Thanks Lae, I went with a standard cast off, but made the neck a little wider. Hopefully it'll be good for him

I get The Labour Rosette email, but reads like election campaign material rather than a newsletter to supporters.
I'm not criticising what the government are achieving, just think they need to be blowing their own trumpet a bit louder.

Perhaps they could start with their supporters? I'm on the Labour mailing list & the emails I get are mostly asking for donations; there is very little content telling me what they have achieved.

We didn't have a referendum on leaving the EU either, just a non-binding opinion poll 😢

I worry about the fear the mere suggestion of this policy must cause to those it would impact.
Can you imagine the horror? Having escaped such a regime & starting to rebuild your life, you now face the threat of being returned to Hell, just to satisfy the baying right wing press!
