The work of Independent Sage kept me sane during the crisis. To have such insight, experience and wise words from so many, over a wide range of experts, was comforting that the country had so many good people arguing for a different paradigm. Thank you all.

Never trust a Tory. This country is still living with the damage they caused. Thousands died because they put Johnson in charge, and no amount of spin will ever rewrite that. #ukpolitics

Andrew Marr rolls out Nadine Dorries to defend Johnson, but attacks Cummings. Some things never change ๐Ÿคท

Yep, that's why I advocate for the principle first then argue over the system used to fulfill the principle.

The GOAT Award goes to Mary Bruce of ABC NEWS! What she did today was totally and unequivocally awesome and amazing! I saw it live. ABC should give her a goddamn raise for this.

Been calling for this since the mid 80s. LibDems messed up in the Coalition by focusing on a specific type of PR. Surely the better way is to vote on the principle first, then argue for the type of PR. However, I shall not see it in my lifetime unfortunately.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.

Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

This bitch chased teenage gun violence victims down the street calling them โ€œactorsโ€. Glad fโ€™ing them is a step too far for her, but โ€œdo not congratulateโ€.

Really good thanks. Always wanted to cross the Atlantic by sea. Stop off here today so some signal then back to communication black out until 15th. Enjoying the sun after an initial few stormy rough days . US auld salty sea dogs can cope though ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿคฃ

King Charles strips Andrew of prince title and ejects him from mansion Royal subject to โ€˜censures deemed necessaryโ€™ in sharp change of tone by Buckingham Palace

This is the Royal equivalent of the amputation of a gangrenous limb to stop the rest of The Firm getting infected.

An act of self-preservation.

If it was integrity, then they'd have booted Andrew out years ago.

They didn't.
