Here’s the latest 'scoop' being spread by right wing gobshites on Shitter. Except:
-he’s not a teacher, he’s an assistant
-the school didn’t sack him, he works for an agency
-they stopped using him not for putting up flags but for posting racist bollocks and misinformation online.

I notice all those brave journalists, Guido alumni, and Tory hacks, who manufactured a scandal - a dangerous one to national security, at that - out of gossip, supposition, and sticky tape, have gone ALL QUIET now the witness statements have been released and are exactly as the PM detailed at PMQs.

Ah! Yet another announcement about how the Labour government are supporting farming, with another funding scheme extended (whilst work is under way to produce a replacement scheme that will be more effective and fairer).

To hear many talk, Labour do nothing at all to help farmer...

Countryside Stewardship extended to support farming and nature

Thousands of farmers will receive extensions to continue restoring nature and farming sustainably, supporting long-term food security.

Tillbridge Solar Project in Lincolnshire has potential for up to 500MW of energy - equivalent for 300,000 homes.

I believe it's the 13th approval by this government for major solar and wind projects.
