I don't think enough people understand that the bare, windswept hillsides of the Scottish Highlands, though beautiful, are not at all a natural landscape. These glens were blanketed in woodland until they were cleared with axe and saw, and kept clear by deer and sheep and fire.

Devi Sridhar is a not a government official, she is Professor of Global Public Health at the University of Edinburgh. Alex Cole-Hamilton should delete this misinformation, and/or explain why he thinks she should be deprived of her right to speak freely as an academic.

When politicians meddle with public health, things go wrong. Itโ€™s not helpful when public health officials meddle in politics, either. Devi Sridhar undermines her contribution to the Covid response with this constant nationalist sycophancy๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป

The UK government say the "Social Care Levy" will raise ยฃ12bn per year. In the last year Britain's billionaires have increased their wealth by ยฃ40bn. We could replace the entire levy by taxing *only billionaires* and they would still be getting richer by ยฃ1000 per minute EACH.

@our_jesse @LabAcceler I haven't smelled an apple pie cooling on a windowsill and floated through the air towards it for years now. Because of critical race theory.

@andrewkimmel @joerogan There are a few people in this thread saying things like "how can she think something so stupid?," but those questions assume she has any genuinely-held beliefs. Candace has the opinions she does because she is paid to have them. It's really that simple.

In back-to-back answers, Robert Courts argues: 1. We mustn't interfere with "the market", so we can't make rail travel more affordable, and; 2. We interfere with the market by subsidising airlines to make flights cheaper and that's very good actually.

Watch this refusal by Minister to answer me on why flights are cheap & trains so expensive - not helped by patronising substitute Tory Cttee Chair shushing me when I dare to do my job holding Govt to account Share if you think we need answers, not obfuscation from the boys ๐Ÿ’ช
