Just wanted to check with @JuliaHB1 - do you accept the result of the 2014 World Cup? Germany won the world cup in 2014, so they should keep it indefinitely, shouldn't they? Oh! You mean in football the teams DO get a chance to replay. But not in our democracy apparently.....

Just wanted to check with #FBPE folk trying to stop Brexit whether they accept the result of last nightโ€™s #EnglandvsColombia game? After all, 4-3 is such a narrow margin of victory, isnโ€™t it...? #justasking

@KateWilton1 @lucyallan @UKLabour I think Lucy needs to be reminded that #JohnsonVariant has been trending on Twitter and there's a good reason why. It's because party politics always matters more to Tory governments than tackling a global crisis.

This is a quite unbelievably stupid claim @OwenJones84 and your argument for it is very flimsy. There never was a soft Brexit on offer, if you check the historical record properly.

@Peston @RichardBentall The reason Johnson didn't think it was a breach of the rules is because he didn't actually *think* about it at all. And he didn't think about it at all, because he didn't actually *care*. That's the point. #JohnsonOut78

@mikegalsworthy @BBCNews It's more than just a "shame". It's an act of deliberate censorship. I've now made a formal complaint to @bbc and @BBCNews about their failure to give any coverage to the march. I hope many others will do the same. This is how I've worded my complaint.

I never cease to be amazed by how many Conservatives assume other British people "hate the country they live in" and attribute this to some mysterious thing called "wokery". Could it be that these Conservatives can't tolerate ANY criticism of what they've done to their country?

Indeed,completely self inflicted. I tried to settle 5 times with her. A simple apology would have done & walk away. This is nothing to do press freedom but not having any facts to back up what turned out to be lies.
