MPs are still having to table amendments to the toxic DWP Welfare Bill

The idea that the DWP will still reassess someone with Parkinson’s or MS - and then potentially cut the Health Element of Universal Credit - is both medically incoherent and morally reprehensible

Contrary to media reports after the 2025 local elections, there was no Reform UK landslide, just an outdated voting system that needs reforming.

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

Banning bonuses for failing water company bosses is important, obvs - but it’s hardly the best we can do? 👀 If we’re serious about ending pollution for profit, water needs to be brought back into public ownership *now*. The fact that Labour Govt won’t even allow it to be considered speaks volumes
Bonuses banned for 10 English water bosses over sewage pollution
Sanctions, including for Thames Water CEO, announced as part of new government powers under Water Act

It's amazing how the same politicians can describe VAT on public school fees as an attack on aspirational parents and then argue that free school meals for poor kids are a waste of money
