There are respectable arguments for giving targeted aid to people on low incomes during the fuel crisis. There are no arguments for trying to fix prices across the board.

"My views are practical common sense. Yours are ideological". Twitter really is a petri-dish containing every common fallacy.

We now have the combo that central banks thought couldn't happen - spiralling inflation AND a contracting economy.

When journalists ask ministers what they are doing to help, they invariably want them to tax and spend more. Are there no other forms of help?

That escalated quickly.
RT @JayinKyiv: Putin's chief propagandist Solovyev says that EU failing to issue visas to Russians may cause Russia to commit "a preventative nuclear strike".
WE HAVE FOUND PUTIN'S ACHILLES HEAL.

The one thing worse than a privatised energy company is a nationalised energy company.

The most depressing thing about the episode is the utter lack of interest, on all sides, in whether Trump has in fact broken the law. America’s descent into tribalism continues.

Trump should be treated like any other US citizen. Ex-Presidents don't (and shouldn't) have any special status in law. The FBI might indeed have screwed up. God knows it wouldn't be the first time. But if Trump has broken the law, he should expect the same as any other criminal.

Let’s have no more negative briefing from either campaign team. There’s a general election to win after this is over.

My friend Rory is raising money for Scotland's Charity Air Ambulance (@ScotAirAmb). He is trying to reach 100 Scottish castles by bicycle in one week, covering similar daily distances to the Tour de France. Please help him support this fantastic cause. https://gofund.me/6301cb60

@isaacclay170493 @timjames16 @ClarkeMicah Maybe a dozen of us were vocal in the first week of the lockdown. Here is what I wrote on 22/03/2020: "A total shutdown is literally lethal. Loosening the restrictions as soon as possible is not just a question of freedom or of economic growth; it is a question of basic welfare."

RT @LanceForman: @DanielJHannan Absolutely right Dan. And consequently consumers get hit as businesses are forced to increase prices to cover the cost. My business had to do precisely that.
The cap must go, subsidies must go and competition should be vigorous.
And we need to frack, like there’s no tomorrow.

@Madz_Grant The lyrics of Greased Lightning are also pretty shocking if you last watched the film in childhood.
