A woman is killed by a man every 3 days in the UK...
78% are murdered by a partner/ex
Yet not once have I heard Reform talk about this
Not once have I heard them back measures to protect women’s safety
In fact, they voted against them...

I'm sure it's a big deal Andrew is no longer a prince, has been stripped of some titles (who knows what that means) and has to deal with the 'shame' of moving from one royal lodge in total luxury to another, smaller one. I'm sure it really stings.
But I'd feel better if he was in jail.

Almost like allowing private equity to take over the children's home market was a terrible idea.

Farage put his Clacton house in to his girlfriend Laure's name, avoiding tens of thousands of pounds like Rayner.
But he won’t tell you that.

Angela Rayner accidentally pays less tax than she should have, resigns, and the media gives her hell.
Nigel Farage deliberately pays less tax than he should have, and the media gives him a free pass.

I know I say this every year, but with results day on the horizon, please remember that for some kids grade 1-3 is a huge achievement. It represents years of hard work and determination. It’s not a fail. It is a GCSE qualification that they can and should be celebrated for.

John Prescott was a politician both behind and ahead of his time. Considered too bluff and old Labour to reach to the very top in the 90s, today his authenticity and class credentials would have been perfect to fight Farage and populism. Labour needs more like him.

But the consequences of this are not popular and ultimately matter more both in the real world and electorally.
