We've paused 'Wokewatch' because the only people still trying to turn 'woke' into a pejorative are Suella Braverman & your Uncle Bob's Facebook friends. We are instead launching 'Unhinged Headline' of the day' & this is the first winner. Email address to follow for nominations... twitter.com/mrjamesob/stat…

Tory MPs in the House of Commons are currently competing to say the most callous & dehumanising things about asylum-seekers. Benton takes the lead with this abomination, just a week & a day after a far-right British terrorist firebombed a similar facility. Disgusting & dangerous. twitter.com/AdamBienkov/st…

Johnson didn’t just normalise bullying, he defended & promoted it by leaving Patel in the Home Office & accepting Alex Allan’s resignation. It would’ve been such an easy win for Sunak to turn the page but, even *after* sacking Williamson, he’ll be covered in the same corruption.

If you think Boris Johnson’s decision to give Gavin Williamson a knighthood was outrageous, wait until you see who he’s put/putting in the Lords…

Has anyone else ever left *three* separate governments in disgrace? Needs to be different Prime Ministers to qualify, obvs.

@mrjamesob
Anyway, back to the absolute disgrace of bringing Suella Braverman back in to the Cabinet six days after she was fired for gross misconduct…

Arrested, handcuffed & imprisoned for journalism. And yet when the Tory government seeks *more* powers to police peaceful protests, much of the media cheers them to the rafters… twitter.com/LBC/status/159…

One crucial point about PMQs is that the ebullience of your own benches is nowhere near as important as the moroseness of the other lot's. Textbook example here. twitter.com/BBCPolitics/st…

Absolute bollocks. They completely understood but thought they could somehow bullshit & bully their way to an alternative reality with the connivance of the right-wing media. And, for a while, they did. But here we are. twitter.com/DJBond6873/sta…

I suppose he could argue that the authors didn’t *believe* all the experts & well-informed people who explained exactly what would happen, but to argue that they didn’t ‘understand’ is truly pathetic. twitter.com/standardnews/s…

A bit surprised by the complete lack of schadenfreude at Trump finally being abandoned by Murdoch & falling apart in public. The number of still influential people in America & the UK who cheered on a blatantly dangerous & disgusting world leader remains absolutely terrifying.
