Nigel Farage's council leader in Leicestershire used to say consultants were a waste of money.

Now he's spending £1.4 million on them.

Some good news.

London is meeting legal limits for toxic NO2 pollution for the first time – almost 200 years earlier than predicted – following the Mayor’s "world leading air pollution policies," City Hall announces.

The Ultra Low Emissions Zone - and similar policies - really do work.

Nigel Farage is unpatriotic.

Nigel Farage has reportedly flown across the Atlantic to call for economic sanctions against Britain.

Nothing could be less patriotic than actively encouraging a foreign power to take action to make the British people poorer.

Correction: it's not "our" oil and gas once it's been drilled. It will belong to oil companies and they will sell it on the international market.

It is, however, "our" climate" and "our" future that will be harmed if this policy to ignore clear scientific facts and urgent warnings is implemented.

This is one of the most powerful things you’ll watch online or TV. It puts the Tories, and in particular Kemi Badenoch, to shame.
Not to mention anyone else who has tried to use the horror of the grooming gangs for political point-scoring.

If you don’t want history to be re-written please share this video widely - because the only way to stop that happening is to constantly call this boll**** out with the actual facts
If UK news shows are going to give Nigel Farage a platform to spout this absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it

We cannot allow them to rewrite history.

If you agree share this FACT CHECK widely

Victims of ‘grooming gangs’ have been badly let down, but children must be protected on social media as well as in the real world Two seemingly contradictory things are true. It was appalling for the UK’s domestic policy agenda to be hijacked last week…

Wow. Imagine the shock for the Daily Mail when it finds out Tory plans were for fines of £5k - later reduced to £3k - for each missed heat pump sale. What Ed Miliband has done is to reduce that to £500. As @torstenbell.bsky.social says today Headline should read “Miliband slashes Tory boiler tax”

First day on #Bluesky so thought I'd say hi. As does Lulu (with her bestie). Lulu does unspeakable things to that stuffed toy. And she makes me hold it while she does. But she avoids eye contact...
