Also, can I just say, personally, I think it is fully insane that a lot of soft left MPs have decided that Louise Haigh doing something daft at the start of her career re: a lost mobile phone is electoral Kryptonite but Angela Rayner's May 2025 home purchase is no big deal.

Say what you like about the British press, but I find it reassuring that they spend months ripping apart a Labour PM for properly declaring some glasses and football tickets, then all but ignore someone who wants to be PM when he tries to cover up a £5 million gift.

this really does make me despair. this is a woman who has just got elected as a Reform councillor. she works for the NHS and wants to know “where the money is going”. it’s going on social care, babe
Clinical lead for the NHS and registered mental health nurse Conaghan said she was feeling "excited and nervous".
"I can't wait to see where all this money is going and finally get it back on our streets," she said.

Yes great, but the last time he said this he followed it up with asylum policies which divided people and played on their sense of grievance. Hopefully the departure of McSweeney means things will be different this time, but I'm sceptical.

A woman discovered her dog had almost no brain after taking her to the vet for a seizure. This is Maggie. She had hydrocephalus, a fluid buildup in the brain cavity that filled 95% of her skull. Low sodium levels kept the disease at bay and allowed her to live to the ripe old age of 12. 13/10
a gray and white mini australian shepherd with icy blue eyes sits in a field of grass with sun shining directly on her. her mouth is open, exposing her pink tongue, and she's wearing a pink bandana. her eyes seem as if they're looking straight past the camera.Maggie's brain scan is compared to that of a "normal dog." on the left, Maggie's brain cavity is full of white fluid. on the right, another dog has clear brain matter and folds.the aussie lays in some grass with her front paws spread out. she is staring directly into the camera with her blue eyes. she's older now and seems very content to rest out here in the yard.
