I'm no Labour supporter, but this is entirely a good thing
David Cameron’s failed Police & Crime Commissioner system is being scrapped
12 years of wasted money, low turnout & zero accountability, a political gimmick that didn’t make our streets safer
Labour’s putting that £100 million back where it belongs: into frontline policing & communities

I'm gay, I've seen what you've done to trans people and it's much worse than anything the Tories did.
I've got immigrant friends and your racist rhetoric is vile.
I've got disabled friends and you took away their benefits.
You attack minorities and suck up to bigots.

The Greens are not just SECOND in this poll.
They're now 3 points ahead of Labour - who are fourth.

I'm no GDPR expert, but isn't it illegal to hold onto people's personal data after they've left your organisation?

This is a sensible response to what was a unbelievably rare,, although horrific attack.
Trains and the railways in general are probably one of the safest places to be actually.

Heidi Alexander, the transport secretary, rules out metal detecting arches at stations, pointing out that with the number of stations and entrances to each it's basically impossible. She says that overall, UK trains are a pretty safe place to be.

I'm a bit 😐 on people going "this is why Labour, the Lib Dems and Greens need to team up!" coz...those parties are nowhere near each other politically. You think Labour and the Lib Dems will give up their pro-austerity policy? That Labour will reverse its anti-trans legislation?
