All the new Reform UK councillors may lack experience, but they can always rely on their strongly held convictions. Especially the ones for fraud, sexual assault and tax evasion.

My book club is currently reading Margaret Atwood's "The Handmaid's Tale" (meeting tomorrow). I'm sure I won't be the only one to say I thought it was meant to be a dystopia, not a story about MAGA 😧
