Not a single syllable of contrition or apology. Criticises a newspaper headline but doesn’t even mention the behaviour that got him sacked. Remarkable.

Sajid Javid says we need to pay £20 for a GP appointment and £66 to go to A&E as a way to solve the NHS funding crisis. He’s wrong because there are so many better options in my new report on funding the NHS. A thread…..

And not:
"is it ethical to hoard bread when families are starving?"

Snow Bros Nick & Tom is a bargain on the Switch store atm. Certainly more reliable than my boot PCB. Lots of arcade fun for £2.69 #NintendoSwitch

Hmmm. I just had a bizarre experience, involving a global news organisation and a trillion dollar corporation. (I got caught in the middle, so... owch.)
It’s not the sort of experience the people involved usually talk about in public… so I think I’ll talk about it in public.
