RT @DanielJHannan: A few commentators tried to warn during the lockdown that every day of it would mean more inflation, higher taxes and a slower recovery. They were called callous killers. Now, those who demanded the strictest possible restrictions rage about the consequences. Funny old world.

@OriginalWhig Most Whigs allied with the Conservatives as Liberal Unionists. The "and Unionist" bit of our party's title dates from their formal merger in 1912. Others were absorbed as Coupon Liberals and, later, National Liberals. We are a coalition of Tories and Whigs.

@OriginalWhig As Bill Buckley used to say, the one topic on which I am the world's leading authority is what I really think.

The LibDems are moaning because the Foreign Secretary spends too much time in the air. What next? That the Home Secretary spends too much time with the police? That the Defence Secretary spends too much time with guns?
Does anyone fall for this drivel?
RT @LibDems: Liz Truss is no different to Boris Johnson, who she backed to the end. Both are happy to fritter away the public’s money and take voters for granted.

@PreetKGillMP @VivekKhashu @SikhsAtWar Neither I nor the excellent @PreetKGillMP was around at the time. And it’s hard to prove a negative. But can we all agree that, if it didn’t happen, it should have?

RT @SCP_Hughes: Neasden Temple, London, 1995. I think of Ruskin's words on Rouen, that 'in all this ornament there is not one cusp, one finial that is useless... In those gray heaps of deep wrought stone... its builders have left us their adoration.'
