23,000. That's how many deaths can be blamed on Boris Johnson's chaotic Covid decisions and delays. Enough is enough, he must be stripped of his annual £115,000 handout. Sign the petition today: 38d.gs/clhk

New christmas game just dropped: #FARAGEAGEDDON
From the 1st to 24th December how long can you go without hearing Farage spouting his usual bs?
If you hear him you're OUT & must post #FARAGEAGEDDON on you social media feed.

Good luck everyone!

Verstappen didn't win because he's a brilliant driver, it's because McLaren made a huge strategic mistake. He didn't claw back over 100 points because he's the best driver, it's because Piastri and Norris had misfortunes.

I must have missed the wall-to-wall coverage of demands for an investigation into Nigel Farage's lies about being a racist

Or about whether he knew Nathan Gill

Or about who bought his house in Frinton

Obviously a busy List today. I’ve cherry picked the obvious and included a few you might not have seen. A good week for Labour. A good week for our economy. And good week for us.

Just because it's reached the 100,000 threshold, doesn't mean anything will happen.

So keep signing and sharing, because we need to show MPs that there's a huge demand.

This is absolutely incredible. We in the UK, need to cherish and protect our NHS. This is what will happen if #farage and #reform get in. Make no mistake, he will have friends and donors that own insurance companies. This will be certain death for a lot of people. It must not happen here.
My health insurance premiums will more than double in January. I pay a little less than $500/month for my current silver plan.

I just reapplied and my new premium will be $1062/month.

And don’t forget: I still have a co-pay for every visit and pay for prescriptions.

Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement.

Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph

Because this does NOT add up!

No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies…

This is what I love about social media. A story in a paper that you know doesn't add up, but you dont know how to work it out. So along comes Emma and explains it all for you. Yet again sterling work and much appreciated.
