Big shout out thanks to the two young women on the inhumanely crowded 2.15pm MCR Victoria to Leeds train today who made me laugh all the while we were standing sardines and looked out for me when I suddenly needed more air and ended up on the floor. Whoever you are - THANK YOU!
#Budget "Core inflation is now lower than in nearly half of the economies in the EU". AKA we're not even in the top 50%.
"Your Jeremy would have crashed the economy". Casually hoping nobody notices they did exactly this by snarking at Labour for it in the hypothetical.
Clowns.
"You've received money from someone who also gave money to a third party, so now we'lll invoice you for that third party's actions" is the weirdest logic I've ever seen. And, I'd imagine, would potentially be an extremely self-harming position for the Tories to adopt themselves.
I’ve written to @Keir_Starmer to request he pays for the criminal damage the Just Stop Oil attacks on the Energy Security Department caused this morning
As the political wing of Just Stop Oil, it is the Labour Party not the taxpayer that should be paying the bill
Hey @nextofficial. Suggestion to list full dimensions of luggage on your website. Better yet would be to set them as search filters. I can't order from you if I don't know which products would meet the airline's cabin size restrictions. ✈️
My dad died in an accident last week. Due to Covid, not allowed in mortuary to see his face one more time and face 5-week backlog for coroner JUST to decide if postmortem needed or not before we can say goodbye. Going through papers & found this. #NotMovingOn #NoconfidenceVote
Irony alert on #genderequality
This (and I wish I were kidding) is from the Equality and Human Rights Commission's website as an example of indirect sex discrimination - happily reinforcing the notion that childcare is a woman's job.
Jeepers creepers.

ALT Screenshot from the Equality and Human Rights Commission website of an example of indirect sex discrimination. The example reads: An employer decides to change shift patterns for staff so that they finish at 5pm instead of 3pm. Female employees with caring responsibilities could be at a disadvantage if the new shift pattern means they cannot collect their children from school or childcare.
My 6 year old just said all shopkeepers are criminals and should go to prison.
Why? Because they won't give you things unless you hand over money first. And that's blackmail. 😂
I daren't tell him that's how the business I named after him and his brother works. #CashForCopy
We're not all in the same boat, we're in the same storm. Some have OK vessels and are making do. Some have superyachts. Others barely have a lilo. Please do NOT use #autism this way. This has never been about anything but privilege, double standards & trying to get away with it.
That you can. 🙂
5yo: Miss M brought in a really funny book called Rover.
Me: About a dog with a pet human?
Him: Yes!
Me: Who gets lost at the beach?
Him: Yes!
Me: By @MichaelRosenYes
Him: Yes! How d'you know that?!

Amazing thread from @ashtongibbs. Love #Hull! 😍
If you've never been, you're missing out. And to all those graduating from @UniOfHull this week - huge, huge, huge congratulations to you all! Enjoy your big day - you've earned this.
I love that view from @HullUni_Library too. Also, excellent photographic proof that it isn't grim up north at all. @UniOfHull
I generally prefer universities in term time when they are full of students, but one of the nice things about the summer is being able to get space to work in @hull_libraries on the top floors by the window - such a view! #LoveMyJob @UniOfHull
Delighted to pick up the Renewables Education award at the Humber #renewablesawards for the @AuraLowCarbon Centre for Doctoral Training! Welcome team 💪 🌊
@UniOfHull
