This is our parody of "Piece of My Heart" by the amazing soulful Erma Franklin. Our version addresses the situation unfolding with #Trump and #Greenland, & has rude words - it's called "Piece of Denmark". In solidarity with all fellow Europeans facing tariffs and trauma. #25th

Even by my low expectations for Kemi Badenoch ‘violence against women and girls is something done by immigrants and nobody else’ has shocked me.
Dog-whistle and factually incorrect. Ladies, raise your hand if you were sexually assaulted by a boy at school? I’d wager this or a family member is most women’s first experience of sexual violence

So it's now 5 who recognise the experience and commitment of Jess Phillips, verses 5 who wants her out - a group which includes at least 1 which is working with Reform.
This is now nothing more than Reform trying to destroy the inquiry and undermine the Labour government.

Breaking - Five grooming gang survivors tell PM they will stay on panel only if Jess Phillips REMAINS in post.
They say Phillips has “devoted her life to hearing and amplifying the voices of women and girls who would have otherwise been unheard”.

Angela Rayner accidentally pays less tax than she should have, resigns, and the media gives her hell.
Nigel Farage deliberately pays less tax than he should have, and the media gives him a free pass.
That, right there, is the problem.

If Rayner had set out to minimise her tax bill, she could have waited til her son turned 18 before buying the Hove house. She didn't because she wasn't trying to minimise her tax bill.

Reform is polling strongly and seemingly controls the news agenda on everything from energy bills to migrant hotels.
But with just four MPs, its real power lies in the 13 councils it controls. So how’s it faring on the ground?
