- Bonus thought: Nigel Farage now has to declare his income and donations.
- When you say “my parents worked hard to give me a good education” you’re saying two things. • State education, which I am in charge of, is bad and should be avoided at all costs. • If you’re a parent who can’t afford to do that, you aren’t working hard enough for your kids.🚨@RishiSunak: Keir Starmer attacks me because of where I went to school.

- Conclusive proof that anyone with £50, an Aldi within walking distance, a team of helpers, an industrial kitchen and a professional chef can make meals for 30p.
- One more time, because Boris Johnson keeps saying he thought he was attending “work events”: Work events were not allowed under Covid rules.
- Rishi Sunak, 7 December 2021: “No, I did not attend any parties”00:00

- Jamie Raskin notes that despite Farage saying he had to leave early, he’s currently being interviewed by GB News outside. They’re sending someone to ask him to come back.00:00
