BREAKING Dame Cressida Dick leaves Met Police after string of Scotland Yard scandalshttps://t.co/SoFwyFKrKn

— Pippa Crerar (@PippaCrerar) February 10, 2022

As the IOPC report on Met police culture concluded: “these incidents are not isolated or simply the behaviour of a few ‘bad apples’”.

Cressida Dick’s resignation won’t fix the Met’s institutional misogyny and racism.

We need an independent public statutory inquiry now. https://t.co/O8hvK8ASES

Cressida Dick was right to resign (I’ve argued at least twice publicly that her position was untenable) but the contrast with govt refusals to resign is still pretty painful

NEW: Sir John Major accuses Boris Johnson of breaking lockdown laws.

"At No 10, the PM and officials broke lockdown laws. Brazen excuses were dreamed up. Day after day the public was asked to believe the unbelievable. Ministers were sent out to defend the indefensible…"

I think when a former Tory PM says of a current Tory MP that he has broken the law, lied in Parliament, enabled corruption and debased accepted norms and standards, Tory MPs should take note. https://t.co/DNvVglAO84

The British people vote for local MPs, not a President. MPs have the power + responsibility to remove their leaders. 4 out of the 5 last Conservative Prime-Ministers were replaced within parliamentary terms. We're long past the point when Boris Johnson should have been the 6th. https://t.co/cufxtfWWaS

For all those who missed the last hour of hilarity, Johnson’s new comms chief just retweeted someone endorsing John Major’s diatribe against his boss, eventually unretweeted it, then changed his bio to tell people to dismiss any further tweets as not being sent by him pic.twitter.com/ALrAKpovus

The public dressing-down Lavrov gave Liz Truss was so brutal, and the gap between them so yawning, you almost have to wonder why they even had the meeting – and Lavrov did indeed wonder that aloud during an excruciating press conference in Moscowhttps://t.co/iKlCoIv7X4

— max seddon (@maxseddon) February 10, 2022

Lavrov doesn't do diplomacy, he does insults. I don't understand why any Western politician would appear at a press conference with him, unless it is with the explicit intention to insult him back. And there's not much point to that either https://t.co/N0jSFX4j03

This presser has not gone well. Sergey Lavrov has just briskly walked off, leaving @trussliz on her own at the podium. He said talking to her was ‘like talking to a deaf person’ & said what Russia does in its own territory is ‘not her business.’ She’s now got lunch with him… pic.twitter.com/7w3xORhUdw

I saw @Kevin_Maguire joke about Truss being the Instagram Secretary and then I fell down a rabbit hole and, well, of course she is, and it’s as ludicrous as you’d expect. #idiocracy pic.twitter.com/tGygOBVBAy

Liz Truss's Mission to Moscow – was not about peace in Ukraine, or standing up to the vile Putin regime – it was about Liz Truss wanting to be Prime Minister. We need serious politicians not X Factor Foreign Secretaries.

Breaking WaPo: Some of the White House documents that Trump improperly took to Mar-a-Lago were clearly marked as classified, including documents at the "top secret" level, according to two people familiar with the matter. https://t.co/lYNNDLGwWG

— Kyle Griffin (@kylegriffin1) February 10, 2022

Recap:

1) No, a president can't "verbally" declassify a document without further action.

2) No, a president can't declassify a document in his head.

3) No, a former president can't take classified documents with him outside of secure control mechanisms.

4) Indict him.

Trump is denying he flushed documents down a White House toilet, but @maggieNYT’s reporting is 100% accurate. Staff did find clumped/torn/shredded papers and fished them out from blocked bathroom toilet—and believed it had been the president’s doing, sources told me at the time. pic.twitter.com/R1zxqX85lK
