In case anyone was ever in doubt about how unrepresentative First Past the Post is I did some oversimplified analysis of it based off the currently published vote shares (649 of 650 declared). It doesn’t matter left, right or middle, FPTP is unfair.

"I am confident Rwanda is safe for people" says @OliverDowden MP - despite the Home Office equality impact assessment from last year saying there are 'concerns' over the treatment of LGBTQ+ people there.

This stagnation in productivity, was a choice, it was austerity.
The Conservative party cut funding to public services instead of investing in them.
A sobering graph in the FT this morning. This is the real world consequence of poor productivity growth - a decade & a half of stagnant wage growth.
Nothing will change unless we do things differently.

Here's a version where I've added 2C and 3C...
One of a handful of climate graphs that stick with me. Stable climate allowed farming instead of hunter-gathering, which enabled cities and our global civilisation. It's utter hubris to assume that driving the climate well outside this stable range isn't existentially risky.

Goebbels claimed concentration camps were luxury
Gyms, Tea party, Sunday lunch, Nice rooms
A complete lie
@SuellaBraverman is no different
Refugees sent Rwanda by other countries, once the media looked away, where beaten & raped, when they escaped, many were sold into slavery
I was honoured and humbled to visit the Kigali Genocide Memorial today, paying tribute to the victims who lost their lives during the Genocide against the Tutsi @Kigali_Memorial

I visited Bwiza Riverside Estate today to see new homes that will be available to accommodate those relocated from the UK as well as Rwandans.
Thank you to everyone working on this impressive project and congratulations to the new graduates of the scheme’s construction course.

Ooo, I hadn't considered this. The ICC warrant cements the sanctions somewhat.
Further incentive for Putin to be defenestrated by someone.

This Tomlinson bloke and the Fake vicar have such deeply odd views. Gilead level stuff. Find it disturbing to think they are afforded a platform and you have to wonder if either of them have ever spoken to a woman.
This is mind boggling.
Next time I post on Insta, might add one raised finger by way of tribute to these views 🖕🏻
On a serious note, boys need more good role models and fast.

The wilful ignorance of a misogynist.
Intentionally ignoring any fact that would contradict their hate.

An overzealous inspector makes the rating flawed. But even if it were accurate, the process is clearly not fit for purpose if it puts this level of horror on the staff
If we want schools to be better, we need processes to work with, not attack leadership

There should not be a restriction on constituents' ability to hold a recall election. Other than the size of the petition.
A general election may not be called, but individual MPs, absolutely should.
E.g. If a petition is signed by 50% of total votes cast in last election.

I am one of the players you wrote about. It's sad to read this. I have a question how come BBC choose to interview the male coach who left us behind and didn't fight for us? we as women were at the risk, and now he is saying we don't deserve to be safe?

165k social care vacancies right now. That's more than the total number of doctors employed by the NHS just in vacancies.

The replies to this are going to heinous.
An online conspiracy theory claims without evidence that COVID-19 vaccines are killing people.

Put this into scale for those in the UK who want to deny help to even refugees.
The immigration is massive, and we are grateful to all the states helping Belarusians to live in a safe place. Yet, our biggest wish is to come back home and develop our own country - independent and free from dictatorship.

She is determined to ruin Harry Potter for all people who it resonated with being a misfit and valued.
In JK Rowling's latest - and potentially most bigoted and dangerous - diatribe against transgender people and the LGBTQ+ community, she implies that Harry Potter's Death Eaters were stand-ins for queer people campaigning for equal rights.
Yes, really. Buckle up 🧵
