It seems I was not the only person to have this lovely idea

I quit Twitter a few weeks ago having determined that it added nothing positive to my life. Every session of scrolling might yield one or two interesting nuggets of information but would definitely also present me with something to get irate about – either the offensive opinion of some buffoon or (and more gallingly) an argument and cause I believed in but expressed so badly that even this annoyed me!

So I’ve been gone a few weeks… and look what’s happened. Britain’s water companies are gleefully discharging sewage into rivers and oceans, and now Twitter will be doing the same thing into the world’s psyches.

…in politics, so they say. Well it’s certainly eventful. Liz Truss has secured her place in the history books as the UK’s shortest serving Prime Minister (in terms of duration, not height). Forty four days, ten of which were spent with no government business due to the Queen’s funeral.
