In these times of rancour & division, it’s comforting to find things on which we can all agree: Kent County Council, for example, really does provide a perfect illustration of how well Reform would run the country. I agree with Nigel!

Have to say... I support this. You should need a license for fireworks, and they shouldn't be for sale in normal stores.

We saw kids fire off large rockets right beside a Multi and they shot up and exploded beside the top windows - just meters away.

Petition: Limit the sale of fireworks to those running local council approved events only
Ban the sale of fireworks to the general public to minimise the harm caused to vulnerable people and animals. Defenceless animals can die from the distress caused by fireworks. I believe that permitt...

From FB: Wow... flashbacks. I remember my mum using these for years until she finally got a dryer, but the clothes were still washed in the sink.

The Mangle was hard work, and we used it until the mid 80s...

Major reason: "revenge evictions’. people “threatened with eviction as a result of raising a complaint"

Care homes are mostly in the private sector, owned by corporations and private equity, profit margins of up to 40%.
Revealed: Thousands of elderly people evicted from care homes every year

Yorkshire Water flouted director pay rules, secretly handed £660k bonus through offshore parent company.

Regulator OFWAT says that is OK, govt quiet.

Law is just a paper tiger. Abuses continue. Customers fleeced.

Let customers vote on exec pay.

From FB: Unionists have been wanting to Scrap Scotland's free higher education ever since it was introduced.

Scots are some of the best educated people in the world.

From FB: A reminder that unionists fought tooth-and-nail to stop this, and still complain about it, yet loads of other countries see it, and want it as well.

Before Devolution, Scotland had ALL the top 10 poorest places in the UK. Once @theSNP took power, Scotland now longer has ANY of the top 10 poorest places.

That's Scotland's Government working for Scots, lifting normal people out of of poverty - something Westminster has never cared about doing.
13 East Anglian neighbourhoods are among England’s most deprived 1%. Every one lies on the coast. The poorest voted Reform. A warning about what happens when seaside towns are left behind.
East Anglia: home to the richest and poorest
The Office for National Statistics has just published a report on deprivation in communities across England. What does it tell us about our deeply divided region?
