She cynically bought votes with huge discounts to council tenants. Often often with relatives greedily seeing a chance of eventually cashing in. I know Lab. and Lib. supporters who bought their parents council houses and now they rent out as private landlords like ladies who do! Capitalism corrupts

I asked the Home Secretary how it feels to kick away the ladder and introduce anti-migrant policies endorsed by fascist Tommy Robinson?
She didn’t answer the question, calling it “beneath contempt”.
The only thing beneath contempt is her pound-shop Powellism. Shame on her & this Labour government.

Wes Streeting says striking NHS staff are “holding patients to ransom”.
Wrong! He’s the one holding patients and the NHS to ransom, by refusing to give doctors the pay and jobs they deserve.
