The most important thing in life is time. You can replace, repair or rewind most things, but time is a one shot deal. Put it off until tomorrow & it might not arrive. Waste it & it's gone. Time is precious. Make the most of it. ... My wife died unexpectedly. Time is cruel.

@NadineDorries @BorisJohnson That's quite inflammatory language against MPs doing their job, Nadine. They're on the committee that scrutinises the behaviour of ALL MPs to ensure standards are maintained. It's not hatred. It's integrity. It's honesty. It's impartiality. No wonder you don't recognise it.

@Mike_Fabricant Full budgets are followed by a vote. The Truss/Kwarteng mini budget was not followed by a vote. It had no OBR guidance. No one was consulted. Tories even sacked the Civil Servant who may have warned against the economic catastrophe. It's all on Tories & their ERG puppet.

@Jgs_x The change does three things the Tories like: It saves money, so more can be kept by the cronies running test & trace. It distorts the figures, so Tories can pretend rates are falling when tests aren't recorded. It encourages people to cut corners, so the virus spreads more.

Plymouth has a 75km wide Freeport. Everything & everyone inside the zone is bound by whatever regulations the unelected Freeport owners decide. Because it's a private company with a contract awarded by the Tories, voters have no say. There's nothing democratic about Freeports.

Govt. freeport maps lacked detail so I made these to show the sheer scale of these deregulation zones. Much extensive research on this and those involved done by @bakerstherald also condensed into some easy to read threads by @EuropeanPowell

@AngelaRayner @MoS_Politics When there is no argument, no defence, & nothing left to say, the Tory media attack the person to try to undermine their authority. So today, in defence of the indefenceable Johnson, the MoS has revealed that women have legs & Johnson has the concentration of a distracted moth.

@Mike_Fabricant Mr Fabricant has explained that the important thing for Tories is to 'appear' united. Not to unite the country. Not to alleviate poverty. Not to be democratic. Not to help the poor. Not to fund the NHS. Not a fair society. it's to 'fix' the economy the Tories broke with Brexit.

@MakeHerstory1 @Conservatives The Government deliberately rigged the timing of a vote in the House of Lords to ensure the Sarah Everard inquiry could not be strengthened. Think about that. The inquiry into a woman's murder by a serving Met Police officer was weakened; sabotaged by the Tories. Disgraceful.

@kelvmackenzie Fixed it. I, Kelvin MacKenzie, have deleted the NHS Covid-19 app, as has anyone with no brains, leaving every key worker (teachers, council staff, shop & delivery staff, etc) still using it & at risk, afraid that it pings & they lose another ten days pay or even their lives.

@nicktolhurst The Tory plan: Buy off farmers to end farming in the UK. Then import everything from the other side of the world. Economically, environmentally, strategically: it makes no sense, will increase costs, pollute more & leave us vulnerable. This is a #ToryBrexitDisaster in the raw.

@trussliz @Daily_Express Unions exist because the wealthy exploit the poor. Unions, backed by over 6,000,000 members & working for us all, fought to win better pay & safer working conditions. Tories, backed by 160,000 members & working for themselves, always resist, & connive to take away our rights.

@PeterStefanovi2 By "we", he meant Tories. & those Tory "objectives" do not include protecting us, caring for our wellbeing, or improving our lives. To enact the future Tories plan, they need to remove our rights & by quitting the ECHR, they hope to avoid ending up on trial for what follows.

@johnredwood While you're asking for more beds, ask him to magic more staff into existence, too. Thanks to Tory cuts, there are 93,800+ vacancies in the NHS. Brexit means EU staff won't come back & Tories haven't trained enough UK staff for a decade. John voted for Brexit & NHS cuts.

@ScottBentonMP @GaryATurner While the UK was in the EU, they could safely be returned to France. That is EU law. Brexit means the UK is not in the EU, so we cannot return them to France. That is international law. ...& it means the UK is responsible for their safety. It's exactly what you voted for.

@johnredwood It's a consequence of Brexit. It's the process created by the oven-ready Brexit deal which Frost & Johnson wrote, Johnson signed, the ERG supported & Tories forced through to prevent scrutiny. In other words, it's exactly what you voted for, John, & the EU are holding you to it

Astonishingly, another Tory MP attacks the Labour MP for raising the matter. This is beyond unacceptable. The Tories are out of control. They MUST go. #GeneralElectionN0W

@greg_herriett The UK is led by a narcasistic charlatan who possesses the political skills of a baboon hurling it's own excrement at anyone in the vicinity. But unlike the baboon, Johnson has no redeeming characteristics & is yet to grasp the concepts of responsibility or cooperation.

@NadineDorries When a minister fails any one of these seven Nolan principles, they're expected to apologise & resign. Johnson has failed all seven. By continuing to support him, ministers are also breaking these principles. The all must go. No exceptions. #NeverTrustAToryGovernment

@BootstrapCook @CherylChebby77 At Christmas, when the supermarkets fall over themselves to price selected veg cheaply, a packet of sprouts can be bought for around 30p. If you then ate nothing raw sprouts every day, you'd create so much gas that you'd sound like a Tory MP telling the poor to eat cheaply.
