Tory-run Slough has “lost track” of 500 people living in temporary accommodation, meaning it underestimated its spending by £10m. It blames staff turnover and incompetence, and a new IT system; but while the blunder was spotted in October 2024, officers have only just fessed up to councillors.

Our local Mosque is hosting an evening of Free Indian meals this Christmas in partnership with Tranmere Rovers🎄

Because they care about their community.

I wonder how many free meals Farage is handing out over this Christmas? I wonder if he is working as tirelessly for his local community?

Jo Cox was murdered before the vote by a far-right terrorist & this is the language this complete disgrace chooses to use

Again these people aren't patriots.

They hate our country and are allied to others who hate it too.

Nothing will ever be achieved by seeking to appease them

pleased to say that only around four hours stood between "alright, last week before Christmas, need to make an effort to eat healthily until then" and "hehe, spaghett :)"

Let’s get this beautiful song Lullaby to number one this Christmas 🎄
It’s sung by incredibly talented British and Palestinian artists, every penny raised will go to life-saving funds for people in Gaza 🇵🇸

@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social why is this profile still available on the BBC website?
@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social probably tell your website colleagues to take this profile of Robert Cousen down off your website considering he’s just been done for sending inappropriate pictures to a colleague 😬🙅🏻‍♀️

If @mrjamesob.bsky.social is going to give your website a shout out right before Christmas, make sure you have the servers ready to withstand the increased traffic 😂

Keep renspantry.com in your thoughts and prayers today 🙏🏼

Farage had to come out hiding early because Tice tried to defend him earlier & libelled the target of Farage’s vicious anti-semitism. Rarely have two people deserved each other more.

On Truss & Kwarteng in ‘22. Allister Heath, Telegraph: “the best budget I have ever heard a British chancellor deliver". Alex Brummer, Mail: “a genuine Tory package elbowing to one side the Treasury's fiscal conservatism".
These men will now be paid actual money for their analysis of today’s budget.

Plus sides to today: Two-child benefit scrapped. Largely progressive tax implications. Good market reaction. No big spending cuts. Nightmare prospect of cutting funding to net zero etc avoided. It's a left-wing budget. Those who say there's no difference between Labour and Tories are bananas.

And that's it. Overall impressions are
- there's still a surprising lack of detail
- lots of new work for officials but unlikely to lead to much change on the ground
- refugees will still live here rest of their lives but will struggle even more than before to integrate

Could prob accept some pretty draconian small boat policies if there was a genuine safe route policy alongside it. So far we have no details at all.

Without asylum:

Marks and Spencer wouldn't exist

Queen would have been without a front man

The other queen wouldn't have had a husband

Judith Kerr would never have written The Tiger Who Came to Tea

And thousands of less famous people wouldn't have been teachers, politicians, neighbours, etc
