Pam Hogg has passed away #rippamhogg

She was so lovely, and had a real presence of greatness, but with grace and class and beyond humble.

She was a hard working designer, hand stitching everything on the runway.

She was the rock and roll girl with a strong social conscience☠️🌹 so very sad

My attendance record in the European Parliament was the 4th worst out of 751 MEPs, yet I managed to turn up to vote AGAINST plans to tackle Russian misinformation.
Thankfully this is of no interest to the media.
