Just to remind @RishiSunak that NI was already in the 'fantastic' position to have access to both the UK and EU markets. That was before people like him advocated Brexit.

I found @michaelgove interviewed on @BBCr4today just as much of the usual irritating charlatan as ever. Asked to name a benefit delivered by Brexit he mentioned โ€˜purer airโ€™ as part of environmental policy. As if the EU had prevented the UK from that.

Pessima organizzazione @GenovAeroporto con nessuna comunicazione ufficiale ritardo volo @Ryanair a Manchester. Sta ai passeggeri capire a 10 minuti dell'imbarco che il volo sarร  in ritardo di 1.5 ore ed ammassarsi al bar! ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

When you ring a friend at the weekend and they don't have time to talk to you because they're busy writing a paper makes you wonder what's left of your social network. So, here's to me!
