#FMQS
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said that she would ‘save Scotland from Brexit’ during FMQS yesterday. @petermacmahon tweeted: “‘I am determined to save Scotland from Brexit’ - Nicola Sturgeon at FMQS That’s a big promise.” @sempersursum said: “Let’s have an indyref but a condition would need to be a 2nd question on the ballot. Should Scotland keep Holyrood or close it down?” @Bradendavy posted: “How is being run by Brussels ‘taking our future into our own hands’ ” @Bundy_james7 wrote: “Today’s FMQS showed that the SNP are using Brexit and indyref2 to cover their failings on the Scottish NHS, education and policing.” @doctorcdf shared: “Indyref2 is coming and I believe ‘Yes’ will win: May knew she could have a hard Brexit or a UK, but not both. She didn’t listen.”
#MICHAELFLATLEY
Irish dancer Michael Flatley has confirmed he will be performing at President Donald Trump’s inauguration. @Hallowaylxvi tweeted: “I’m glad Michael Flatley is going to dance for Trump. It means my previously irrational dislike of the man now has a rational basis.” @leedalyire wrote: “Fair play to Michael Flatley. Who else at the inauguration would have represented the Celtic mysticism wing of white supremacy if not him?” @Donalds_diary shared: “Pleased to announce Michael Flatley will be performing a brand new piece at my inauguration - Golden Riverdance.”
#COURGETTECRISIS
Twitter users took to social media to ridicule the outcry over a courgette shortage in UK supermarkets. @Mostlee_ mocked: “The good people of Aleppo have set up a relief fund for those affected by the courgette crisis #prayforguildford” @Parveen_comms opined: “While millions of people are starving in the world, UK’S middle class are fussing over #courgettecrisis. Imagine if they had real problems.” @foodieflo1985 noted: “People moaning about the lack of courgettes when they’re out of season! Maybe eat seasonal produce instead?” @thomeagle observed: “Better get used to the #courgettecrisis. Postbrexit all we’ll have in winter is endless potatoes and, ironically, Brussels sprouts.”
