Happily re-learning the value of expertise, courtesy, and humour after the barking years.
The Conservatives spent 14 years riffing on Liam Byrne's Treasury note, Badenoch even mentions just now "we were left with no money". No wonder they think they can get away with anything. #r4today
Earlier, I got to see the result following my 999 call on Wednesday, and it's pretty bad - this wasn't even the worst fire the LFB were dealing with in view from our back window.
Dunwich Heath is on fire but no news on whether Allister Heath has self-combusted yet. #r4today
Kemi Badenoch cant even do bi-partisanship within her own party, so her offer on social care fools no-one - apart from the BBC, obv. #r4today
Something #r4today and BBC News more generally might like to consider in their daily work.

I get "Monzo me" so often from my kids, I got the youngest one of these for Christmas last year.
There's a blonde Nazi type working out of the State Department whose job it is to support far-right dissent in European countries. Im sure the BBC know this, too. #r4today
Danny Kruger immediate reaction to Emma Barnett's "arsehole" interview #r4today
Don't know the crim who dumped and torched this car in dense wood on my morning dog walk, but have they ever considered a career in rally driving?
"Im from the government and Im here to help...you to government money for trying to overthrow the government". @lbc.co.uk
I recently found this amazing snippet about Mars exploration on the front cover of the Daily Mail from 1969. Consider this a warning from history.
LBC's Andy Marr only too pleased to nail his knackers to Farage's mast on Friday.
I kept a copy of the Karl Popper cartoon regularly found on Twitter just for days like these
Reform paid for a 4-page wraparound advert with the local newspaper last week, so that probably helped.
