@SadiqKhan @EricPickles I missed the original tweet, but it must have been bad - don't see MPs apologise for much, ever. Fair play to you...

HH ‏@huma2910 27 Mar 2014

@SadiqKhan if only u was in #Pakistan no questions asked let alone apologising ! Lol never mind.

Paul Rogers ‏@paulrogers002 27 Mar 2014

@SadiqKhan That fat MF @EricPickles still eats too many biscuits though.

Martin David Sewell ‏@martindsewell 27 Mar 2014

@SadiqKhan @MrHarryCole @EricPickles I think we can and should " move on" when a politician makes an early proper response like yours. 1/2

Ultra Ego ‏@EgoUltra 27 Mar 2014

@paulrogers002 @SadiqKhan @EricPickles getting dissed by Cotton Eye Joe, harsh.

Martin David Sewell ‏@martindsewell 27 Mar 2014

@SadiqKhan @MrHarryCole @EricPickles 2/2 if not how will we school them by carrot and stick to improve standards?

paul rc ‏@paulgbrc 27 Mar 2014

@SadiqKhan nothing surprises me with you. scraping the barrel yet again

Ali L ‏@Alichat66 27 Mar 2014

@SadiqKhan @EricPickles Good to see this - I hope that Neil Kinnock does the same, as he is the one who made the very poorly judged comment.

Martin David Sewell ‏@martindsewell 27 Mar 2014

@samuelLBS @SadiqKhan @Alichat66 @EricPickles Agreed -too many lack the humility gene. Harman no better over PIE.

Sir Eric Pickles ‏@EricPickles 27 Mar 2014

“@SadiqKhan: Profuse apologies to @EricPickles – I have spoken to him to apologise & am sorry. Inappropriate tweet.” Apology accepted

Mark Burnett ‏@widster 27 Mar 2014

@EricPickles @SadiqKhan I think he is a fat Tory scumbag!

Zbigniew G ‏@Zbigniew_G 27 Mar 2014

@EricPickles @SadiqKhan can 1 ask what tweet does this relate 2? I see lots of inappropriate stuff from sadiq. Need 2 know which 1 to remove

Martin David Sewell ‏@martindsewell 27 Mar 2014

@EricPickles @NaraHodge @SadiqKhan You're a gentleman Eric. Any word from Kinnock? Don't hold your breath - that would put you at risk!

Pete ‏@psd1070 27 Mar 2014

@EricPickles @SadiqKhan Has Lord Kinnock apologised?

Hat Smith ‏@Allchanges 27 Mar 2014

@SadiqKhan @EricPickles Nobody wishes any harm to Eric, (that note was nasty), but as a Tory, he couldn't care less about other people.

Hat Smith ‏@Allchanges 27 Mar 2014

@EricPickles @SadiqKhan I also don't like fattist jokes aimed at Eric - although I despise everything he stands for.

Hat Smith ‏@Allchanges 27 Mar 2014

@EricPickles @SadiqKhan Eric can eat all the food he likes, but I abhor his policies. Fattist jokes are for bullies.
