Broadcaster Dame Esther Rantzen has died aged 86. She hosted this incredibly moving 1988 'That's Life!' episode, introducing Sir Nicholas Winton to people he saved from the Holocaust, when they were children in Prague in 1939. "Can I ask, is there anyone here tonight who owes their life to him?"

I'd like rapists to be blacklisted from offices of power. 💯
THEM: "But you'll ruin that young man's life if you report him for sexual assault."
ME: Correct. I'd prefer if he didn't get to become a Supreme Court Judge or run for President.

Let them stay home and sulk. We don't want them to vote anymore; they've done enough damage. We're motivated to vote every time we see or hear about another atrocity, another betrayal, another unhinged moment.
