No other country set up a VIP Lane during the pandemic.

No other European country came close to spending the £14billion we spent on PPE.

£10billion of PPE has been written off.

Over 1million pallets of unused PPE have now been incinerated!

£billions literally up in smoke.

'VIP Lane' author (and producer of the 'Covid Contracts documentary) @russellscott1.bsky.social talks covid cronyism with @mrjamesob.bsky.social – just as PPE Medpro is ordered to pay £122 million for providing unusable gowns.

Gavin Williamson repeatedly ignored scientific advice, which warned that school closures might be necessary.

Mr Sam Jacobs, for the TUC, asks why.

Williamson responds by accusing the TUC of having a 'natural interest not to see schools delivering education'.

Shameful.

Very few people here 🇬🇧 realise that it’s happening all over Europe now too.

Let's be fair, viewers of #GBNews are gullible enough to believe the #FarRight propaganda, it laughingly call 'news'.

Believing #GoebbelNews is like believing you are a Marine Biologist when you watch “SpongeBob Squarepants”

GB News viewers more likely to wrongly believe net migration to UK rising, study finds

Research also finds majority of people are against letting politicians front current affairs programmes

Spot on again from @bearlypolitics.co.uk 👍 … we also need to start pointing out that our population is now declining.
I chat with Reform voters and they ALL tell me that the country 🇬🇧 is full, when I start talking about population decline #fact … they look at me like I’ve got two heads 😔.

LibDem deputy leader Daisy Cooper EMBARRASED Keir Starmer at the #PMQs

The PM failed to give a clear answer to whether the government will prevent Elon Musk from funding Tommy Robinson’s trial

‘If it were Putin doing this, you would have acted immediately, why not for Musk?’

In the month since I was elected leader of the Green Party, we have gained a new member equivalent of every single minute. 24/7.

We're all smiling. But we've also got a big job to do.

Let's make hope normal again.

Visibly enthusiastic, incredibly articulate and with a winning smile that never left his face, Zack seemed entirely at home
