So we’re loving the work of our friend @preece_zoe which is very delicate, considered, meditative work on the overlookedness of the every day, those moments of invisible in-between. And she’s got her work in the British Ceramic Biennial @BCBfestival coming up in September, wow!!! https://t.co/0eQiF13QvZ

I asked BBC director general about this at panel event couple of months ago & he said he would convene meeting on issue. No idea if that happened but TaxPayers Alliance & IEA & others still being given platform on weekly if not daily basis with zero explanation of who funds them https://t.co/JOogSdqtOd

The Leave campaign claimed #Brexit would save the NHS

But Home Office plans to end freedom of movement will do the opposite
65,000 EU citizens work in our NHS. It couldn't cope without them.https://t.co/9ZUSVIsGWN
All those sanguine about no-deal should have to sit in or shadow the rest of us working on it in planning meetings every day. Especially in/around Northern Ireland. Feeling pretty overwhelmed just from that alone. Optimism seems only to come from those removed from dealing w/it

“Bloody Remainers! Stop patronising people and telling them they didn’t understand what they were voting for!”
Also Brexiters:
“We can’t share details of No Deal warnings as people will misunderstand them” https://t.co/OBr12rM1ga
Lamentable that John Humphries again says on @BBCr4today that the EU “will cave at 11th hour.” This single error, based on total lack of grasp of the four freedoms, in not understood in the UK partly as Brexit editors have not told their readers. Or even know themselves....

Tragic to see a charlatan prime minister go to Berlin & Paris with one objective: to plead for terms to make Britain as weak as possible in order to keep him in office

The latest @BorisJohnson tweet got thousands of retweets & likes within an hour. However, when you check the accounts retweeting/liking it,many have no or very few followers, never tweeted themselves, brand new accounts. Who is paying for the many thousands in The Boris Bot Army? pic.twitter.com/yatiNnXx5h

What a farce. By relying on "determination" to replace the backstop, Boris Johnson has in fact exposed his desperation, as he admits to the EU that he has absolutely no idea what he's doing. There's only one "alternative arrangement" to the backstop: remaining in the EU. pic.twitter.com/i4FFlntkOC
