Also, letting children drown "pour encourager les autres" is not a policy that a civilised person should support.

- Replying to @gabrieltayhard and @CompletedStreetIf the guy can't drive within the lines, he shouldn't be driving at all. Clearly a dangerously incompetent driver.
- Dear @BBCRadio4, when an eminent scientist says it's dangerous to end lockdown measures, bringing on a pub landlord to say it isn't is not balance.
- Can we please stop calling the AstraZeneca vaccine the "Oxford" vaccine? Unless you also call the Pfizer/Biontech vaccine the "Mainz" vaccine, it's just annoying, inconsistent, and has a whiff of flag-shagging.
- Replying to @ZachElsbury and @ChrisGiles_German citizens are still allowed to enter the UK, you know. Quite why they'd want to is a different matter.
- Replying to @AlsagerPolHow do we report you, and the nosy neighbour, for wasting police time?
- Replying to @lmharpinDon't threaten us with competent, clean, well run, not constantly embarrassing government. Okay, and maybe a bit dull. That'd make a pleasant change.
- A modest proposal: we immediately introduce a 10 mile exclusion zone to stop the crazy getting out. #bbcqt
- Replying to @UlyaEhsen and @DannaAgmonThat seems a universal sentiment - Matthew 13 “A prophet is honoured everywhere except in his own hometown and among his own family.” But the chicken tastes like lentils version is way more memorable, and funnier!
- Replying to @nytopinion and @JonathanPieNewsOne small correction for the American audience: Good Scotch eggs are f*cking delicious. And you can call people "liar" in the UK. Just not the House of Commons, where you can lie, but not call people liars.
- Replying to @VinnyMcAv and @euronewsIt's a British custom. Fruit cake laced with enough brandy lasts until the end of the world. And will taste just as good/bad as originally
- Replying to @icrowson and @AmirRazavi19Well, calling a female firefighter a 'fireman' would make even less sense than calling someone who writes for the Sun a journalist.
- After 27 years of getting up at the crack of dawn, taking out a mortgage, starting a family, you're making me apply to stay in my own home. I guess smashing up restaurants doesn't give you kicks anymore. Now you have to smash up proples lives, eh?When people get up at the crack of dawn to prepare their family business, when people take out a mortgage to fund a new venture or risk everything on a new product or try to find a new market - we don’t sneer at them. We cheer for them and ask how we can help.
- Except for the bit about scotch eggs ;)
