There’s never any recognition from these stupid Tories that most people claiming benefits are actually in work. It’s almost like they’re just trying to demonise recipients as lazy skivers… #r4today

They’re also having a potty training drop-in session. Urgh.

Describing potty training as a right of passage was not the best choice of words. #r4today

How long before Badenoch claims her childcare subsidy for the well off plan has been misrepresented?

“Britain is on the slide” says one of Britain’s richest, tax dodging, wealth extractors. Arsehole. #r4today

Immigrant Joy Morrissey MP has a problem with immigration. I wonder what difference she perceives? #bbcaq

You can tell Farridge is trying to hold in his tantrum by the way he keeps lifting his heals off the floor and flexing his toes in his man-of-the-people handmade shoes. #bbclaurak

Farridge’s suit makes him look like he works in a holiday camp and is about to judge the knobbly knees competition. #bbclaurak

#bbcr4 Dead Ringers evidently think everyone ‘oop North’ (as southerners would say) has a Yorkshire accent.

The party that not only brought us Truss and Johnson but made them Prime Minister is in no position to lecture anyone on the quality of their MPs. #bbcaq

I guess Farridge might’ve been hacked. When he received an unsolicited email from a far off country offering to put £5m in his account in return for his bank details, he probably thought it sounded reasonable.

I have some skepticism. He’s still a deficit hawk. Deficit hawkery has got us in this mess.

Yet none of them will ever tell us which mystery regulations they would ‘reform’.

Helen Whately: we would prune The Magic Regulation Tree. The crackpot Tory/Reform/Blair remedy for everything. (Only regulations that protect the plebs, btw) #r4today

Tony Blair might be Britain’s most electorally successful Labour PM, but his brain has been baked by his proximity to international “think” tankery. He’d get nowhere electorally with his beliefs these days. #r4today

Also, deliveries are generally pretty mundane. People want something bigger. It suggests same-old-same-old.

Yes, these figures never take into account all the places that have opened that are to all intents and purposes ‘pubs’ but not in a pub building. Most traditional pubs are old, draughty and too big so they’re too expensive to heat and run these days.

“We’ve learnt the lessons. It’s a new Conservative Party” says Badenough. While trotting out all the same Tory nonsense that gave Labour a landslide. They’ve learnt absolutely nothing. #r4today

Badenough translation: “We must always punish the poorest.” Same old Tories. They’ve learnt nothing. #pmqs
