It certainly raises questions as to why Robbins’ account of the (oral) vetting recommendation differs so markedly from the written version of the vetting recommendation.

If you genuinely believe this, I feel sorry for you - it means you’re either really dumb or you’ve lost your humanity.

A good find. Well done! What an utter imbecile that guy was!

Hilton used to be one of UK PM David Cameron’s strategic adviser. He was a dim-witted, over-confident twerp, widely ridiculed for his preposterous, ill-considered mutterings. I doubt living in the US will have improved him. Avoid! Avoid! Avoid!

You’re free to disagree. Committing little or nothing to writing on a matter so sensitive is not punctilious, in my view. I consider it implausibly careless.

Punctilously? Yet OR committed so implausibly little to writing, even though his account of the DV conclusion differs so markedly from the written evidence in the hands of the Foreign Affairs SC? I have no time for the PM, but OR was evasive and implausible on such core points.

One of the things most shocking about Robbins’ testimony this morning is how suspiciously few notes he actually took during this episode.

Green supporter here: grow up. Sadly, there’s no one, except perhaps Miliband, on the Labour front benches who would be any better - no depth of field, and we don’t need another leadership contest.

Focus on making yourself credible and electable - you still seem like a student campaigner.

Was Matthew Doyle a known associate of a paedophile when Starmer made this request to find him such a role?

Israeli breaches of international law, up to about 10-15 years ago, were rarely reported in US media. Ha’aretz was far more critical than the NYT. Now social media means Israel and the US press can no longer hide Israel’s actions from young Americans.

We can’t trust Palantir with our NHS data Is this really the company we should be entrusting with our health service’s digital architecture?

"Palantir is not just a problem of profiteering from our national healthcare system— it's a fundamental threat to the democratic control of our public infrastructure + the privacy of every citizen. By giving our taxes to this company, we are aiding their operations everywhere."

We all need to lodge an official complaint. It takes no time at all, and I've dropped a link to BBC Complaints in the comments. This is shocking.

American Catholics aren’t really Catholics at all, are they!

No Cards, huh?

Here it is, my annual reminder: don't spray spring dandelions with roundup. One flower can be visited by 100+ bees in a day, and your chemicals will kill all of them. 🌻

Utter savages.

I hope he’ll choose the New Testament verses about the Royale wit’ cheese.

After watching the film Dark Waters, I got rid of all my non-stick cookware and replaced them with safe alternatives.

You’ve been very badly brought up and even more poorly informed.

UNICEF ‘outraged’ by killing of Gaza water truck drivers, urges investigation The UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF) has raised alarm over the killing of two contracted workers delivering clean water to families in the Gaza Strip.

Why exactly is Israel still killing people in Gaza? How is this "defending Israel"? On average, the IDF has killed 37 women and children a day in the war. It has been over one thousand days, so 37,000 women and children killed. news.un.org/en/story/202...

What should have happened: the REIT paid no tax but the Tice companies holding shares in the REIT paid £98k tax on the dividends they received. What actually happened: none of the companies paid any tax.

A 🧵 with the evidence:

China's electrification bet is paying off. Electricity now accounts for 30% of its energy consumption - 50% higher than the US or Europe.

With 1/3 of global renewable energy capacity already installed, China is structurally more insulated from rising oil prices than most Western economies.

Two nights ago, Russia sent nearly 700 drones and dozens of missiles at Ukrainian civilians. In the fifth year of the war, aerial attacks on Ukrainian civilians have become even more intense and more frequent. Please join me in this campaign for air defense equipment. You can help protect lives.
