Australia just recorded zero cervical cancer cases in women under 25 for the first time since records began in 1982. The amazing result of HPV vaccination.

Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

I absolutely cannot understand what political goal Badenoch thinks she’s accomplishing here. If nothing else, she’s directly invited the Archbishop of Canterbury to weigh in, and she must know she’ll disagree.

I see Farage now hates emigration as well as immigration. The trouble is, he’s a big part of why people are emigrating. Brexit has made the U.K. a less attractive place for everyone.

Another senior Reform Party leader is caught taking money from the Kremlin. "Speaking outside his château in France, Coburn, a leader in Nigel Farage's Reform Party, answered 'no' when a BBC journalist asked him whether he had ever been paid to give a speech to promote pro-Russian campaigners."

Good morning my dear phone family. How's everyone?
So sorry for being MIA of late. I've just been diagnosed with breast cancer after numerous tests. It's been caught early and I'm having surgery in January, so I'm feeling positive and very grateful for our amazing NHS. Will post more soon 💗

A traitor was at the very top of Reform UK, aiding and abetting a foreign adversary.

Nigel Farage and his party are a danger to national security.

Is Farage still the racist bully he was at school?
“there’s a substantive case that Farage did change. He’s seen the strategic necessity of maintaining a clear boundary with the far right”
Cynical political manoeuvring should not shield him.
So yes, he still is.

Would a person from an ethnic minority trust Nigel Farage in power? So long as the answer remains “no”, Farage and the Reform party are unfit for office

Little reminder of Farage's pro Putin tendencies....

Hopefully some media outlets may take up @eddavey.libdems.org.uk 's suggestions to probe Mr Farage a bit more on this.

Is Farage saying he chose to support the wishes of a hostile foreign govt for free? 😲

🚨DJT wins at one thing: He is the most crass and embarrassing person to ever represent at least half of the country - whether they would admit it or not. Too, nobody who is innocent of having misled the country intentionally acts like this.

Somehow this got missed off the "Benefit Street" front pages today
70% of the additional spending from removing the two-child limit will go to families who are in work. This is targeting support for low-income working households who are being priced out of a decent standard of living despite doing everything asked of them.

We were once told it would take 193 years to meet legal air quality limits. We did it in just nine – 184 years early. We’ve made real progress cleaning up London’s toxic air, but there’s still more to do. Together, we can build a greener, fairer London for all.

I’m determined to consign air pollution to the history books.

I want London to be the best place in the world to grow up. That’s why I gathered environment and health leaders with government to build on the progress since my first Clean Air & Health Summit in 2022.
