I don't suppose the Grand Old Duk of Pork wil be at the Senna Pod tomorrow.

Personally I have only ever met one person called Quentin. I was more friendly with his brother Jeremy. #bbcpm

If we take it that immigration and asylum are a bad thing. Leaving the ECHR wouldn't help. #bbcpm

Quentin who? #bbcpm

Adopting right wing policies merely boosts the appeal of far-right parties. Voters would rather have the real thing. #bbcpm

Instead of introducing 'tough new rules on immigration', we should be welcoming immigrants as a beneficial resource: people who come ready-skilled without us having to pay for their education. #bbcaq #bbcpm

Despite being a turophobe, I seem to end up having to pick up a lot of cheese products in the supermarket. #TheArchers

As a country our economy needs more fit young people. The right want us to have more babies because they hate immigrants. #bbcaq

Something funny about the political right. The want us to have more babies but they don't want to provide benefits for them. #bbcaq

Why does anyone see child benefit as a bad thing or something that should be limited? #bbcaq

Surely a reduction to VAT would be stimulatory and progressive. #bbcaq

This caller is having a Laff. The Laffer Curve - an elegant and useless idea waitingfortax.com/2015/09/07/l... #bbcaq

'Labour never being any good with money' is not supported by the proposition given. #bbcaq

It will be disastrous if Reeves repeats Dennis Healey's mistake of just putting an absurdly high rate of tax on high earners. #bbcaq

A bairrn is not to be confused with a burrn. #bbcaq

The likes of Nigel Farridge may be seen as 'heros' by some but they are headed to become zeros. #bbcaq

Musk is setting himself up for a big downfall. #bbcaq

Net zero is not unachievable and it is not making the country poorer. #bbcaq

Just been watching the third or fourth episode of Star Trek "Where no Man Has Gone Before". I don't think I had ever seen it before. Wondering when James R Kirk became James T Kirk?

Boris Johnson and figures linked to him are engaging in an effort to undermine the BBC’s leadership, insiders fear, after the leaking of a memo criticising its reporting of Donald Trump, trans rights and Gaza. www.theguardian.com/politics/202... #bbcaq

The only way the chancellor can save herself is to lower living costs or make big improvements to public services. Farage waits in the wings if not www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... #bbcpm

Hear, hear!

More suspected far-right extremists were referred to the government’s anti-terrorism programme Prevent last year than those suspected of Islamist extremism, annual figures show. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025... #Newsnight

Surely Alan should have poste 'Funeral in Progress' in large friendly letters on the church door? #TheArchers

Senior MPs who were the architects of the Labour welfare rebellion are to revive a powerful caucus on the party’s soft left to influence the budget and beyond, in a move likely to further unnerve No 10. www.theguardian.com/politics/202... #bbcpm

The decision to end Eurostar’s monopoly on cross-Channel rail shows that Britain is serious about growth (Virgin Trains on track to challenge Eurostar cross-Channel monopoly with access to key depot, 30 October). www.theguardian.com/business/202... #Newsnight

@sturdyalex Quatermass and the Pit was maee in colour. It is one of my favourite films.

Bonfire nights I recall from the 1960s and 70s were mainly cold and frosty - more recently they are just warm and wet. #bbcpm

Sounds like the new premature release is in fact an illegal immigrant. #bbcpm

The same people who react hysterically to immigration and asylum are making an issue about asylum seekers being wrongly released from prison but inappropriate prison releases are a wider problem.

Once a modest sign of remembrance, the poppy has increasingly been used as a prop for performative patriotism, and a way to gauge others’ loyalty to an ideal of national sacrifice. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024... #bbcpm

Why is it that, all of a sudden, the people being released inappropriately from prison are asylum seekers? #wato

The fact that a person might be claiming asylum is a red-herring. Prisoners should not be released inappropriately. #wato

James Cartilage? #wato

Why should concern over people being released inappropriately be limited to those who were asylum claimants? #PMQs

"The US doesn't need the ECHR" #newsnight

What an extraordinary thing to believe. #Newsnight

@dannyrobins.bsky.social Could there be a quantum explanation for the kettle translocating itself to the garden?
