I'm frustrated by Government's hesitancy in: 1. Dealing forcibly with the criminality of sections of the press. 2. Strongly limiting the right of tech giants to publish harmful material 3. Rebuilding economic and cultural ties with Europe. In each case polls show clear popular backing. Why wait?

“What’s Kemi Badenoch’s red line? Does she have one? The Conservative party’s argument is that its calls for a fresh national inquiry into the grooming gangs”

Nigel Farage is trying to pretend this didn't happen.

Would be great to make sure everyone knows that it did.
