RT @tomhfh: “Police have decided that it’s serious enough and flagrant enough for them to investigate. It’s the worst possible outcome.”
“Cabinet need to look themselves in the mirror and ask themselves why they’re still supporting this Prime Minister. There’s a police investigation.”

RT @DPJHodges: Just one thing. Starmer supporters furiously saying "Wait for the outcome of the investigation!!!!". But Keir Starmer didn't say we should wait for the outcome of the investigation. He said the fact Boris was being investigated by the Met was enough for him to resign.

This is preposterous. Durham police, like the Met, have caved into political pressure to interpret the rules in a way that no one understood them at the time. What kind of banana republic are we, using retrospective investigations to pursue political opponents?
RT @TelegraphNews: 🚨Durham Police will investigate Sir Keir Starmer over 'beergate' allegations, the Telegraph understands.

Delighted that Cumberland is making a comeback as a political unit. God, Edward Heath was responsible for some abominations.

Not a great night for the Tories. And Labour continues on its trajectory towards becoming a London party, as confined in its geographical reach as the SNP or Mebyon Kernow.

Can gloom cause recessions? Might fear of the impact of the Ukraine war matter as much as the disruption itself? Here is a brilliant new academic paper by my @UniOfBuckingham colleague @alikabiri2001 and others, analysing the role of psychology in markets. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/ehr.13160

With all the data in, it turns out that excess deaths in Britain were lower than in Germany, but higher than in Sweden. So much of what we were told at the time turns out to be nonsense.
RT @mroliverbarnes: 🚨NEW🚨 An estimated 14.9mn excess deaths occurred in 2020 and 2021 due to the coronavirus pandemic, according to the @WHO.
That figure is nearly 3 times higher than the official count of 5.4mn confirmed fatalities at the end …

I realise this is counter-cyclical, but I am on my way to #VoteConservative because I want low council tax and weekly bin collections, and because @MariaHigson is a superb candidate. I also think Boris is a million times better than the other guy, but that’s another story.

Wonderful to see many dear friends at the #Eid celebration in Downing Street - hosted by @BorisJohnson who, on top of his many accomplishments, is the grandson of a Hafiz.

@bbcnickrobinson Oh, I don’t deny that for a moment. I’m just making the point that abstract nouns can’t pay taxes, and that we should all - broadcasters and politicians especially - be careful about our phraseology. Thanks for responding; I always enjoy listening to you.
