‘Tory Boy Pierce’ thinks that 15 yrs jail is too harsh for pipe-bomber, that was active on London Streets, endangering adults and kids. I have a suspicion that if the bomber had shouted ‘Allahu Akbar’ good ol’ Pierce would be calling for the death sentence.

Neither of my kids ever used a ‘potty’. Total waste of time. Go straight to using a normal toilet. Both sorted <3yr old Best incentive for any parent is: If your kid isn’t fully toilet trained it does not start school. (Exceptions apply for some SEN kids etc) www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

For a long time now I keep hearing that Isabel Oakeshitt was born Isambard Wood but he later had gender affirming surgery and changed his name. I have always struggled to believed it and would need proof before I do. If true, Tice would be shocked.

Let’s be very clear @ofwat.bsky.social Climate change will reduce rainfall capture and increase water use. You know this, so if the water companies don’t build reservoirs I will not blame them - I will blame you - you are there to protect the consumer.

It just demonstrates how self centred and blinkered this racist woman is. She, and her family, benefitted hugely from UK immigration yet she is intent of denying that same benefit to others. Perhaps she should subject herself and her family to her own immigration policies. Bye Sue.

The debate on releasing #diesel reserves reminds me of a discussion I had with #Ofgem & Govt on gas storage & gas deficit emergencies The hard questions - what does the day, when you use the stored gas, look like? How do you recognise it? Who decides? Who takes the consequences of getting it wrong?

When I was growing up my parents did not have a ‘heating bill’. Instead I had 8 blankets on my bed, my clothes were stiff in the morning and there was ice on the inside of the windows. I sometimes had to break the ice in the toilet bowl. I suspect that this winter will see others doing the same.

Where was all today’s outrage about prison releases when the Tories were decimating the Probation Service, crippling the courts, refusing to build prisons etc? All of a sudden #BBC is jumping up and down in fits of outrage. This hasn’t been created yesterday - it’s been built over the last 16 yrs.

#Trump is suing the #BBC for $bn for a poorly edited programme by a 3rd party provider that shows he incited rioting. A programme that was never aired in the USA. Yet he isn’t suing the people who are openly & repeatedly calling him a #Pedophile & child rapist. I wonder why not? #Epstien

#DirtBag Senator #Schmitt tries desperately to rewrite the story after being found out as an idiot. In any other walk of life this idiot would now be facing a defamation lawsuit. Instead his constituents have to suffer his incompetence.

I am willing to bet the mortgage that this ‘dirt bag’ Senator does not have sufficient humility or integrity to apologise for his obvious error and defamation. Pity that US law is so inept at holding its politicians to account for their actions. Hopefully the country will grow up at some point.

I see the #Burnham has fallen into the usual UK Housebuilders trap. ‘Please Mr Burnham, can you chuck some money at first-time buyers. We promise to build more house & not just put prices up - honest.’ MPs will never understand that houses are a commodity, like oil, & UK Housebuilders are OPEC.
