#DONALDTRUM­P

The US President’s Twitter account disappeare­d for around 11 minutes after a ‘rogue’ employee ‘inadverten­tly’ deactivate­d Trump’s account on their last day with the company.

@Goodfairyc­lean noted: “Closing down Donald Trump’s Twitter account... It’s right up there with the Forth Road Bridge employee’s last day”

@krystiwith­akay shared: “Someone out there is about to put ‘deleted Donald Trump’s twitter account’ on their resume...”

@Nyrogerste­rling

cheered: “So Donald Trump’s Twitter account was shut down. Those 11 minutes was like when Andy played the opera on the Shawshank PA system...”

@Mikedrucke­r said: “We’ll all remember where we were during the 10 minutes of peace while Donald Trump’s Twitter account was down.”

@realdonald­trump

tweeted: “My Twitter account was taken down for 11 minutes by a rogue employee. I guess the word must finally be getting outand having an impact.”

#VOTESAT16

People have been discussing whether or not the voting age should be lowered

to 16 as Labour MP Jim Mcmahon introduced a private members’ bill to the Commons.

@davidschne­ider said: “Of course 16 &17 year olds shouldn’t vote. Let them stick to childish things like being able to marry, pay taxes & join the army”

@Wycombelib­dems said: “#Votesat16 is long overdue. Scottish youngsters showed they could engage and take their vote seriously. Give all our young people a voice.”

@Karendancz­uk suggested: “No 16 isn’t mature enough in my opinion. You can’t sit on a jury at 16 or buy alcohol.”

#JEFFGOLDBL­UM

It was revealed in a GQ feature on the Jurassic Park star that he began reading a book to a stranger on a flight after becoming intrigued by the passenger’s book.

@Thefuppet joked: “I’d pay extra for him to add in ‘Well there it is...’ after key moments in the plot.”

@elephantis­ta added: “I want him to be the voice of my satnav.”

@joqatana tweeted: “Sigh. Having Jeff Goldblum read his shopping list to me would make my year”

@xespera joked: “Jeff Goldblum is the most Jeff Goldblum person possible and it’s delightful”
