I always feel sorry for those I see who consistently choose to be negative towards others. #karma

What a double act. As Prime Minister @RishiSunak takes business leaders for fools chancellor @Jeremy_Hunt is out this morning doing the same with the public. Falling inflation just means prices are rising more slowly than than they we’re before - it does not mean that price levels are actually falling - so it won’t immediately help hard up families
Prime Minister @RishiSunak just took business leaders for fools by deliberately avoiding “Brexit” in his list of things battering the UK economy…right in the middle of a news & data deluge on how Brexit is battering the UK economy RT to let him know the game up!

Caroline Lucas - hits the nail on the head. Abstainers are cowards and complicit in what Johnson has done #ToriesOut347 #PrivilegesCommitteeReport #ToryCriminalsUnfitToGovern #Sunackered

Theresa May - "The privileges committee report matters, this debate matters & this vote matters. They matter because they strike at the heart of the bond of trust & respect between the public & Parliament, that underpin the workings of this place & our democracy"

Theresa May urges MPs to back the privileges committee report which she says would be a “small but important step” to restoring public trust in Parliament. Former PM says it is “doubly important” for Conservatives to be prepared to act “when one of our own is found wanting”.

Harriet Harman tells Jacob Rees Mogg that she offered to step aside if govt felt she was biased against Boris Johnson - but the offer was refused. "That's a mic drop, Rees-Mogg!" one Labour MP exclaimed.
Harriet Harman reveals she offered to step down as privileges committee chair if government did not have confidence in her after claims of “bias” over Partygate tweets. She says “I was assured that I should continue”. I’m told this was by the then-chief whip.

Everybody interested in truth, justice and the health of our democracy should simply look at the strength of the evidence in the Privileges Committee report. That's all that matters. Anything else is just noise and distraction.

Just heading into House of Commons for #PrivilegesCommittee debate. Any Tory MPs not turning up or abstaining in this debate - one which goes to the heart of defending democratic principles in this country - is guilty of not just cowardice, but complicity in Johnson’s contempt.

Indeed👇 Happy to listen and learn. Johnson may have left the building - but this remains a very raw issue with the public. Happy to confirm I will be voting to SUPPORT the Privileges Committee Report today.
'I am moved by what I hear.' After hearing from @SangitaMyska's listeners, Tory MP @Tobias_Ellwood vows to change his plans tomorrow to ensure he can vote in support of the Privileges Committee decision on Partygate.

Replying to @Mango
@Mango I updated my deliver/home address prior to placing order (and deleted old address) yet your order update shows you plan to deliver to my old address (I moved 3 years ago) and there is no way to correct the delivery address - please help

Raab allowed a free run at trashing a report he resigned over before his victims could even see it suggests his grip on issues of justice - er, his job - not his strong point. But also for Sunak, wasting the opportunity for a necessary reset with civil servants

My view on the Raab resignation - the PM has missed an opportunity to clarify the standards expected of ministers and to improve the tone of his government’s relations with the civil service, storing up problems for the future instituteforgovernment.org.u…

This escalated quickly. 2020: “Nurses are a national treasure, an indispensable resource” 2023: “Lets take the bastards to court”.
The NHS believes @theRCN’s upcoming strike action is illegal – so I am regretfully providing notice of my intent to pursue legal action. The details explained in my statement 👇(1/2)

Just a reminder as this dossier emerges - taxpayers are forking out for a £220K+ contract for Boris Johnson’s personal legal fees, as he attacks & undermines a cross-party Parliament Committee Inquiry carrying out the democratic will of a House of Commons he is not fit to be in.

On 20 May 2020 100 Downing Street employees were invited by email to "socially distanced drinks". Boris and Carrie went. Meanwhile my kids couldn't go to school, I couldn't visit my mother in her care home and a close relative had just had a funeral with nobody in attendance
