As you might have read, Twitter’s Curation team - which I led - was disbanded last week. 🧵
The multilingual team, located in 9 cities, provided content intelligence for ML-driven products, trends context and highlighted credible content when Twitter really needed it.

Simply convert the additional tax breaks into vouchers that can only be spent in independent high street stores.
Trickle down turns into more of a ‘gush’ then. #minibudget2022

Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Phillip visit Cadburys, 1955. The trip would also see them open the Technology, Commerce and Art colleges at Gosta Green. Do you have any memories of the Queen's visits to Brum? bit.ly/3TUJxxb #QueenElizabeth #QueenElizabethII #Birmingham

Hey @avivaplc why do you use a car repair service that has a 92% 1 star review on trust pilot. uk.trustpilot.com/review/viz…
My mother in law has been waiting 3 months for an insurance repair which hasn’t even been started.

0.3% of the population get to decide whether the country should solve the current national crisis by either cutting or raising taxes. This group are predominantly over 60, read right leaning newspapers and don’t use social media.
So I’m sure everything is going to be just fine.

Enjoying #heatwaveuk? We definitely need some of these Italian ice cream sellers, who are plying their trade at the Bull Ring, 1898. The 1891 census shows there were 12 Italians selling their lovely confectionary in the area. bit.ly/3O1iFHT #Birmingham #IceCream

Oliver Dowden resigning after the by-election defeats is like one of the chefs resigning after the Titanic hit an iceberg.

Wondering if there is a set price list for MP lobbying, or do you have to negotiate each deal separately. Are there any BOGOF deals and what happens on Black Friday?

If an MP is paid £122,400 a year by private companies with lobbying interests and paid £80,000 a year by the tax-payer, who is he really working for?
Asking for Owen Paterson.

This tweet on the day that British Government is making noises about retaliation over fishing disputes with France. In the words of @RealDMitchell and @arobertwebb “are we the bad guys?”

I had a great meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron this afternoon. The United States has no older, no more loyal, no more decent ally than France. They’ve been with us from the beginning — and we will always be there for them.

Some concrete we grew here in Birmingham back in the 1960s. Sadly, it was cut back and pruned in 2000. bit.ly/3jIWud7 #Birmingham #Bullring #Brum
