Boris Johnson sells UK to dodgy Middle East regime with even worse attitudes to Human Rights for a few bob, the money to be invested in ... Let me guess. Weapons factories?
In return we shall, let me guess... Commit to buying Qatari oil and aviation fuel for decades?

RT @LBC: 'If it is true that Boris Johnson said that - I think that is tantamount to misconduct in public office, I think it's borderline corrupt.'
Iain Dale reacts to the PM allegedly telling Sue Gray there was no need for her to publish her full partygate report.

Someone should explain to the authorities in Texas about what guns do, and how to prevent it happening.

But why did they get away with it? Why did the police turn a blind 👁🗨? Why have they let them off more lightly when their offence is much worse? Students here were fined £10,000 and expelled from the university. The PM should receive no less a penalty. Arguably much much harsher.
RT @Anna_Soubry: Reckon the truth is that from the outset No 10 led by #BorisJohnson never followed the #Covid rules they imposed on the rest of us.…

RT @TomLondon6: 2. The day AFTER Johnson was found by the Supreme Court to have unlawfully suspended Parliament
1. He said court "was wrong"
2. Tory MPs clapped him in Commons
3. Most newspapers said "Good old Boris"
4. @BBCLaurak said "this changes nothing"

RT @michaelsavage: I really think the idea of people “making fun” of the No10 custodian who questioned the party is such a damning detail - shows that in the moment, it was seen as wrong - and has that “the little people” dismissal. We haven’t heard the end of that one. #panorama #partygate

RT @natalieben: 🏫 With the #SchoolsBill #Government are blindly digging in deeper on a failed policy of forced academisation.

RT @carla_denyer: Renewables should not be liable for a #WindfallTax
And we can't allow the fossil fuel industry to hide behind a façade of clean energy investments (often tiny compared to their investment in new oil & gas extraction) to avoid it.

RT @GreenpeaceEU: Where does the EU's grain go today? Less than a quarter of it feeds people
While Ukraine loses massive amounts of wheat, the majority of grain next door in the EU is used for animal feed – or even burned as fuel
It's time to feed people, not factory farms

RT @eddwilson: The Johnson-Gray meeting shouldn't have happened, but if there isn't a proper record of the meeting (who called it, full minutes) between a prime minister and a senior civil servant, then the reorganisation of the No 10 power base needs to start with the absolute basics
