So hard being step parent of adult with physical and mental illness. Physical condition used as weapon to get attention from husband but we can’t take a chance as it will be taken to limit. Already had 6 days in ICU. NHS can’t cope with it.

Spent last three days in London not getting stabbed or robbed or overwhelmed by “illegal people”. Had really lovely time visiting exhibitions eating food and feeding my intellect.

Harborne gave the Brexit Party £6 million in 2019 and was mentioned in the Panama Papers but luckily the UK has the memory of a goldfish... so nobody talks about that

Out canvassing today. Met a woman who was opposed to the lifting of the 2 child benefit cap. How can you be in favour of poverty? Of hungry children with shoes that don’t fit?

If you were horrified watching elected leaders run & scramble because of gun violence, just imagine how my daughter Jaime felt in school running from an active shooter before she was killed. Now, become a part of the solution & only vote for people determined to address gun violence in America.

Powerful moment in the Commons as Starmer calls on Farage to apologise for the Reform councillor who shared a post calling for Labour MP Natalie Fleet to be shot, pointing out that when Farage faced death threats Starmer condemned them. Farage totally ignores that & asks about the Chago Islands.

She never lived to see this moment, but it’s worth remembering that none of this would have happened without Virginia Giuffre. She had the courage to speak out against power and privilege when it was just her word against Andrew’s. Thanks to her, justice & accountability may finally have its day.

It hasn’t gone unnoticed that all four people arrested today, including two journalists, were Black. And now we find out the charge is “conspiracy to violate civil rights,” a statute rooted in the Ku Klux Klan Act. Sit with that.

“Air pollution fell substantially as Paris restricted car traffic and made way for parks, people-streets and bike-lanes.” Better for the climate, better for health, better for livability and quality of life. Common sense. Such a no-brainer, it’s remarkable that more cities HAVEN’T done the same.

Quite apart from Tice going out to defend Farage's shady house purhcase and making things ten times worse, for the guy who says he will be the next UK Chancellor of the Exchequer to end on: "I'm not a tax expert - you're asking the wrong guy," is objectively hilarious. ~AA

If you vote Reform you will be voting against women’s equality, for more harassment in the workplace and beyond (as if there isn’t enough) Remember 41% of the Farage Foot Soldiers arrested in last summer’s disgraceful riots had already been REPORTED FOR DOMESTIC ABUSE

Reform UK voted against worker rights in parliament, favoured bad bosses. Now it supports fracking which can cause earthquakes and negative environmental impacts. Companies will make vast profits, people will pick up the tab. Many homes would be uninsurable. Who would buy affected houses?

The party is serious about going after shale gas - but critics argue it's too difficult and costly.
