Did your MP stand up for what's right? Did they defend the integrity of parliament? Mine didn't. Shame on you @jcartlidgemp.

This #PrivilegesCommittee report is about more than just one rogue PM - it's a vital part of the fight back against post-truth politics. What's at stake is nothing less than the democratic principles at the heart of our political system - abstention is complicity.

They were partying at the exact time my brother died alone in hospital of Covid. 7pm on 14/12/20. 19 days after my mum also died in hospital alone. I can’t even speak I am so distraught and incandescent with rage.
They weren’t just partying while we grieved. They were laughing at us while we grieved. #partygate #notmovingon

@Haggis_UK While they partied through lockdown, 10 million could not attend funerals. Now they will say move on. #Partygate

We're all a bit Roy Kent 🤪 For all of those who did play at a level where it meant a lot, whatever the sport. #tedlassoseason3

Your statement is incorrect. The Parliament Acts of 1911 & 1949 curb power of the Lords to block Bills only. Last night, Lords were discussing a Statutory Instrument, not a Bill. Govt used SI to enact primary legislation, an unprecedented act. More here. https://t.co/Z2SA7Uciu4

In a report published on 11 May, the House of Lords Secondary Legislation Scrutiny Committee (“SLSC”) drew attention to a constitutional issue of considerable interest and novelty. The SLSC drew th…
An unelected House of Lords can’t block an elected House of Commons. If you don’t want Tory laws to go through Parliament elect a Labour government.

If you held off using the Google Max advertising tool because you couldn't block ads from appearing on sites like the Daily Mail, apparently now you can. Tell enough other people, and it may really start to hurt the pockets of the merchants of hate...
Anyway, you’ll never guess what?! The Google CEO hasn’t replied, he hasn’t communicated with us and we don’t know if our letter helped *but* IT Phil phoned with some great news this week. “Guys! There’s a button. We can opt out of advertising on the Daily Mail’s website so we can

Shaun Bailey, who ran unsuccessfully for London mayor, gets a peerage. Ben Mallett, a close friend of Carrie Johnson’s who ran Zac Goldsmith’s disastrous mayoral campaign, gets an OBE. They’re both in this picture of lockdown busting party at CCHQ 👇🏼

Sorry Novak, Kosovo is not part of Serbia. When it was, your leaders massacred 1000s of its civilians, as they’d done earlier in Bosnia. I was there. For Djokovic to defend his ‘Kosovo is the heart of Serbia’ message is his business. It’s also poisonous. https://t.co/LcFbYdqzp0

.@GreenJennyJones in Lords raising the issue of us paying the water companies too much and how we should be getting a refund. The Tory then gaslights saying "companies need to pay shareholders to encourage more investment to sort out the problems" Categorical lie. Go Jenny
Baroness Jenny Jones(Green Party) - "We customers have paid the water companies all the money that they needed to do their job properly... so surely we're owed a refund, rather than paying more bills?"

🧵The Tories are playing a shell game with the cost of incoming border controls. Jacob Rees-Mogg explained they will cost businesses £1 billion a year when he announced a delay. £1 billion. A year. Every year. Please keep that figure in mind when you read the next tweet. 1/4

"More than 13,000 people in England denied vote due to new ID law" That's more than a thousand times the cases of voter fraud over the last few years. Like dropping a bomb to kill an ant.
reuters.com
More than 13,000 people were denied a vote in local elections this month because of the government's new identification law, with those in poorer areas most impacted, according to a Reuters survey.

Apparently a van caught fire in Newton last night. Obviously not newsworthy as it wasn't a Tesla. #petrolheadmuppets

I stood against the suspended Tory as a deliberate choice. It's time for a change!
It's clearly what they're relying on. Well, they can hardly dare stand on their national record of shame, sleaze and scandal can they? One of their candidates is currently suspended from attending meetings due to his behaviour, and another candidate
