This tweet has been doing the rounds on Twitter now that Nathan Gill has pleaded guilty.
If only someone had tried to investigate UKIP & Russian interference 🧐
There’s another timeline where the Guardian supported me, doubled down on the investigation & I look 5 years younger ..

I just attended a conference in the US. We had one speaker detained and two others turned away at the border.
There are great conferences and science in the US, but with the way things are right now, it’s too risky to attend.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A “TRADE DEFICIT”—IT’S JUST CALLED “BUYING THINGS.” YOU DO NOT HAVE A TRADE DEFICIT WITH YOUR DENTIST JUST BECAUSE HE NEVER BUYS ANYTHING FROM YOU.

Wow this is wild.
James: "The Trump team didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us."

I am shocked - shocked - that Steven Bartlett, who had ads banned by the ASA and has been accused of exaggerating his involvement in a multi-million pound business, has been sharing harmful health misinformation on his podcast. It's always the ones you least suspect!

Ever wondered why walking around museums is weirdly tiring? At normal speed our legs act like pendulums, swinging forward from the hip & saving us a huge amount of energy. In "museum shuffle" our muscles must do ALL the work of constant readjustment. So cake in the cafe is scientifically justified 🥳

Tesla Cybertrucks are being mistaken for trash dumpsters by raccoons, and they’re getting thrashed as a result. Honest mistake. 🤣
