I've written to the UK Statistics Authority regarding @NadineDorries's misrepresentation of official statistics on the ownership of Channel 4.
The Secretary of State claimed that 96% of people agree with privatisation. The Government's own consultation says the exact opposite.🤦

So the @WelshConserv leader now agrees with me @WelshLabour @UKlabour that Wales is being denied £billions from #HS2 project spend by the Tory UK government bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-poli… Time for the Tories to cough up if levelling up is to be more than an empty slogan
Wales loses £4.6bn of funding because the Tory UK Government says #HS2 is an England & Wales rail project🤷🏻♀️
The Tory Treasury says the Welsh economy will also suffer a £150m a year hit from HS2.
'Levelling up' will remain a empty Tory slogan unless the UK Government coughs up

New: Meeting with UK Foreign Secretary @trussliz and Irish counterpart @simoncoveney was "blunt".
Coveney tells me the message to Truss was "clear" from him, EU and US: you can't negotiate with the EU
on the basis of threatening them..

Johnson is one of the luckiest people ever to have lived but even a greased piglet eventually runs out of grease. People have made up their minds about him and aren’t changing them. If the Tories keep him, they’ll lose.

As I said to the PM weeks ago, it would be despicable for junior staff to get it in the neck if the leader got off scot-free.
In Downing Street there is a sense of injustice and considerable upset that the 126 Partygate fines have been levied disproportionately on women and junior officials. One source said: “the majority of [those fined] are very junior diary managers etc on 24k-ish and these fines…

The position of Foreign Secretary is one of the Great Offices of State. It requires tact, command of a brief, outstanding communication skills, and a real interest in the wider world. Here’s a look at recent incumbents, picking a random starting point of June 2016. THREAD.

“Nadine Dorries was appearing before MPs. The SNP’s estimable John Nicolson asked her how many people were against @Channel4 privatisation in her own survey. She was so confidently incorrect you’ll be laughing (and screaming) into next week.” @CommonsDCMS thepoke.co.uk/2022/05/20/nad…

Before Brexit, British citizens had the right to live and work in 32 countries (taking UK as one country), in most cases with the same basic rights as citizens of those countries. Now, they have the right to live and work in two countries. That seems like a worse deal to me.

Absolutely brilliant response from Ed Miliband. Totally floored pfeffel Johnson who had no answer to his attack. Shows what we lost when the country chose David Cameron ending in the tragedy of Brexit.
