People that can't believe a Prime Minister didn't have all the facts have not seen Yes Minister or The Thick of it.

BEYOND deplorable. From Forbes: "The Trump administration pulled $11 million in funding for a Catholic charity that offers shelter to migrant children, the Archbishop of Miami said in a column for the Miami Herald, amid a growing feud between President Donald Trump and the Vatican."

Maybe I am not thinking this wholly through but if Starmer found out this week then how could he do anything. Good managers delegate but they delegate to people they can trust, and that is Starmer's crime, appointing folk who keep stuff like this from him

Every available tax cent is currently being spent on the US military but not a penny in catering it seems

I spent ages the other night trying to master Tunisian knit stitch and it looked awful. Today I decided to retry Simple stitch, misread the instructions and lo, bloody perfect knit stitch. Ffs but also, hooray! 🧶

I hope he kicks him out. Or puts out a statement that just shows what an idiot JD is. Leo has been showing up Trump for a year now so maybe he can shift the focus.

aw fuck, we’ve got fraggles. they’re bigger than I thought. woke up last night to see one standing in the corner of my room, vaping

Post your favourite film from the year you turned 18

This is Sadie. She was finally reunited with her human, astronaut Christina Koch, after her mom’s voyage around the moon took her the furthest any human has ever been from their dog. She can't wait to hear all about the universe. 14/10 (IG: astro_christina)

I made the mistake of criticising US tipping culture on Reddit and now I have approx 1m people going into bat to defend employers paying $2 an hour while employees rely on the benevolence of customers to get paid. Which is insane.

Went for a walk and a pint and spotted the best example of free will I've ever seen

Your vote matters.

If any atheists or other non Christian’s are looking for more reasons to like the good egg that is Pope Leo, here you go.

So so happy to see this. My Hungarians friends refused to believe it until they saw Orban leave with their own eyes. Such was his grip on people.

The Iranian regime is absolute scum of the earth but I am also enjoying them making a monkey out of Vance. This truly is a war where I want both sides to lose in the most humiliating way possible.

Well how entirely expected

I just finished this shawl thing an hour or so ago. Quite happy with it, definitely going to use the yarn again. It’s one of the better “fake wool” acrylics and feels super soft. 🧶 #crochet

One of the things I love about crochet is trusting the process. 5 mins ago this looked like something dropped by a trawler and then suddenly, whoosh it was a thing. In other news I’m never making anything with yarn this thin again without new glasses and stadium quality lighting. 🧶

I can't stop laughing at this post. It's perfect.

OMG @lewisgoodall.com Cut this idiot off.

Follow this thread. Most likely, and of course, all speculation right now, this is why Melania did her 6 min statement today. Amanda Ungaro was brought here as a 17-year-old model. She flew to NYC on Epstein's private plane. 1/2

I love a bit of batshittery, Self Esteem and Lias Saoudi

I was wrong. This is solid gold. ICE just deported a very old friend of Melania. Melania didn't help her friend despite knowing ICE had her and now the friend (who also knew Epstein) is burning it all down on X/Twitter. See it all here (not X) nitter.net/AmandaUngaro...

I am not saying the Iran War is going badly for Donald but he just wheeled out his wife to make some weird statement to draw attention back to the Epstein files.

Keep up eh?

I see Mad King Donald has been given his phone again.

The money spent on planning and replanning this thing since the 1980s could have built an underground bullet train between every West Yorks town and village.

Happy 8th anniversary to the tweet that changed us forever. Look at this absolute unit.

So that peace lasted about 7 hours then?

I bet they were so so ready for that 40 min black out.

Ah it's fire season in Amsterdam where people learn the hard way that a BBQ, a roof terrace and drunk people are a fast way to become very homeless.

1974: the top marginal rate of UK income tax was 83% + 15% unearned income surcharge. There were no university fees & food banks, short NHS queue. Now top tax rate is 45%. 1% have more wealth than 70% of the population combined. 13.4m live in poverty, food banks everywhere, £292bn student debt.

I'll fight anyone with my bare hands who has a bad word against Dolly Parton.

I’m genuinely shocked that this was about someone other than Trump. I guess this is the current success personality.

My hot take is that long term the French Revolution succeeded and the American Revolution failed.

But he is probably 100% accurate…..

Can everyone stop saying he’s died until there’s a BBC or Reuters link. I cannot take this sort of emotional rollercoaster at this time of an evening. I want to go to bed ffs

One day, "It" will happen, by which I mean sudden and unexpected news that you want to celebrate. In such cases, you will want the right outfit. 🧵

Remember he died for our sins

Happy Easter!

Cat brought a shrew in this morning that was shrieking. It weirdly sounded exactly like the end of Josh Wink’s Higher States of Consciousness. 8 yr old thought i was mental until I played it and now she calls shrews “Techno Mice”. It’s been a morning already yet it’s only 10am 😂

Still making me laugh 8 years later

OK for fun: top funniest tweet ever? I am torn between "moon's haunted" and "Denise I was at your wedding."
