Now I have to drive around for 30 minutes to charge the damn thing up. Can I tweet and drive? #

If I don't get home soon and get to bed I'll sleep in and miss #Insiders in the morning. #
@mrsnickhodge Yes, mum… in reply to mrsnickhodge #
Now my "drive the car to recharge the battery" tour has taken me into a McDonald's drive through for the first time in years. #

@G_Parker I agree with you there – I'd be happy to get it out of the way ASAP. But going in Aug could backfire. She needs to govern first. in reply to G_Parker #
