Yet more male on female violence in Leicester Square.
That’s the common denominator here.
But few are willing to make that obvious connection and instead jump straight to speculating what race the perpetrator is.
Those poor victims 😞

Have they all had a lobotomy?! Do they not remember that he had to resign at the call of the public? But crack on, it will be the final nail on the coffin of the Tory Party.

I, for one, am absolutely here for

wiping the floor clean with the corrupt Tories. I would never have guessed it, but I am fucking loving it. Keep up the great work!
@campbellclaret
This is really important…
The Guardian article didn’t quote Fred Thomas as saying it.
Thomas has only ever stated publicly that he can’t talk about his deployment.
Mercer has thrown a hissy fit over nothing.

@trussliz
I think the context of what she was saying will overshadow her monotone one liners. The electorate will not be happy that we have to pay for the energy increase, whilst the energy companies are making £170 billion in profit.
@campbellclaret
Yeah, she basically said “it’s ok because he’s paying it”. Completely ignoring the fact that he HADN’T paid it and WOULDN’T have paid it had he not been caught.
@MichelleMone
wasn’t “honest” about her financial interest to me.
She didn’t explain “from the very beginning” about her financial “involvement” - her message below was typical.
It wasn’t in her Register of Interests, as you’d expect it.
@RishiSunak
is right to take this
Sunak on Starmer:
"Under his tenure, rape convictions actually dropped."
Crown Prosecution Service data shows rape conviction rates rose from 57.7 per cent in 2008 to 60.3 per cent to 2013 during

@carolvorders
Carol isn’t implying that. She’s pointing out the absurdity of Newnight inviting Rod Liddle on their show to opine on something that he really shouldn’t, when he’s written stuff like the above.

@BethRigby
He was on BBC News, after the statement, saying that it was the right thing to do in suspending you. All while Sharp is still in post. I don’t think he’s sorry in the slightest.
@implausibleblog
I can’t wait for when Labour reveals the corruption the Tories have been up to, once they get in No10.
I hope the release it all and set up inquiries.
The Tories should be bricking it.

@JohnnyMercerUK
Are you joking? You’re joking, right?
How on earth has he been vindicated?
Fred Thomas has never stated publicly what Mercer claims he has.
Mercer also admitted using his ministerial position to look up his opponents records.
@DanNeidle
It’s also deeply concerning that threatening the press and trying to bully them out of reporting something you know to be true, wasn’t deemed to be breaking the ministerial code. Did the ethics adviser even consider it in his investigation?

@IanWright0
Good man! I’m a Spurs fan, but I’ve always liked Ian Wright, you can tell he’s a decent bloke this proves it! BBC need to wake up and smell the coffee.

@HalcyonNash
Why is he smiling and laughing at a man joking that GP’s “spend most of their time on holiday”?
When that GP is saying how dire the situation in the NHS is.
He needs to go.
@Peston
Honestly, I can’t believe he’s using this as his defence. When people literally stopped themselves from saying goodbye to loved ones. I just can’t stand it.
@sturdyAlex
It was striking that even though Alcaraz is 16 years younger than Djokovic, he was infinitely more mature in the final. Djokovic breaking his racket was pathetic. I’ve never been happier to see someone lose.

@BrianCathcart
Camilla looks very cozy and comfortable with the Murdoch’s News Corp CEO. Definitely seems like what Harry said about her leaking stories is very likely true.
@YvetteCooperMP
How long is this going to drag on for? Barely anyone wants them there, they don’t even sound like they want to be there themselves anymore. They need to call a general election already 🙄
@iainoverton
This is so important. Thank you. They need to be held accountable for using WhatsApp as a shield from FOI requests. How does this play in to the rumours of Simon Case now having automated deleting on his messages now? I’m sure others are doing the same too.
@joymorrissey
Have you even read the report? You can be effective without being rude, abusive and abusing power. He is a bully and also wasn’t getting results. Good riddance.
@mrjamesob
@maitlis
I didn’t realise impartiality meant not reporting provable facts, if they’re negative towards government! What on Earth is this country coming to. She’s right to stand her ground, the BBC should not be a mouthpiece for government. We’re getting more like North Korea by the day.
@maitlis
You mean the fact that foreign people/adversaries, with no British citizenship, and no right to vote, could become a Tory member and choose our next PM? Yes, I think you could be right!
@PippaCrerar
At what point does the threshold for criminal negligence get crossed here? This scheme undoubtedly would have led to deaths that were otherwise preventable.
Sunak didn’t consult health chiefs, so why isn’t he being criminally investigated?
@13sarahmurphy
Let me get the straight… the Deputy Chairman of the Conservative Party is leading a dissenting faction of Tories, to do some racism? Could this not be grounds for Sunak to relieve him of his duties? If Sunak had a backbone and integrity, of course. Not saying he will do it.

Fantastic article and very important points. I felt sick seeing Farage given the opportunity to put his conspiracy theories across on

Oh I think that’s an absolutely fantastic idea to do in the middle of a cost of living crisis. He’s determined for people to despise him.
@campbellclaret
@GaryLineker
I don’t think he has admitted he got it wrong. He’s on BBC right now saying it was the right decision to suspend Lineker, without a hint of irony that Sharp is still in position.
@SamCoatesSky
“I’m not sorry for what I’ve done. I’m sorry I got caught. I do not think I should have any consequences. None of this is my fault. I’m great.”
@AdamBienkov
Question is… did Suella Braverman only tell the mistaken recipient to delete… or did she tell John Hayes to delete too? If not, it proves that it was deliberate. Which is quite obvious anyway, seeing as she had to send it to her personal email first.

@dinosofos
Nadine, have you looked at the country around you? Your “progressive Tory government” has brought the country to it’s knees! Can’t wait to see the back of you all.
