Hey @Ed_Miliband retired mine worker here, well done for MPS can we be treated equally (BCSSS member)
The government should not be in the business of profiting from the Mineworkers Pension Scheme. There has been deep unfairness and injustice in the Conservative Government's approach. Labour will make sure miners get their fair share of the money. https://t.co/5MMhiZEDJu

I've fact-checked the claims that Jeremy Corbyn is "pro-Putin". It turns out that no politician has been more consistent or more prescient about Putin than Corbyn. When he warned about Russian donor money he was mocked. My new column for Middle East Eye: https://t.co/rrkcDmlSue

The voices that really matter in all of this, are calling out fair weather politicians 👇
@SuellaBraverman I was one of the survivors you met in Rotherham. I offered to work with you for free to highlight all of this and to change policy, laws etc and you declined. Clearly wasn’t that interested was you?

I still think Thatcher set the rot in & destroyed Britain - she made it ok to be selfish, corrupt, look after number one, loadsa money, I’m all right Jack. She made Tice/Farage/Lowe possible. And they are the lowest of the low.

This is weird. According to the Mail, Express and others I was part of a controversial episode of Saturday Kitchen. Except I wasn't (though the listings wrongly said I was). Is it possible the people who wrote these stories didn't actually watch the show? https://t.co/1Zr9dJGXHK

Saturday Kitchen viewers were left puzzled by the guest's overly energetic appearance during the latest episode on December 21.

The platypus is possibly the weirdest animal: it's a mammal but lays eggs, its duck-billed, beaver-tailed, otter-footed and venomous. It has electroreceptors for locating prey, eyes with double cones, no stomach, and 26 pairs of chromosomes. It's fluorescent and glows under UV

Anyone checking those tractors for red diesel? If they’re using it for non agricultural purposes, like a trip to London, it’s tax evasion 🤷

Someone putting their money where their mouth is Well done, keep us updated.
Hey, I have an offer for you. How about I come round for FREE, and show you what your installers did wrong, and fix your system so it achieves a GUARENTEED SCOP of 4-5? This means you will pay much less than a gas boiler to heat your home. We have a 60k YouTube channel and/or you
