I drove my friend to a bank, and after she came out I dropped her down the road and drove through Streatham. I'm hyper vigilant for a number of reasons, one reason- being a black yute in this here England. I looked in my rear-view mirror and noticed a car moving extremely erratic

A quick heads-up to DWP wonks that a huge tranche of almost 30 research reports has been published today (presumably held back under the previous government?) covering Universal Credit, childcare, disability & pensions - lots of interesting stuff in there

Spare us the faux outrage Robert and the leadership contest “serious face” bull💩 And use this awful moment to reflect on your language and conduct and what impact it’s had on where the country finds itself.
