Ben Leo Whispers of the deluded.
This is so #labour can make a bigger fuss than they would’ve done by #SadiqKhan ’s inevitable win tomorrow.
“Expectation management” and all that.
Don’t play their games Ben!

🚨WHISPERS that Sadiq Khan is under HUGE pressure from Susan Hall in the London mayoral race. Labour worried. Imagine the scenes🚨

So proud of you. Showing to people all around the world that a diagnosis doesn’t define who you are or what you can offer. An amazing mind on amazing dad. Love you xxx Alastair Stewart #inclusion Dementia UK Alzheimer's Research UK

‘Is Susan Hall a white supremacist?'

'She comes pretty close'

Former Labour MP and Minister of State for Europe, Denis MacShane, defends Wes Streeting over his comment that 'voting for Susan Hall is a win for white supremacists.'

Delighted to be joined by a broadcasting legend this morning to give his unrivalled analysis on the local elections - he’s back at 10.40 Alastair Stewart

Showing ID to stop electoral fraud is “sinister” and leaves some people “disturbed”. Interesting…

Shame there isn’t the same conviction for contesting mail-in ballots.

Oh dear. Is this Wes’s ‘deplorables’ moment? Hillary would be proud.

Imagine calling people with concerns over Net Zero, ULEZ and knife crime “white supremacists”

From what I’ve seen Wes Streeting MP I believe you are better than this.

Sadiq Khan doing a good job of making me want to vote Susan Hall (if I lived in London)

“Treat politicians with respect. Delay Net Zero.”

Wow. Controversial.

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Britain has removed the first failed asylum seeker to Rwanda, The Sun can reveal…

The unnamed migrant was flown out of the UK on Monday evening.

Historic moment as first time UK has relocated a failed asylum seeker to a third country:

Awful, just awful. His poor family.

Feeling mega grateful to feel the sun on my skin today. It’s been too long. Makes such a difference - it’s literally life force☀️

It's weird when people think being blocked by a large account is an achievement. It's not.

In most cases, blocking is like swatting a fly that keeps bothering you so you can focus on more important things.

Do some people block for petty reasons? Yes. But you don't have a right…
