This is because, unlike some left wing rags I could mention, the Daily Mail conducts proper investigative journalism, rather than simply trawl Twitter for random, unverified quotes.

I’m not sure that ‘you can trust our nationalism because it’s better than all those nasty foreign nationalisms’ is quite the reassuring line that you think it is.

@PaulBrandITV
Even if the Met have seen it and even if, by some unfathomable logic, they have determined the PM was not himself breaking the rules, where does that leave the PM’s claim that no rules were broken? He can no longer claim ignorance.
@PJTheEconomist
@GuardianHeather
If it can no longer raise people’s living standards, then what does free market capitalism have left left to offer in return for obscene inequality, environmental destruction and failing public services?
@UrbanAchievr
@davidfrum
Even if his judgment were correct (which it obviously isn’t) what kind of president would admit in public that he didn’t trust his own intelligence services?
@CeliaRichards0n
@Otto_English
It reminds that these are not just innocent eccentrics having a moan. They are part of co-ordinated, well funded, well organised movement that goes far wider than the NT. They don’t give up. Repeating the same lies over and over again is a calculated part of the strategy.

We are not in a normal political discourse here. He’s the enemy. Any weapon available should be used, including - especially - ridicule and humiliation.

And he rather neglects the fact that many basic rights at work were won by unions but have since been extended to millions of workers, union and non union alike.
@JolyonMaugham
There needs to be criminal accountability for all of these PPE scandals. This Tory govt has been a kleptocracy, treating public money as if it was their own and the state as a tool to enrich themselves.
@stephenpollard
@davidfrum
It’s convenient for you to dismiss support for Palestine as a ‘carnival of hate’ as it absolves you from having to address their claim to statehood or to acknowledge the complicit nature of the Israeli govt. There’ll be no peace while each side tries to delegitimise the other.
@OurShallowState
His pause may or may not be noteworthy - I remain to be convinced - but surely it shouldn’t be too much to ask that the press at least applies the same standards to Trump as they do to Biden.
@MuellerSheWrote
Biden may be old and he may have some more bad days to come, but this whole ‘replace Biden’ thing looks more and more like a Murdoch inspired media storm to me.
@D_Blanchflower
@trussliz
At least when there were Sterling crises under Labour it’s was because they were trying to spend money on public services that people need. Truss has done it just to give tax cuts to people who are already stinking rich. It’s beyond belief.
@JMPSimor
And even if any of them were ‘false footballers’, they were still young women escaping a horrendous regime. Why would that be a cause for criticism?
@ollysmithtravel
@Otto_English
They should be made to pay for it to be rebuilt exactly as it was before - and then sent to jail for arson and insurance fraud.
@Networkinvegas
Please explain the motive for pretending COVID is worse than it really is? They want everyone to be locked up at home? They would like to crash the economy? I’m puzzled.
@OurShallowState
I don’t think people have even begun to price in the impact of a criminal trial on the public attitude towards him. Just seeing him sitting in the dock will send jaws dropping, never mind a possible guilty verdict and sentencing at the end of it all.

@RubinReport
They are terrified.
‘Don’t talk to law enforcement without a lawyer’, ‘Don’t talk to the Feds’, ‘Be careful who you email’.
Why would they say any of that, if they didn’t all know they were guilty as hell and about to be exposed?
@boxingbrief
@mrjamesob
Of course, because a wealthy, Eton educated prime minister with the full backing of most of the UK media is really vulnerable to bullying.
@IanDunt
Chilling and yet, even while they try to bypass the sovereign elected body, they still claim to be enacting the will of the people. Smells very like fascism even if they haven’t got there yet.
@Dominic2306
A couple of tips for you:
1) Constantly using the term ‘NPCs’ makes you sound like an arrogant prick
2) If you post in English (instead of whatever the fuck that is) it will be easier for your followers to understand you.
@MrHarryCole
@Femi_Sorry
Ah yes. It’s such a laugh this Brexit thing, isn’t it? Have you been bantering like this with the farmers too? Or the small business owners? Or the fishermen? Or the lorry drivers? Or the care home residents?
@SpiroAgnewGhost
I wonder if it ever occurs to any of his cult followers that when they actually look out of the window they can see with their eyes that nothing of the sort is going on around them.
@Sandancer1977
@GNev2
No one tried to overturn it. They wanted a second referendum to agree what kind of Brexit it would be and there’s an awful of Leavers too who now wish they’d been successful.
@scook2003
@mrjamesob
They love describing the British, and by extension themselves, as firm, calm, dignified etc etc, whereas in reality they are bunch of lying, morally bankrupt fanatics.
@JonathanPieNews
That’s right, and there was nothing much they could have done about walking away from our closest trading partners, removing our rights to protest and to vote, allowing our public services to collapse or poisoning our rivers and coastline. It’s just been that sort of a decade.
@itvpeston
@jessphillips
She’s spot on. The Tories have decided that they can’t conduct politics without stirring up hatred or turning one group against another. They really seem not to care about the consequences, which will be felt for a long time after they’ve gone.
@amyspitalnick
@mehdirhasan
Serious question - why do witnesses have treat her with an even ounce of respect or politeness when confronted with aggression and rudeness like that?
@FraserNelson
No we really aren’t. They remain a proto-fascist, intolerant, authoritarian movement that spreads lies and threatens violence as a matter of course. We are not MAGA. We are the very opposite.
@Otto_English
People seem to be treating it with mild amusement. I don’t think it’s amusing at all. It’s deeply sinister and pernicious. It’s obscene that one of our ‘mainstream’ political parties should be circulating filth like this and bodes very badly for the general election.
@sturdyAlex
In what alternative universe do screenshots magically change the time shown on the tweet itself to the time of the screenshot? This excuse is even flimsier than the original one about the gif. She’s just another right winger who has a difficult relationship with the truth.
@EladNehorai
@mehdirhasan
It’s taken just a few short years for this type of comment to go from being completely taboo to entering the mainstream of public discussion. We are in a lot of trouble.
@D_Blanchflower
No. You’ve actually been quite charitable. They have actually sought to harm ordinary working people and are an active danger to our health, safety and wellbeing.
@D_Blanchflower
They spend decades hacking away at employment rights and wages, making work an exhausting, soul destroying experience for many and then expect people to come running back into the jobs market to get them out of a hole. I don’t think so.
@jessicaelgot
@rowenamason
“…management appeared to be worried about losing access to politicians and briefings from No 10 if they crossed the Downing Street operation.”
Perhaps they should have thought about doing some journalism instead.
@MarkJacob16
Turns out that in the one election that he apparently won (on paper anyway), he cheated. And still didn’t win the popular vote. Electoral poison.
@Otto_English
@RestoreTrustNT
Weird for such an active, grass roots organisation with such obvious links to the wider community to go silent like that almost overnight.
@JamesJWYork
@tompeck
They’ve openly said they intend to deprive a whole category of people of their human rights. How is that not at least vaguely reminiscent of fascist rhetoric? People have been saying ‘don’t use the F word’ for so long, they forgot that you are supposed to say it when you see it.
@D_Blanchflower
No wonder Labour always get accused of spending too much. Fixing the kind of wreckage the Tories invariably leave behind them doesn’t come cheap.
@robfordmancs
@GuardianHeather
My joy is tempered by the thought of how much uglier and hateful our politics would become with even a handful of Reform MPs sitting in parliament.
@KateEMcCann
@mrjamesob
@StigAbell
@TimesRadio
The reason so many of these inadequates reach the top of the Tory party, where they then fail abysmally, is because they are promoted and shielded from all normal scrutiny by our right wing client media until it’s too late.
@JKash000
@Acyn
Is there any MAGA anywhere that can tell the truth? MGT is a foul mouthed, racist bully. She tried it on Jasmine and Jasmine taught the bully a much needed lesson.
@rolandmcs
And it’s all the fault of the Left, despite not being in power for most of the last 40 years. I suppose admitting that the ideology that you’ve parroted unquestioningly your whole life is an abject failure is a little hard.
@mrjamesob
I think it didn’t quite go according to plan. She was hoping there would be clashes between the marchers and the far right thugs which she could blame on the marchers. Instead her rent a mob have kicked off at the cenotaph all by themselves. Not a good look.
@Bubblebathgirl
@JoeBiden
They didn’t cheat. We know that because, despite all the cry baby whining and moaning, not a single shred of credible evidence has *ever* been presented and the claims were kicked out in 60 separate court cases. You need to find another way to cope now.
@RichardJMurphy
He helped ignite the Tory zeal for tax cutting and now, a few decades later, our infrastructure is collapsing and our public services barely functional. Anyone see a connection?
@markjenkinsonmp
@UKLabour
Umm… it’s not a vision of anything. It’s a description of today’s Tory Britain. So are the lorry queues, the food banks, the ambulances outside A&E, the cancelled flights, the collapsing pound…
