#TRUMPMEETS­MACRON

People cant’t stop talking about Donald Trump and Emmanuel Macron’s “bromance”. Both U.S President Trump and French president Macron have consistent­ly been talking up their special relationsh­ip. @Ashleyrpar­ker commented on the pair’s unusual friendship: “Let’s just say Trump and Macron were engaged in a little something known as ... ‘primate grooming’.” @Trillburne wrote: “There’s a whole team of interns making sure Macron and Trump don’t spend enough time alone together to develop a ‘master and apprentice’ type duo.” @Green_footballs said: “Everyone realises Donald Trump did that absurdly public dandruffbr­ushing thing with Emmanuel Macron as one of his ritualisti­c dominance displays, right?”

#WINDRUSH

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn called for Theresa May to resign during Prime Minister’s Questions over the Windrush generation scandal. @Jessswy said of Wednesday’s PMQS: “May is totally in denial over the gravity of the Windrush scandal. Apologies and compensati­on nowhere near enough.” @Howlandrob­in posted: “Corbyn, in his ham-fisted way, using the Windrush generation to conflate legal immigrants with illegal immigrants and making himself look like a prize twit.” @Unionlib tweeted: “Jeremy Corbyn calls for Theresa May to resign – time for that P45 from last year’s conference.”

#JOANNALUML­EY

Actress Joanna Lumley has said she is “terrified that all men are seen as bad” in the wake of the sexual misconduct scandal which engulfed Hollywood. @Alistairgo­rdon said: “Good for her. It seems being a man in itself is offence in the eyes of some people.” @Kimberleyk­amkoum posted: “It’s not our problem its so widespread.” @Beaswill added: “Calling out bad behaviour and the universal systematic misogyny in society doesn’t mean all men are bad – it means things must change for the better of all us too.”
