Oh my. This letter to The Times by a former *Tory MP* on the Angela Rayner story is quite something.

'I suppose that her attackers cannot bear the idea that they are about to lose to a woman who pulled herself up by her bootstraps. And who is going wipe the floor with them.' ~AA

Left: Victoria Atkins, 'A strong economy helps us pay for the NHS'

Right: 'UK economy is almost £140billion smaller because of Brexit'

End: Throwback to 2019 when Dr Rachel Clarke rightly observed, 'You can be pro Brexit, or you can be pro NHS, but you cannot be both'…

I mean, you can shoot yourself in the foot, shit happens. But to then ignore it and looking away instead of at least trying to repair the damage is simply mad.
A whole country going Lalaland.
And where is Labour in all of this ?

michael sheen 💙 I liked that you didn’t mind the silence, but just encouraged him gently. Very thoughtful. Once Liam spoke, he was so articulate!
People shouldn’t be afraid of silence, it’s a time to pause, adapt, reflect, prepare, or just enjoy.
I hope you feel better soon 💐

Back of my Polling Card for local elections. For 1st time, photo ID is required. Card gives many options for elderly or those with disability. None, NONE, for younger or student voters. The policy is simply biased against younger voters, designed to suppress their vote.

Struck by the number of people - young and old - who tell me they used to love to swim off our coast but are now reluctant. The ‘freedoms’ we have are really the freedoms of ruthless businessmen to deny us so many things we used to value.

'Mansour has come to Britain and given the Tories a huge amount of money and he immediately gets a knighthood from Rishi Sunak. That seems to me straight forwardly corrupt. Shouldn't they both be in jail?'
