Just like much of the furore this week, here is an example of a law passed 4 years ago and the Tories did nothing with it. Within months of us being in power we delivered the scheme because we are about actual actions and real outcomes. They talked we walked. www.burytimes.co.uk/news/2484314...

Just spotted this female blackcap feeding in our garden. Apparently they are migrants from Central Europe during the winter. For goodness sake don’t tell Farage, migrants coming over here, eating our birds food

The Conservative’s legacy continues to hurt households struggling to make ends meet.

And thanks to this government’s disastrous plan to scrap winter fuel payments, thousands more vulnerable households will have to choose between heating and eating this winter.

This cannot continue.

If we’d been shown this headline in 2016, we may have struggled to believe such a mess could be possible. But here we are, 8 years on, being asked to consider concessions on fish and opportunities for young people.
And the inescapable crappiness and tedium of it all is.. well.. just so very sad.

Gisele Pelicot should named as the Time person of the year. For bravely waiving her anonymity in one of the most horrific rape cases the world has seen, to take a stand for survivors and shame the perpetrators.

Instead they’re featuring Trump, a rapist, for the second time. Obviously.
