My attendance record in the European Parliament was the 4th worst out of 751 MEPs, yet I managed to turn up to vote AGAINST plans to tackle Russian misinformation.
Thankfully this is of no interest to the media.

YES!
Anyone else feeling nostalgic for the time when we had no idea what might be in the budget? When your parents stocked up on cigarettes and alcohol the week before and filled their cars up on the way home from work in case the duty went up at 6pm?

Today the Treasury is leakier than a broken sieve 🙄

I’d have thought nothing cuts more against our precious British values than selling out your country for Russian bribes…

And yet Reform, the right‑wing press, and all those self‑styled guardians of these values have nothing to say

…funny that.

When Rishi Sunak made the Vaccine deal with Moderna as Chancellor, he had up to £530m invested in Moderna.

Now Michelle Mone is desperately bringing it up.

Like if you want Mone on trial.
RT if you want them both facing the music.

Reform UK in Leicestershire Council are paying consultants Newton £1.4m to do the job they claimed DOGE would do.

Thats £4.72 per Council Tax paying household.

It could rise to £30m they are paying Newton. Thats £101 per household in Leicestershire.

I read the news, feel sick, betrayed, disgusted.
No it's not a peace deal, it's utterly wrong.

Whatever happens, whatever Ukraine decides, I stand with you, continue supporting you.

I used to think grief had a timeline. My workplace definitely did.

But it doesn’t work like that.

It shifts, softens, spikes, surprises, years later.

Not because we’re failing to ‘move on’, but because love keeps living alongside us.

Missing someone does too 💔

When a Labour government sees the approval of Tommy Robinson as more important that the approval of the Labour Party membership, things are probably going wrong

I’m convinced people would hardly give a stuff about immigration if they weren’t constantly told that they should. Also where’s the “both-siding” on immigration? Shouldn’t media impartiality rules dictate that if even 1 expert thinks it good, it should get equal airtime?
