#Conservatives now totally ungovernable. Two warring factions (One Nation v Brexiteers) under one political umbrella. UK needs centrist, stable leader to regain confidence in the UK ahead of next GE. The Brexiteer Singapore-on-Thames dream has died with #Truss

Bandstand made famous by #Keane destroyed by #StormEunice treatment: "Let's go down to the bandstand on the pier Watch the drunks and the lovers appear to take turns As the stars at the #SovereignLightCafé" @BBCNews #Eunice
Inconceivable tactical naivete from MUFC tonight. Surely the players practice playing 10 V 11? Absolutely no reason not to finish off a poor side even with one man down. The tendency to make poor sides look world-class is catastrophic
That was as bad an England performance as I’ve ever seen. Terrible terrible terrible

Yes, the Glazers and Woodward are structural problems. But we have a coach with no discernible style to his team. Having got to 1-1, MUFC should’ve controlled the game by reverting to a given style. We panicked because we didn’t know what to do.

MUFC fans shouldn't get distracted by the officiating. The point is that this side should have been out of sight against CPFC. But no energy, excitement. Nothing. Transfer policy should be to bring in the right players at the right time. This window has been another calamity
So the govt can break international law. But we must obey the law on social distancing. We’re back into #BarnardCastle territory here
With the Cabinet acting like spineless nodding dogs (“any parent would have done the same and it’s wrong to politicise” 🙄🙄🙄) over the #DominicCummngs #Domnishambles, it takes people like @maitlis to speak truth to power
I’d love to know which parts of the @maitlis intro were factually incorrect. I’ve rewatched and can’t see any. I’ll wait, thanks
The very idea that govt would create or run fake NHS staff Twitter accounts to promote propaganda makes my blood run cold. Someone does need to make a statement. This is either fake news or people need to resign
This is very sinister if confirmed. It's suggested the DHSC have set up a string of fake accounts using real NHS staff photos to promote propaganda. A Gov't minster needs to make a statement. Heads up for @mrjamesob if you've not already seen this.

Excellent work by my ex-colleagues @WTTC and the team at @HillsBalfour A brilliant, inspiring creative to get the Travel & Tourism community working as one. togetherintravel.com

So hold them to account for their evasions. Your paper has been and continues to be a leader for Boris and the Tories. The govt won’t change how it acts until the media changes what it accepts. Splash with a list of lies
If only our all politicians gave answers as honest and succinct as this. On coronavirus, when they explain they win, when they evade they lose.
Agree 100%. The only reason we’re not being asked to wear masks is because there aren’t enough of them - it’s a supply/procurement problem not an issue of science
Wearing face masks while travelling in London should be compulsory, city mayor Sadiq Khan has told the government bbc.in/3csaimm
I remember that look!

Great work from the @BrighterPR team. Well done
As people across the globe self-isolate, a new virtual world is evolving, consumers are reinventing their lifestyles, adapting behaviour & learning new skills. Our digital team has some guidelines to help adapt your social strategy for the COVID-19 crisis bit.ly/2yVld9q
Everyone would agree it's an absolute tragedy. We would also agree that the Govt hasn't been open enough about this aspect - why do only "hospital" deaths get reported daily. But only journalists are able to hold govt to account - PLEASE DO THIS FOR US ALL
This tragedy - 12 #COVID19 deaths in a single care home - is the more extraordinary, in that it is precisely two months since senior government members told me they understood and feared the impact on the frail elderly. Why not more preventative measures? itv.com/news/2020-04-12/twel…
Totally ridiculous govt policy on masks. Govt won’t endorse cos there’s not enough to go round - not because they don’t work. If they provide an extra 1% protection we should wear them. Ask people to use them as an ADDITIONAL form of protection not first line of defence #COVID19
Terrible click-bait from @MailSport In the absence of proper sports news they are literally just making up stuff for MUFC supporters to click. Shameful
If we spend £200m on Kane that’s damn right irresponsible. We could massively improve 3 areas for that with world class, non-selfish players.
Delighted to see both @carriesymonds and @BorisJohnson recover/ing. But the public can still be rightly horrified by the failure of the govt to provide proper PPE to healthcare professionals, sow confusion over testing, and adopt a scandaolously ruinous strategy
I cannot thank our magnificent NHS enough. The staff at St Thomas’ Hospital have been incredible. I will never, ever be able to repay you and I will never stop thanking you. 🌈
