All the #Fulham players touch is bloody criminal. Only Fulham players who look like they can control a ball & make a pass all used to play for #Arsenal .

Court Backlog due to 1) Lack of Barristers to do criminal defence & Prosecution due to poor pay 2) Courts don't sit 5 days a week or all year 3)CPS is understaffed & causes delays 4)Police are understaffed & investigations especially if search of Laptops,Phones & S&M is required. #PoliticsLive #wato

Look at what's happening in #USA with #Trump clamping down on visas. Also revoking #Greencards for social media posts. Surly British Embassy can start reaching out to US Hospitals & Teaching Hospitals targeting non-US citizens doctors offering the fast track jobs in #NHS.

Question #Venezuela situation raises is which one is paper tiger? So #Trump / #USA want to overthrow Venezuela Gov & effectively take country. You know like Russia in Ukraine. Biggest investor in Venezuela is China, if China can't protect Venezuela can #BRICS protect anyone? #Newsnight #r4today

Can we send ##NigelFarage to #Russia? Basically we should encourage this maron whose currently on #WATO to recruit as many UK lunatics who'er currently hidden in UK spouting nonsense to goto & Russia & become #Putin cannon fodder.

It's surprising how much time #r4today spend on Newspapers, they're obsessed with them. Why are they prepared to waste time on newspapers that are at best an dying if not dead media format & how #bbcnews allows newspapers with a dwindling readership to set BBC news agenda.

Either I've forgotten what words mean or #R4today are all idiots. My mortgage is a debt my saving for my pension is a funding requirement. Nick Robinson is trying to claim not having enough for mortgage would be fincical black hole but not enough for pension wouldn't be one.

Why is #RachelReeves talking about herself? Talking about people underestimating her , no one cares about her struggles. Either #Reeves is good at her job or she isn't & she clearly isn't up to being the Chancellor.

#RachelReeves is clearly not waving but drowning on #bbclaurak. Geoffrey Howe used cricket metaphor of "sending opening batsmen to the crease, only for them to find their bats have been broken before game by the team captain". That's what
#KierStarmer did to #Reeves with his commitment to #Brexit

There's many famous #Arsenal fans it was reported our late Queen Elizabeth was a Gunner. Out of all my fellow Gunners Piers Morgan is the worst & thats even allowing for fact Osama bin Laden used to regularly go to Highbury. Good lad Osama but his hatred of #Spurs was a bit much.

Seriously #bbclaurak it's not on having #RachelReeves & #KemiBadenoch facing each other like an disgruntled wife & a angry mistress. Reeves & #KierStarmer just don't do politics well.

I love the fact #KimKardashian did a law apprenticeship a few years ago claimed she wanted to be a lawyer. She qanted to campaign for the falsly convicted. Then she thought screw that I'm a billionaire. I'll play a lawyer in my #AllsFair TV show. I'm guessing the falsly convicted stay in jail.

Having watched #Leeds vs #ManchesterCity. Leeds got what they deserved unfortunately for #Arsenal. When Leeds thought they'd no chance they played brilliantly, when they played to win, they played better. When they tried to hold on you could see instantly they were doomed & played badly.

Isn't this amazing #Airbus discover an issue with A320 family & Airbus fix the problem. Hey #Boeing did you hear Airbus engineers found an issue & Airbus management said great lets rollout a fix & let our customers know. How do those crazy Europeans do it without a few crashes & denials.

I've a cunning wheeze, we seen #Trump deranged comments about foreigners & revoking #Greencards. I bet there's quite a lot of Doctors & Nurses in USA from 3rd world countries. #NHS needs medical staff. UK Embassy should making it clear Britain is great & we play cricket & drink tea. #r4today

This #RachelReeves interview is painful. The problem for any UK Gov is if you're not prepared to cut welfare. You must incentivize employers to hire people who'er long-term unemployed or on sickness benefits. UK political parties seem to only do more tax or more cuts.

Sounds like #OBR had hidden link on their website to their #budget report. Someone external probably just set browser to look at website source code & then could see the hidden link. Or other senerio is OBR thought they hadn't uploaded the Budget when in fact they did. #r4today #PoliticsLive

Is what #NigelFarage said at school relevant now? Depends, if I talked about sexual abusing children while a schoolboy & it was a recurring theme. It might not be relevant to my life as an adult. However if I was running a kindergarten it might be worth social services & parents having a look. #wato

If #RachelReeves employer #NI increase caused a rise in unemployment because of increased cost to businesses. Won't increasing #minimumwage also have the same effect? Surely Reeves either had to do the employer NI or higher minimum wage but not both?

#NigelFarage saying he has never directly racially abused anyone. Is like Rose West wife of notorious UK serial killer Fred West saying she never directly killed anyone. I'd say if #Corbyn was too antisemitic to be PM clearly Farage is the same?

#Everton Gueye sent of for hitting Everton player Michael Keane in face. More of push than slap but to face. Keane kind of provoked it by putting his head forward into Gueye face but no contact. After card Gueye loses plot & has to be restrained. Not sure they can both stay at Everton.

Guy on #C4News from Copenhagen saying Europe needs 20K troops to give security guarantees to #Ukraine. He his having a laugh only 1 country in EU could put that many battle ready troops in field within 48Hrs & thats France. If UK did this that would be everything we had.
