Every day, trump becomes more and more unhinged, displaying his unfitness for the job of President. Berating a female reporter doing her job is MORE PROOF that he doesn't respect women.
"Quiet! Quiet Piggy!"
I totally believe he's guilty of vile acts in the Epstein files.

I don't know how typical this is, but the fact "none/don't know" polls close to 50% on every issue except immigration feels to me like a huge failure of public discourse. (And Reform aren't seen as better than the others on any issue except the one that's been allowed to dominate that discourse.)
We asked the public which political party has the best policies on a range of issues🧵

Definitely just saw Alok Sharma on the train home. A blast from the past. I wonder if he, too, got caught in the dangerous crush at the gates because GWR is so awful at crowd control.

The NHS needs to do another coughs and sneezes spread diseases campaign – the flu vaccination one is not doing enough. People are out here coughing uncovered into other people's faces🤢, taking whole teams out of commission. It's as if we never had a pandemic? They've forgotten everything we learned.

I'm too broke for Charlotte Tilbury, but opt me the hell in for the ads because I will happily watch Céline Dion serve looks on repeat all day

Look, I love crochet, but making 3 out of 4 weeks heavily dependent on crochet in a competition called BRITAIN'S BEST KNITTER is actually ridiculous. It's not fair on the contestants and it makes knitting seem like it's incapable of being versatile enough for the show, which is b*llox.

So they finally gave me access to the tools I was having to wait on others to use. A system they claimed was really hard and going to take ages to implement, and have therefore kicked down the road for eight months, I have thrown together myself...in three hours.

Don't let anyone tell you EDI training is a waste of time, because how are we four weeks post the Language of Race training and in the Language of Gender training, TWO people are using that South African C word to describe me in the meet and greet icebreaker?? Going to print no-no flashcards!

Don't trifle with Elizabeth Line drivers because they will rinse you 💀
All trains had to go slow because of "young people messing about on the platform," and as they boarded our train, the driver addressed them directly over the tannoy saying you were caught on CCTV and you will be fined.

The music 😭
Now we're approaching Suspiria levels of nutty!
You know what, I think this needs a presenter duo. It needs more background tomfoolery and commentary because knitting is a quiet activity and these contestants don't even like each other. Bring Joe Lycett in. That'll do it.

That dog looks *mortified* and these judges are giving "what if someone fed AI GBBO and The Great Pottery Throwdown and asked it for a new competition show?" You can't steal Keith's crying bit. Get your own signature gesture. And idk, I hate the sofa, I like personal space🥲

I don't know how I feel about crocheting being tied into a show with the tagline Britain's Best Knitter. What if you're an alright crocheter but not that great a knitter?
