If you, professionally, research public opinion and might have wanted to bid for the £840k that Dominic 'Eye Test' Cummings gave to his long time associates we at @GoodLawProject would very much like to hear from you.

It's worth remembering that a family going to nando's will receive more money from the government for one meal than a family on #UniversalCredit gets to feed themselves for a whole week #MealDeal

The only reason for a huge lorry park engulfing 22 acres of compulsorily purchased land where 1000s of lorries can wait for hours & hours for multiple copies of paperwork to be done is -
BREXIT.
Utterly pointless, wasteful, destructive Brexit. https://t.co/PF26yzoDlN

‘We’re still seeing the equivalent of 2 jumbo jets full of people being killed a week. And it’s avoidable. And to not speak about about that would, in my view, be entirely irresponsible.’

And 23 years ago he wrote a column where he dehumanised victims by saying: "Alright, I say, the fate of Srebrenica was appalling. But they weren't exactly angels, these Muslims". If ever there was a time for a full apology it is today. There needs to be more than just platitudes. https://t.co/RyUFaOPGzn

If your economy requires people to consume things they don't need or even want, and to do more of it each year than the year before, just in order to keep the whole edifice from collapsing, then you need a different economy.

Almost unbelievable G4S agrees a £44million settlement with the Serious Fraud Office for perpetrating a massive fraud on the Ministry of Justice! No one goes to jail & same company is awarded contract for new prison this week!

My Dad is deaf and worried about communicating with people in shops due to staff wearing masks.

One of the exemptions for removing a mask is when communicating with someone who needs to lip read.

Spread the word and help the 9 million people who are deaf or hard of hearing.

You're chancellor during a pandemic.

Do you:

a) use £1bn to help those who can't pay their rent & face imminent eviction

B) use £1bn to offer a stamp duty break to landlords, helping them out-bid first time buyers in the sluggish property market?@ThangamMP @AnnelieseDodds https://t.co/1B3ItQtfXA
