Was Hague who stitched up the LDs in Coalition negs. Claimed afterwards that he’d destroyed them. Came true 2015.

Obviously it’s the charging for plastic bags, as that’s pretty much the only bit of success for the Lib Dems.

As ever, and for the last time in connection with lying shit Jeffrey Archer, we remember Monica Coghlan, whose life he destroyed.

The Left generally see MPs as delegates- but only when they have a majority.

Every wednesday my husband cooks dinner for a group of pensioners, his dad and some of his parents pals. They are politically and financially mixed. All said they dont care about the triple lock but all want social care sorting.

Bad news, everyone - Brexit has apparently caused the entire United Kingdom to detach from Europe and drift several thousand miles west. We are now slowly approaching Newfoundland. Can someone please let Eurostar now there might be some issues.

The major pension change of 5 extra years for women was announced in 1995, with 15 years till implementing gradually. All years before the triple lock was created.

The rich would prefer you to believe that the "free market" is subject to the immutable law of supply and demand. But for years, the wealthy and powerful have manipulated the market for their own gain. There is nothing “free” about it. Watch.

I think once black clad men are interfering with rescues at sea, we are past "legitimate concerns". Once they're attacking boats, and risking the lives of everyone on board, it's just thuggery. The Home Secretary's statement is on the side of criminals. There's no other way to read it.

Compared to our bit of France where it's always just the 11th; ceremonies at both war memorials (one Resistance), and a vin d'honour at the Mairie with locals, including nonagenarians who experienced occupation and loss of family.
