Ok. So experienced #mastodon users, I was told today that I didn’t need to use C/Ws on my posts as I wasn’t sharing offensive material. Err no. But I thought the idea of them was to respect people’s interests and allow them the mental space to engage with what they want to engage with but scroll past what doesn’t interest them. Have I got that wrong? Please let me know.

There were “issues” in every department Raab worked in. Ministers witnessed his “bullying and intimidation” of officials.Shifty Sunak’s response?“I don’t recognise the characterisation of Raab’s behaviour.”Lying makes you talk such guff.

Siri, show me a headline that encapsulates the weapons-grade idiocy of Brexit and the cynicism of politicians willing to carry on damaging the country because they dare not admit how horrendously they’ve failed us.Here’s what I found:“Secret cross-party summit held to confront failings of Brexit”

Tories used the Covid tragedy to cream it off for their mates.Their spending on govt credit cards is up by 71% on 2010.And Johnson has taken up permanent residency in the trough.They are obscenely greedy and shamefully corrupt.Sunak talks of their 5 priorities. They only have one. Themselves. (Times)

If you have to rely on stoking up culture wars to get angry and fearful people to vote for you, then you’ve got less than nothing. Your policies have failed. You’ve tanked the economy. You’ve torched trust. You’ve shattered the social contract. You’ve broken everything you were supposed to protect.

A very good ‘rule for life’ from Martin Samuel in The Times.

They lied to get Brexit.Then they lied about the Brexit deal.And they lied about the queues and the costs and the red tape and the losses and the damage and the waste.And now they just keep lying to avoid admitting that it’s all so dismally shit.‘Global Britain’ is now rationing vegetables. FFS.

Brexiter, Steve Baker, says his ‘rebellions’ have taken their toll on his mental health. This is Steve Baker who knowingly cheated on campaign spending to get his Brexit result over the line.Do these people ever look beyond themselves and think about the harm they’ve done to the whole country, to its unity, prosperity, reputation, wellbeing… Because that really is the stuff of nightmares.

Two Times headlines today:“Migrants on small boats to be barred from Britain”And“Johnson nominates his father for knighthood”The Tory party is so morally broken, so corrupt, so prejudiced, entitled, greedy and cruel, it simply cannot see how repulsive it’s become.

Come on #BBC. You’re in such a tizz, you’ve forgotten what’s actually news.The news is that this Tory government uses language reminiscent of 1930s Germany and plans to break international law, breach human rights and detain and deport asylum-seekers.It’s not that Lineker said that.

Imagine putting yourselves in the history books as the PM or government that legislated to breach the Universal Declaration on Human Rights, the UN Refugee Convention and the European Convention on Human Rights.And you did it to dog-whistle for votes. The most squalid of legacies.

On the day Sunak tells us we should be embarrassed if we’re no good at maths, he gets investigated for failing to declare an interest in a company that stands to benefit from his new childcare scheme and in which his wife has shares.He should be embarrassed for being no good at integrity.
