Enough is enough.

Scrapping the US-pharma deal would free up billions to finally tackle the A&E and social care crisis plaguing our NHS .

Remember Starmer's "urgent" review into foreign interference after Nathan Gill?

Well, there's already two ex-UK ambassadors working in Westminster on behalf of a pro-Russian foreign government whose de facto leader is under UK sanctions...

Care workers deserve fair pay, but funding it through council tax hikes won’t solve the crisis.

The government must deliver a long term plan for social care.

This is the judgment on the PPE/Medpro claim.

A cracking £122m win for the Government Legal Service

And is wonderful to see the government bringing a claim in contract against a shoddy supplier.

This does not happen often, and it should happen far more.

The Taliban’s internet blackout silences women and girls, cutting off their access to education & connection with the outside world.

This grave abuse of human rights threatens the prospect of peace & stability.

We must intensify pressure on the Taliban to lift these oppressive measures.

Sadly, East Riding of Yorkshire Council threw this idea, brought by @TomAstell of East Riding Liberal Democrats, out.
Looking to the future: Parish and Town Councils could deliver more local services
As Milton Keynes continues to grow, Parish and Town Councils across the city could soon take on more responsibility for managing community facilities and delivering local services.

If you want to know why so many farmers are protesting, please read this.

This isn't just about inheritance tax - though for many that was the final straw.

Broken promises, huge cuts to funding, appalling trade deals - the Conservatives and now Labour have betrayed our farmers.
