Twitter is a constant reminder of the left wing idiotic inner city champagne socialists who think they’re still representative of the Labour Party. Keep going.

Twitter is a handy and constant reminder that twitter is full of socialists and isn’t reflective of society as a whole, but yes, they are awful.
