This is abhorrent environmental vandalism from Labour.
There is no justification for expanding airports in a climate emergency.
Labour should get on with building new railway lines - including HS2 in full - instead.

13 years ago today, I snapped this while crossing London Bridge on my way into town.
Such a moment of optimism and pride in London and these islands.
So what this country needs right now.

All the people complaining that the police have said the Liverpool driver was white British are the same people who made it necessary for the police to say he was white British.

I did consider making a speech about tackling poverty, taxing the rich, nationalising utilities and properly funding the NHS and social care, but then I thought... nah, just go full Enoch Powell.

Urgent message to Keir - please clarify that you are not abolishing the NHS.
My estimate of the % of the public who know that NHS England is an arms length management body - <1%.
Another comms own goal from the govt, I see.

Fact-checking wasn’t “biased” against conservatives. Conservatives just shared more false content. If there’s a sportsball game and one team fouls four times as much, it’s not “biased” for the ref to call four times as many fouls against that team.
