I wish it didn’t feel so unusual and inspiring to see a leader treating everyone like they matter and saying that we have a responsibility to help each other
Combatting poverty and hunger in this city will take every single one of us. Myself included.

The government figuring this out slowly over the coming two years is going to be quite something to behold.
I think the government meant to cut net migration but have accidentally overshot the target by a lot. They haven’t realised this yet.

💔 Life in Kherson is a daily struggle. Anti-drone nets hang over the streets, burned cars hit by Russian drones stand by the roadside, and artillery shells stick out of the ground.
Still, the city keeps going, no matter how much Russia tries to destroy it.

The Scottish Government rightly allocated tens of millions to protect families from the cruel two child benefit cap.
Thankfully, that cap is now being scrapped. The money allocated should now instead be used to expand free school meals.
