Well, slightly based on the poll and more based on the lovely comments… there will be some Christmas jokes throughout the day tomorrow. Usual rules apply - none of the jokes are original and if you are upset by any of them, or a politician tweeting them, please unfollow me!

Just running a short poll to help me decide whether to tweet a bunch of Christmas jokes to help celebrate the season. Those who have followed me for a while will know I tweeted a (terrible) joke a day for years previously.
So, should I tweet some jokes or not? Over to you:

NI households will receive help with their energy bills with a £600 payment beginning in January.
I am grateful that officials, Ministers & suppliers have found a solution, especially given the complexity of NI’s energy market, but I would rather this delivered by the Executive.
RT @NIOgov: NEW: All homes in Northern Ireland to receive £600 energy bills support this January 💡
A single lump-sum will be paid to every household irrespective of how homes are heated…
