Credit to the @theguardian.com which - especially post Labour's move to an 'if you can't beat them join them' strategy - is doing really important work holding Reform to account.

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.

Lviv: @realDonaldTrump’s peace plan is a Kremlin trap.

Like Nathan Gill, Trump is under the sway of Russian spies.

Ukraine fights on.

Who on earth would drive around in a car this stupid?

He’s the antithesis of a decent Englishman.
He’s sly, he’s divisive, he has, at best, a tenuous relationship with the truth.
His avarice for wealth and power knows no bounds.
Many of his acquaintances have friends who wish this country ill.
Yet, the ignorant fawn over him.

I saw a white car being driven around my hometown of Ashford, Kent, yesterday - completely covered in Union Flag graffiti, "Stop the Boats" writing, etc etc etc.
Its number plate finished with NOB.
How appropriate.

Dear Mr Farage

Since becoming an MP:
How many days you have attended parliament?
How many times have you voted in person?
How many constituency surgeries you have held?

Kind regards

Hey Keir Starmer, get the memo?

We’ve delivered thousands of messages to Number 10 from our supporters, with the help of some digi-vans!

People are fed up with politicians choosing failed policies and scapegoating over investing in all communities. Time for real change.

This case stems from the systemic failure & subsequent cover-up revealed by 2020 Russia Report. Boris Johnson refused to investigate but what is UK govt's excuse now??

Read about this 5-year campaign & why it's even more necessary than ever now.
