ vaccine for over 65s, then deciding not to use it for the under 55s.

@hzeffman @MattChorley Perhaps the Tories should have thought of this when Johnson became PM.

@jillongovt @dsmitheconomics So it turns out that Tugendhat is as much an opportunist as the woman he's now supporting.

@gtcjo @AlisdairLiddle The OP said there was an EU price cap, which there isn't. Your post refers only to France where 85% of electricity generation comes from nuclear fuel.

@TheNewsAgents @Glostermeteor @GlobalPlayer @maitlis @jonsopel @lewis_goodall Indeed, and now moderates like @Dannythefink have the nerve to suggest there's a case for the centre right. Why should anyone believe a word they say when for years they went along with the takeover of the Tory party by the extremists.

@johnestevens @LBC Why has the BMA got involved in an unnecessary row with Wes Streeting? And why has Starmer upped the anti by his comments?

@BeepsMan @DavidHenigUK @13sarahmurphy Starmer is so focused on winning back voters in Red Wall seats that he goes out of his way to offend voters who recognise economic realities. If the Tories lose power at the next GE there may be mild pleasure among their opponents but there won't be rejoicing at a Labour victory.

@Feargal_Sharkey @sjwrenlewis I would also like an explanation from Ofwat explaining why it didn't force the water company to upgrade the pipes.

@HousewifePolish @afneil @MailOnline Each country has its own particular problems unrelated to EU membership, but instead to misguided policy decisions. However it's easy to identify ours - 13 years of Tory economic policies.
