Time to launch my manifesto: 1. Creation of a new meal between breakfast and brunch 2. If it's not sunny on a bank holiday everyone gets a rollover until it is 3. Legally declare that nostalgia isn't as good as it used to be 4. Rename the Isle of Dogs (it's actually a peninsula)

Today, a mother-of-three has been jailed for 28 months after using abortion pills to end her own pregnancy. No woman can ever go through this again. We need abortion law reform in Great Britain NOW. #TimeToAct
Tomorrow, a woman in England will be sentenced for ending her own pregnancy. The maximum sentence she could receive is up to life imprisonment - the harshest penalty in the world. We need abortion law reform now. Report from @HannahAlOthman in today’s @thetimes

You voted for Derby to be the new home of the Great British Railways HQ & we won - by more than 5000 votes (Derby got 45,600). Well done to the other great cities who put up strong competition. Rail must be an engine for green growth across the Midlands & North led by Derby 💪

To all those asking me "why are standing charges going up again?" I've campaigned against it publicly and formally so I am the wrong person to ask to justify it. It creates a moral hazard & disincentivises low use. It needs to change (coupled with a social tariff).
What will the new energy standing charge and unit rates be in April? Full region by region details for Direct Debit, Prepay, Pay in Receipt of bills, and a calculator to work out what you'll pay here... https://t.co/ckLRK4g3Xt Feel free to share.
