I would encourage all voters in the Tudor ward of Kingston upon Thames to vote for Tory candidate, Ben Mallett. He's the chap pictured here in his braces, lying on the floor at an illegal party during lockdown in 2020. #LocalElections2022

Just discovered that one of the Tory candidates in my ward in the local elections is....the guy in this photo in the red patterned braces lying on the ground, with a wine glass in hand.
EXCLUSIVE: Extraordinary image of raucous Christmas party thrown by Tory aides at party HQ during coronavirus restrictions last year. Party hats, drinks, an entire buffet - while we were all banned from meeting just one other person socially indoors. https://t.co/ykGoZZGckk

This government has dithered and failed on key decisions throughout this pandemic, costing billions in waste. Now, they want struggling families to pick up the tab. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Brendan Cox, the husband of Jo Cox, says the fatal stabbing of Sir David Amess, "brings everything back"
My thoughts and love are with David’s family. They are all that matter now. This brings everything back. The pain, the loss, but also how much love the public gave us following the loss of Jo. I hope we can do the same for David now.

This is tragic and horrible news. My thoughts are with David’s wife and children, the wider family, friends and David’s community. A truly terrible day for British politics but most importantly of all our prayers are with all the people who loved David.

When Brexit promises turn out to be whoppers don’t expect contrition from those who peddled them.
