I’ve recently joined @TheGreenParty - they sent me an email asking if I want to register for their AGM. I’ve gone through all possible details, including the registration form - there is NO indication of the venue. Quite important, I’d suggest.

Since taking over Kent C C @reformparty_uk has been wracked by infighting and allegations of misconduct. It has so far lost NINE councillors through a combination of defection, suspensions and expulsions. And some people want them to run the country 😱

Yes, David Lammy has overall responsibility for Justice but he can’t be blamed for cock-ups at local prison level. That’s what you pay individuals to do - manage their prison!

The UK national minimum wage for young workers is £7.55. Farage thinks that's too high. Reform are the enemy of working people.

Yes, @RachelReeves may have to raise taxes, and yes that may break a manifesto promise (which govs. haven’t) but if the alternative is swingeing cuts to public spending then I know that what I don’t want is @reformparty_uk or @Conservatives hitting the majority, once again.

If @RachelReevesMP doesn’t tax unearned income at the same rate(s) as earned income, Y? If she > taxes on the majority but leaves the wealthy to get wealthier then it’s just Blair/Mandleson (intensely relaxed about the filthy rich) again. @UKLabour where’s the fairness?

THIS IS ‘X’ FOR NO:

Why far from being a disadvantage, hostility to people from different races and cultures has now become an active requirement for career advancement on the right of British politics https://t.co/DR8O0y27RZ

I worked in BBC News for years. When it frames guests on the Left (Faiza Shaheen) as “activists” (undermining them) & those on the Right as “academics” (boosting them) it’s usually a subconscious - not deliberate - decision; providing a candid insight into its institutional bias

@RotalFamily Court docs. from the US released today show Andrew told Jeffrey Epstein it would be "good to catch up in person" months after the paedophile was released from prison 4 prostituting minors. So, it’s said, not a meeting 2 end the relationship but 2 meet a banker. 😡

ENOUGH SAID:

Now Reeves in trouble, how many more times will:

Why do these flag waving 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 make England great again (UK?), deportation, more deportation, individuals NEVER respond to questions I pose? Just unsubstantiated bo**ocks NEVER defended with referenced evidence. The same goes for @reformparty_uk

Prunella Scales - RIP. You brought so much to very many.

Watching @bbcquestiontime - what’s so terrible about wanting the @RoyalFamily to be transparent about their finances. The public, support them through taxation & we should be able to investigate, openly, their financial arrangements. They are too privileged & protected. I’m not!

They say that the church is for sinners not saints, well @RoyalFamily King Charles is certainly no saint, nor me, nor most of us, and as Jesus supposedly said: [I have come to call sinners to repentance.] Luke 5:30–32. I wonder what Di would have made of it all?

#Johnson at Covid inquiry, after hours of pre hearing practice, I don’t recall, I believe that, to the best of my recollection, I think that, it was my impression that, it seems to me, it looks to me like, my memory has been contaminated [by documents read] He remains slippery 🪱

Better late than never said, just listened to @ronniewood on BBC Radio’s @DIDiscs What a genuine, original and creative individual @RollingStones 👍👍
