When Rishi Sunak made the Vaccine deal with Moderna as Chancellor, he had up to £530m invested in Moderna.

Now Michelle Mone is desperately bringing it up.

Like if you want Mone on trial.

Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a £37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how the Tories handled the pandemic.

If I came from a family that has held a seat in House of Lords for 7 generations and used it to protect their vast empire from Tax and Inheritance Tax.

I probably wouldn't be complaining about free bus passes for Senior Citizens.

You'd look ridiculous.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

Incredibly sad to learn of the death of Baroness Helen Newlove. She will be an enormous loss to politics, missed by all the victims and survivors she worked so hard to support and champion, and of course most acutely by her family and friends.

May her memory forever be a blessing ❤️

BBC News bulletins leading on the story of an Algerian man being mistakenly released by the prison service.

Funnily enough I don't remember these cases ever leading the bulletins when an average of ten prisoners were mistakenly released a month in the final year of the last Government

Anyone remember the media reporting the 672 prisoners released in error between March 2012 and March 2023, because I don't remember hearing anything about this.

Not sure why this was kind of buried in the Guardian story

Kent leader Kemkaran "failed to ensure that her register of interests listed the fact that her husband is the director of digital transformation at East Kent’s health authority"

It's a criminal offence to knowingly omit relevant interests.

TV News all reporting on MPs report about cost of asylum hotels.

*None* giving the #facts:
- *Tories* started use, set up contracts & stopped processing claims.
- Tories filled *400 hotels*
- Labour rapidly processing claims, reducing use (now <210)
- Only 1/3 in hotels

I was quite surprised, given the amount of negative press that would have you believe that this government is the worst we’ve had yet.

I’ll put the link in the next post but given we had a complete shit show with the Tories, this is astonishing. Do reshare or bookmark the link, it’s handy.

If we get a day to remember the 1,200 Israelis who were killed on October 7th.

We would need every day of the year and then another half a year to remember the 600,000+ Palestinians who Israel have murdered.

'Farage Boats' is a useful term and should be normalised.
“I would gently point out to Nigel Farage that before we left the EU we had a returns agreement with every country in the EU. He told the country it would make no difference if we left. He was wrong about that. These are Farage boats in many senses coming across the channel” 👏
