Totally agree
John Curtice is not an interviewer. He does the stats. Has #newsnight encouraged him into this new role of directly interrogating guests or has he just got a bit too ...full of himself? Do miss him being rolled on just to chat about the numbers

At PMQs #Sunak called #KeirStarmer “Sir Softie”. So, Keir Softie rather than Keir Hardie? ( that’s one for political nerds).
So, that’s all good. Watch Tim Davie ‘move forwards’ in this video #Uplifting bbc.co.uk/news/uk-64936917
4 of these are simply forecasts of what’s likely to happen with or without his intervention
As your Prime Minister you need to know what my focus will be, so you can hold me to account directly on whether it is delivered.
These are my five promises 👇

Just read a piece in which #Morocco are described as “plucky underdogs”.Really? They look pretty impressive to me. You don’t have to be European or S. American to play football
Amazing @RichardEGrant was extraordinarily candid without ‘over sharing’ on #DesertIslandDiscs. Not sure about his Streisand fixation, tho’!

Somewhat disturbingly, @RishiSunak delivers his uplifting platitudes to what sounds like a #GaryGlitter soundtrack. What next - #RolfHarris on didgeridoo?
Fintan O’Toole @IrishTimes reckons electing Liz Truss is the Tories’ “My Lovely Horse” moment - a collective death wish
“This is the biggest political mistake since Suez. The Chancellor is now the PM’s gaoler” says James Forsyth in @spectator
It’s 2010 all over again. No growth >austerity >no growth>austerity. It’s the classic IMF doom loop.
How can someone have the political skills to become PM yet blow it so spectacularly when in office? History has rehabilitated Major, Brown and even May - can’t see it coming to #lizztruss’s help. Not even a C minus
Sniffy but fair review of ‘#Bloodlands. Good ending last night, though amp.theguardian.com/tv-and-r…
