    Dear @trussliz / @RishiSunak the cost of living crisis has left millions worried how they'll make ends meet. I'd like to formally invite you, as the new PM, to join me asap once you take office for a special hour's @itvMLshow discussion/Q&A to answer/ease people's concerns.

    I do roll my eyes when I hear "I don't know what I'm doing here" on #ImACeleb. It's an entertainment TV booking. You're on there for one or more of... 1) a paycheque 2) to boost your profile 3) to rehabilitate your image Simples

    I feel near tears after doing my show. I started doing what I do out of a passion for financial justice & providing solutions. To be unable to help a single mum who lost her partner in covid afford her energy bills leaves me feeling impotent. I'm shaking Intervention is needed

    Thanks so much to the few attacking me as a 'sell out' after summarising that the Chancellor's package was more generous than expected. I've spent months shrieking, pleading, urging for more help, calling out the dangers. I've nowt to sell out, I just try and call it straight

    Some have started asking me why as a practicing Jew have I said nothing about the unthinkable dispicable atrocities committed by terrorists in Israel. Frankly I've struggled to process it, and felt the combined gutteral fear for relations in Israel, anxiety about possible

    Dear @RishiSunak, the UK is on the brink of a personal finance precipice. Today you, only you, have the tools to pull it back. To save lives. To improve living standards. To reduce millions' anxiety This is what builds a legacy and makes a great Chancellor. Pls seize the chance
