As far as I can understand him, Charles Moore seems to be saying some of the right words, but they very much don’t feel like they’re in the right order #bbcqt
It’s long been my view that if the Rwanda deportation policy has been at times politically tricky as a concept, that’s nothing to what it will be in practice. Asylum seekers are one thing when discussed a mass. Actual people on a plane, with life stories, are another matter.
Heading back to Westminster today after a year off with this little guy. Looking forward to catching up with everyone. Special thanks to @RishiSunak for not calling that May election for straight after my return.
. @JohnJCrace is back at work *and* he’s done a Digested Read of Liz Truss’s book. We are doubly blessed. theguardian.com/books/2024/apr…
If you read the full article - and I really don’t recommend it - this opening paragraph is, unbelievably, one of the less weird and creepy parts of it. It’s basically about a guy paying for sex and kidding himself that the sex worker finds him alluring. What the actual fuck.

Hats off to three of my wonderful colleagues for the title, and subject, of this new open access paper sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Whatever the merits or otherwise of road charging - my guess is it’ll come before too long in most big cities - does anyone believe that Sadiq Khan is really “paying £20m in salaries” for people to examine the idea? That would be, say, 200 people on £100k a year.

New from me: everything you wanted to know about MRP polling, of which there has been a bit recently, but were afraid to ask. tl;dr - if you're a Tory MP, yes, you probably should be worried. theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
William Wragg will face a lot of criticism and ridicule in the coming days, so do remember that, assuming the account of what happened is accurate, he passed others’ numbers because he feared compromising material about him being released. It’s a grim thing to go through.
Tory MPs already saying they think William Wragg should resign over his admission to @breeallegretti that he was involved in the honeytrap sexting scandal by handing over colleagues' numbers Comes after amazing Politico reporting led by @AgnesChambre that brought this to light
If it's slightly niche to go so big on a subjective survey by a brand consultancy, it's even more niche to do so when the results were released five weeks ago.

@peterwalker99 He is impenetrable. Probably to his advantage
Hah, I've been a music journalist for 40 years, I've written two best-selling books, and won several awards for my newspaper columns. It'll be hilarious if the most popular thing I've ever written is a throwaway anti-brioche tweet. But if it helps turn the tide, I'll take it!
Alternatively we could raise taxes and/or do a bunch of things that would generate more growth but we're avoiding for political reasons.
Time to confront reality: the UK is heading for bankruptcy with public debt set to rise to 300% of GDP. We can no longer afford many of the entitlements we take for granted - and that applies to the super rich as much as everyone else thetimes.co.uk/article/de967b…
@peterwalker99 “Independent analysis commissioned by the traders association"…..
@peterwalker99 Talking about his toned body was pathetic. And he's written articles about using sex workers before!
@supertanskiii @peterwalker99 You see defensive assumptions, I see intellectually-honest, humane thinking. Peter's ability to divorce his own views and work from the human story is to his credit. I like your work, but this is not a story that needs your full rage mode, IMO.
@peterwalker99 That's a zone I find myself in quite often.
@peterwalker99 Thank you, Peter. This was very good of you to say. We're not just talking about shame, we're talking about humiliation. One of the strongest emotions people feel. So if you cannot be kind, pls be human.
@CasiaZajac @riotgrandma72 @peterwalker99 We all do foolish things when we're infatuated or in love. But I'm not surprised by this online devastation. There's been an excellent Ted Talk about it, by Jon Ronson. It's called, "When online shaming goes too far." ted.com/talks/jon_rons…
@riotgrandma72 @peterwalker99 I understand what you're saying, Carol, but on a human level none of us are w/o fault. Being gay, or on a gay dating website, is still bring shamed. Yes, he did get himself into a terrible position. But faced with humiliation, his wasn't an easy choice. Let's have some leniency.
@peterwalker99 @LucyGoBag These days it is often considered one. Social media is so polarised that many find it difficult to accept an opinion containing nuance or sympathy. Man is obviously an idiot, did something quite dangerous for an MP and should step down but I can still feel sorry for him.
@oldishbird1 @peterwalker99 @supertanskiii You'd be surprised how many people do that
@peterwalker99 @ScouseLakes This is a decent position, Peter. And a refreshing one. Not one I share because I'm horrible and partisan. But I really do admire it.
This was my first instinct too. I must be getting soft in my old age, but I still feel sympathy despite what he's done. Happy to be in the minority, or in the Twitterverse, wrong!
William Wragg will face a lot of criticism and ridicule in the coming days, so do remember that, assuming the account of what happened is accurate, he passed others’ numbers because he feared compromising material about him being released. It’s a grim thing to go through.
This. The past work of @danevanswrites and myself @BylineTimes shows us what a traumatic thing being sexually catfished can be. And there’s no specific law against it. Madness. Law needs to change. @DinoNocivelli

@SarahRosemary3 @peterwalker99 I think it is probably quite scary. He hoped to avoid public humiliation and didn’t think it through. I am sure this happens on a smaller scale to more than we realise
@peterwalker99 Always struck me as a nice and intelligent bloke. Clearly he’s made some disastrous decions here and probably has to go. But, I do hope he is OK, and can certainly empathise with what must have been a dreadfully stressful situation for him.
