| 1625414646743068673 | Thanks to @TimesRadio for having me on this morning to talk about #sewage in #windermere. This campaign has one objective. To stop all sewage discharges that end up in our lake. Find out what happened to just one of Windermere’s rivers last summer ⬇️ https://t.co/geeJeOqKzV https://t.co/rABAStOzT0 | 61 |

| 1625985776856039425 | On @TimesRadio .. @schneiderhome tells me Starmer’s move against @jeremycorbyn is “petty, factional score-settling” .. says it shows Starmer is a “dishonest, thin-skinned control freak” | 32 |

| 1627209726814572546 | What good reason could an asylum seeker who qualifies for asylum in the UK have for destroying the identity documents that prove who they are, and from whence they have fled? @TimesRadio | 31 |
| 1627213005900460032 | Johnson negotiated it from the appallingly weak position his supine predecessor May and her appalling team of poor negotiators got us into.

| 1628173524077621249 | @TimesRadio @timfarron Hard to believe you can use a book about politics in a political discussion but the second you try and use a collection of stories written by bronze age farmers to label a whole section of society as morally-inferior subhumans suddenly it's "inappropriate". | 19 |

| 1628155352721104899 | @TimesRadio @timfarron Uh, Das Kapital is a *politics* book. Thatcher brought what she learned in The Road to Serfdom, too, but it's about economy and politics, not mysticism! | 382 |
| 1628164534186741762 | @TimesRadio @timfarron Yeah, British politics is so famously welcoming of Marxist thought. | 315 |
| 1628312507105394689 | @TimesRadio @timfarron So you're saying it's ok for us to learn physics from "science" but not from the Pokémon film?! Double standards. Hypocrisy | 289 |

| 1628165256642981898 | @timfarron @pphaneuf @TimesRadio I'd say ignoring the century-long consensus that none of the Gospels are eyewitness accounts, and were writtrn at least a generation after His ministry is a tad mystical/mythical, no? | 247 |
| 1628166565257523200 | @timfarron @pphaneuf @TimesRadio Not trying to pick a fight. I respect your position. But I think Biblical scholars generally say the Gospels are recordings of oral traditions about Jesus from different communities, written 30-60 years after his death, plus a now lost older common source of sayings of Jesus (Q). | 244 |
| 1628179923964764166 | @TimesRadio @timfarron If what they learnt in 'Das Kapital' was to choose to hate and discriminate against a minority who can't and should not change who they are. then no it wouldn't be ok - yet that is not in that particular book is it, Tim. | 226 |
| 1625022928147435521 | If you have 5 minutes a little later I'll be speaking to @LOS_Fisher & @LukeJones on @TimesRadio at 8:15am about the campaign. https://t.co/umQDIwZD8e | 226 |
| 1628161031254974465 | @TimesRadio @timfarron one reactionary homophobe defends another. loads of religious MPs who don't use it as a shield to justify not bothering to represent LGBT+ constituents (and more, if either of them had ever got power) | 212 |
| 1627702607501266944 | Thanks to @TimesRadio for having @RevRichardColes and me on just now, to talk about RABBITHOLE DETECTIVES - the podcast we host with @CatJarman that debuts later this week. @janegarvey1 and Fi Glover a wonderful duo to be interviewed by. | 164 |
