Defence secretary Grant Shapps has claimed that the Labour party controls the House of Lords and has a majority there. This is incorrect. No party has an overall majority and there are considerably more Conservative peers than Labour. buff.ly/48I2dr8

Wow. What a perspective to have on council staff. Daft ideas including, for example, supporting people into work, supporting people that need social care, a home or a family.

I don't think this is the great answer he thinks it is. Wonder what voters in Hatfield think of their councillor right now? He's still happy to prop the party up! #Hatfield #welwynhatfield #ToriesPartiedWhilePeopleDied
"I was aware of the parties in Downing Street. I didn't attend any of the parties. One of the reasons I chose to leaving Downing Street is because I didn't want to be a part of some of the things I was seeing." Samuel Kasumu, former Boris Johnson advisor @metpoliceuk evidence?

This (now deleted) Home Office tweet is not only most honest thing that they’ve said but also the best idea that they’ve come up with in many years.

Under law, physically restraining children requires serious justification and be used only when absolutely necessary, with no intention of causing pain. The Illegal Migration Bill would hand the Home Secretary new powers to detain & remove children... 1/2 independent.co.uk/news/uk/ho…

Yesterday the Government chose to: β›ˆοΈ delay the deadline for banning horticultural #peat by 7 years β›ˆοΈ set a deadline for scrapping unrecorded rights of way Both back-tracking, out of the blue and without consultation. Bad news for nature, climate & communities.

I'm genuinely so shocked by this. JK Rowling RT to her 14m followers a pic erasing trans representation AND erasing people of colour, referring to them as shit?!

If anyone has a secret mobile phone hidden from an abusive partner, remember to switch off emergency alerts, or the phone will be activated with the loud alert on the evening of 23/04. I think this government action is misguided for a few reasons Please retweet to notify friends.

14 months and counting #GeneralElectionN0W If you want to make change, local political parties are grateful for more help. You could deliver leaflets, attend a quiz night, become a member .... Small things make a massive impact πŸ‘Œ

If this infuriates you, and it should, join us next weekend β€” Saturday, 11 March 2023 β€” for what will be one of the largest NHS marches in British history. We must send a message to @RishiSunak's govt: we will no longer tolerate the destruction of our NHS. #SOSNHSDEMO
