    Amused by posh Trot @graceblakeley trying to patronise Alan Johnson with reheated 70s Bennite anti-Europeanism on #bbctw

        I don't believe you were 'amused', plus the patronisation was on the other side - all from Johnson trying to shut her up. You do like your outdated patronising labels don't you? 'Trot' and 'Bennite' - for God's sake drag yourself into this century.

        Yep, saw this. As you say @lukeakehurst completely off target. If any patronising going on, Johnson towards @graceblakely. She more than held her own against Neil, Johnson and Portillo.

        I hate it when people who won the lottery of life want others to share the wealth, why can’t they just protect their own class interest?

        I think she needs to read up on Dunning-Kruger.

        Has Luke ever tweeted about the Tories? Asking for a friend.

        Attacking the Hard Left is inherently also anti-Tory as history tells us their defeat is a necessary precondition of defeating the Tories.

        The Gap Yah Communist really is amusing. Desperately increasing her media profile by toffsplaining to working people what she believes other working people prioritise. Invariably dead wrong.
