Angela Rayner is no con women. I hope people realise we just lost a good un! How terribly sad - for her- the government and ourselves.
There was no other choice however.

Angela Rayner has stood down from government after the prime minister’s ethics adviser found she had breached the ministerial code over her underpayment of stamp duty on her £800,000 seaside flat
Angela Rayner resigns over stamp duty row
Rayner’s departure is deeply damaging to prime minister who had initially stood by her

The Narrow Road to the Deep North – Jacob Elordi, Justin Kurzel and Ciarán Hinds discuss the screen adaptation of Richard Flanagan’s novel
The Narrow Road to the Deep North is a savagely beautiful five-part series directed by Justin Kurzel charting the life of Dorrigo Evans (played by Jacob Elordi as a young man, with Ciarán Hinds as the older Dorrigo), through his passionate love affair with Amy Mulvaney (Odessa Young), his time held captive in a prisoner-of-war camp, and his later years spent as a revered surgeon and reluctant war hero.

McGovern has done some powerful stuff. But nothing, nothing comes close to this. Wanted to turn off so many times but was gripped.

Zia Yusuf's hypothetical account of what Nigel Farage's first act as Prime Minister would be is a silly piece of political fan fiction. This fantasy would not happen.
The reasons why it would not happen (which means Reform have no real policy on boats) are underexplored.

I always watch #24hoursinpolicecustody and think this episode won't be so bad - then am shocked and sickened to the core of what this episode exposed. the comments on his posts by the friends and family who were complicit were surely guilty.
Craig - not one display of remorse.

dear God, the #24HoursInPoliceCustody on this appalling, horrifying predator was grim, but massive kudos to the brave young women who came forward and helped convict him. Hope more of his victims come forward and lock him up for the rest of his days www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Hopes TV show about Peterborough rapist will identify more victims

MORE: It means - a 10% baseline tariff on countries that didn’t reciprocate but China will see increased tariffs of 125%
President Trump has rowed back on his tariffs announced last Wednesday
Not exactly clear which countries are going to benefit
Waiting for clarification …

I highly recommend spending time examining @calmerfuture.bsky.social innovative thinking and ideas
I know it is a scary and confusing time right now – I'm scared too
but I think we have to focus on the future we want, rather than only what we are scared of
I've found that suggests new solutions to deeper problems we may not even have recognised

Terrific reporting by @nytimes.com. Shame the British media can’t expose this for themselves. Will only fuel suspicion that Farage and his Brexit gang are - and have always been - a Putinist front

The aerospace company H.R. Smith Group was an early backer of the party after Nigel Farage became leader. Reform has faced criticism over comments seen as supporting Moscow.

Labour made big cuts to public spending and hiked taxes, and word is more cuts and tax rises are coming.
No wonder after 9 months, the public have realised Labour will not improve their lives.
