Given the sheer volume of taxi drivers in London no one should use a driverless cab unless for some medical reason. Why would Londoners take money from the pocket of fellow Londoners and give it to American vulture capitalists?

One of the first "outrageous" claims I saw as Jason Arday's media hounding unfolded was that he ran 30 marathons in 35 days! Wow! What a thing to claim! And the newspapers all suggested there was no evidence he actually did it. Well, they clearly didn't look very hard 🙄 🧵 1/26

That meme about words doing heavy lifting? ‘Set’ here means ‘possibly in 5 billion years’ and ‘collide’ means waft across each other like the smoke from two cigarettes at opposite ends of the bar.

The Telegraph has deleted, without fanfare, the word ‘living’ from the headline of Stephen Daisley's article on Professor Arday. Today, it just reads “Jason Arday is proof that you reap what you sow.”

The USA spreading illness and disease throughout the world isn’t a side-effect. They reject vaccines, aid, research, collectivised health etc because they allow the poor and weak to sidestep their evolutionary fate, death and extinction.

The bit of untaxed wealth that’s harming us most is the rise in property values, a rise the government created and seeks to maintain above all. A yearly tax on that what energise the economy.

How can an England team not play Saka? And ‘Madeuke didn’t produce an end product’ but at least he kept the ball up that end (he did more than that but he was being set-up as the weakness that stopped England romping home). He stretched the game. V Argentina we were squashed.

Crypto literally means dark, obscure. Crypto was set up to hide money from banks and tax. And we’re debating whether political parties should be able to get money from unverified sources designed to circumvent democracy.
