If I were Nigel Farage, I’d dip into that £5 million crypto gift just to fund a video that can compete with this! 🤣 HILARIOUS ⬇️

All the major parties, including the Greens, have now confirmed they won't be putting a candidate up against Farage in his sham by-election. So currently the Clacton by-election appears to be a choice between... A) a novelty act with no real policies B) Count Binface.

I love the pride that Graham Barrow has in the players; I bet they have trust in him in return. Contrast with Lowe. #wafc

Ryan Lowe doesn’t understand what makes Wigan Athletic, Wigan Athletic. Simple as that. #wafc

I couldn’t have said it better myself. My 83 year old dad, who’s been a latics fan all his life, left the game early today. I’ve never seen him do that in my 50 years watching!

We’ve seen worse teams over the years but there isn’t enough ‘likability’ in this #wafc setup. This doesn’t ‘feel’ like a #wafc team and Ryan Lowe doesn’t feel like a Wigan Athletic manager

This tweet has been doing the rounds on Twitter now that Nathan Gill has pleaded guilty. If only someone had tried to investigate UKIP & Russian interference 🧐 There’s another timeline where the Guardian supported me, doubled down on the investigation & I look 5 years younger ..

More deep insight from the hospital radio DJ who is somehow politics editor at the BBC.
Heads it's awkward, tails it's awkward for the prime minister

It feels like crunch time for Angela Rayner.

Plenty of folk at Westminster reckon today is the day her fate will be determined.

1) Get elected. 2) Remove rainbow flag from council building. 3) Scratch head with no idea of what to do next.

What do you think about the coking coal mine in Cumbria that was not given planning consent? You could argue that is strategically important to go with the steel plant.

Interesting. My son is a teacher in the north of England and he said it was the most realistic school depiction he’s seen on TV.

We can surely rule out stupidity, senility, madness and kompromat - can’t we? But what else explains Trump’s behaviour? My column. www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/views/69483/...

Donald Trump is surely not a Russian asset. But how else to explain his behaviour?
It’s difficult to make sense of the turmoil one man has unleashed on the world in five short weeks

I’ve finally logged out of Twitter this evening. I can’t face any more #wafc mindless negativity. I can accept the constructive criticism, but the mindless negativity is draining. I’m convinced some of them are bots from rival teams 😑

It’s a chicken and egg situation. Something has to be first. The contrast between home and away performances indicates what’s wrong, in my opinion. I’m not saying it’s easy and I am a fundamentally person ⚽️

5) Mock power. Fascists depend on the projection of invincible power. Take every opportunity to show the emperor has no clothes. Fascists depend on people craving proximity to power. Any sign of weakness is thus debilitating.
