Please read all of Jen's thread, but I have genuinely gone insane covering this story full time for the last three years because it feels like nobody gives a shit about HALF A BILLION POUNDS of unsecured public sector loans.
Ppl like @rbrooks45.bsky.social @leighsus.bsky.social and I haven’t been writing about all this because we’re randomly trying to cause trouble. It’s because we could see red flags everywhere. But the government will only find out why if they look - and perhaps they don’t want to know.

@samcoatessky.bsky.social hi Sam, this morning you stated “…the main opposition parties, the Cons and Reform UK…”

Unless I missed 67 Parliamentary by-elections since July, the Lib Dems are very much the main opposition party with the Cons, not Reform.

Do we have to keep doing this?

Labour has a HUGE majority and 4 years until a general election. It could spend that time countering the lies, instead of reinforcing them and ceding the narrative to a liar like Nigel Farage.
