The Chancellor said his cunning plan would make it easier to get on the "property ladder". One of the first impacts appears to be major mortgage lenders stopping offering new mortgages. So the Chancellor's statement is good news for everybody who can pay £500k cash for a house. — PolitiTweet.org

Be interesting to see how many of these high earners were also in the exclusive set that had a vote in the Tory leadership election. — PolitiTweet.org

@Irene60779832 Alison Thewliss led for the SNP on this. She, Angus Brendan MacNeill and Kirsten Oswald had all spoken by the time you sent your tweet. Several other SNP MPs spoke. I was one of the last to get called. https://t.co/7rFPWFocgM — PolitiTweet.org

Liz Truss has walked out of the chamber before the Third Party Spokesperson has been invited to speak. Obviously got her good manners from her predecessor. — PolitiTweet.org
