Talked to BBC Newsnight from the protest. A bit more emotional performance than usual from me, but the message is clear. #Georgiaprotests
'President Putin is not winning, he is not winning in Ukraine and he is not winning in Georgia'
Opposition leader Tina Bokuchava tells #Newsnight that despite parliament passing what critics call the 'Russia law', people will continue to protest it in the capital Tbilisi
Sad moment, but what a classy sign-off after decades of brilliant service. Bravo Mark Urban ! Intrigued to see what's coming next. #newsnight
This is excruciating. Watch Labour MP Neil Coyle squirm when he is asked a very simple question...
'Where are you going to house people who come on small boats?'
He can't answer.
Even the woke leftists on #Newsnight are utterly exasperated.

The BBC’s South Caucuses correspondent Rayhan Demytrie reports live from Tbilisi where Georgians are opposing a controversial ‘foreign agent’ law

Victoria Derbyshire tearing pillsbury dough wanker, Robert Jenrick, a new one.
This is the level of scrutiny that has been required for years but the Tories get to play on easy mode.

Unpaid Carers? 24/7 work.
We save the country millions.
Carer's Allowance in the UK £81.90 per week max. for providing 24/7 care.

Cabinet minister Michelle Donelan is so frazzled she ended up saying: 'I believe that we should stand up for things that are divisive, and promote hatred.'
That's not so much a Freudian slip as a Freudian pratfall. ~AA #Newsnight

questioned by Tory destroyer Victoria Derbyshire on #Newsnight last year is a must (re-re)-watch 💪🏻
“It made me feel like a criminal”

I'm carer to my disabled wife. But for a neighbour & friend, my family & I would be homeless. Now, these great people help us every month with shopping & bills, without which we would not survive. That's the reality of hugely inadequate welfare benefits in the UK #Newsnight

'Organisations like the BBC refuse to call these terrorists, 'terrorists''
'It's grotesque, it's indefensible, and it allows obfuscation. Its fuelling anti-Jewish hatred in this country'
Well said👏
