1. Transfer the tens of billions earmarked for net zero to defence and supply chain resilience, to create a major industrial/defence sector, thereby creating skilled jobs in UK, rather than China (as net zero does)
2. Radical tough love welfare reform to get 1m people of working age into work, thereby cutting the welfare bill and increasing the tax base. Coupled with massive expansion of German-class STEM skill apprenticeships.
3. Radical reform of planning laws to stop nimbys/greens from thwarting every major infrastructure development. Put judges/courts in their place when it comes to such matters.
4. Put rocket boosters under high-speed rail link between Leeds-Manchester-Liverpool. Brook no opposition/delay.
5. Unleash North Sea oil/gas + slash energy bills by removing all green levies. New breed of gas-fired and smaller nuke generating stations.
Much more to suggest. But this should be good for starters.
Truly embarrassing interview by @missconniemac . Talking to Steve Clarke. My goodness.

The Times's Matthew Syed says constant leadership speculation is making it harder for Prime Ministers to make tough choices.

@MarkOgden_ lazy and inaccurate comments regarding Arteta as a player. Won the league with Rangers on the last day of the season and scoring in the process. I get that perhaps you don’t rate the league, but being able to deliver when it mattered cannot be questioned.1/2.
2/2 Given the pressure both he and his teammates were under. Perhaps you need to question your own standards and performance? @SkySportsNews
@CrossCountryUK your standards are shocking but I have to say consistent. A shocking journey to Birmingham on Tuesday from Motherwell. You’ve managed to repeat the experience by delivering the same standards on the return journey. Your front line customer facing staff
@Heidi_Labour what are you going to do to sort this mess out? And as importantly when? Both customers and frontline staff deserve better than the daily shambles that is @CrossCountryUK .
Deserve a medal for the amount of stress they’ll have to cope with daily. Your rolling stock is not fit for purpose and you don’t have enough of it to offer the level of service people, both customers and staff deserve.

Nigel Farage has kindly asked we stop sharing this video of him talking about why we should privatise the NHS 💙
You know what to do!

If Sam Darnold’s career embodies perseverance, so does his season.
He will simultaneously go down as the quarterback with the most turnovers this season… and the QB of the first Super Bowl champions to go an entire postseason without a turnover.
An incredible juxtaposition.
@BobandBerts was at your place in Falkirk today. Dreadful. Tables that were sticky to the lack of courtesy. Both ordered eggs Benedict. Given boiled , not poached eggs. Asked for extra black pudding which was tiny and overcooked, like the bacon which was burnt. 1/2

Bruce Springsteen on Trump: “I couldn't care less what he thinks about me. He's the living personification of what the 25th Amendment and impeachment were for. If Congress had any guts, he'd be consigned to the trash heap of history."
RETWEET if you stand with @Springsteen!
