Every single question Sir

on the 19th of January was about cake. Not one question about Ukraine. Meanwhile the UK government, led by

was doing this 👇🏾
Here's a time-lapse of all of the United Kingdom to
#Ukraine
weapons airlift flights from the morning of the 17th of January to this very minute on the 19th of January 2022. The UK has no intention of letting Ukraine fall.
In recent weeks the Sunaks have given more than £100,000 to help disadvantaged children get a world-class education, paid vast amounts of tax to the UK and India, and now they will voluntarily pay more UK tax. I wish we had more people like the Sunaks.

say you'll scrap the ECHR and ship them to Rwanda and you'll get my vote.
Channel 4 debate. Where I draw attention to the elephant in the room … increased NHS funding + increased number of doctors/nurses = NHS treating fewer people and poorer services. 🤔 why? Nobody had an answer.
No one new is voting for Labour.
Kingswood 2019 - 16,492 votes for labour

Wellingborough 2019 - 13,737 labour votes
Wellingborough 2024 - 13,844 labour votes
What would it be like if the Tories kept Boris?
The media are the opposition to the tories. If
@Conservatives
want to win the next GE they need to go for the jugular in every interview, show the public how ill-informed the presenters are. Go in hard.
And now it looks like we will leave the
#ECHR
. Could this

policy be any better? 🥳 oh and Labour still on the side of unlimited immigration.
#BackBoris
Conservative MPs might not admit that Sunak is out of his depth, but it was obvious by his performance today that he knows he isn’t cut out for the top job. Dire, dull, lacklustre …

What is it with people in this country not accepting the outcome of a vote?
#WheresNickBrown
What did Nick Brown do? He has been “cooperating fully with the investigation for 8 months” now. It must be pretty bad, the Nuremberg trials only lasted 11 months.
Quick question. Did I dream that
@liambyrnemp
got done for bullying? I only ask because the media seem to be obsessed with a story of an mp looking at some porn and not at all bothered about the more serious crime of bullying.
We have entered the unhealthy situation of a rapacious media setting out to be a hostile opposition to the government. The British media have skewed, misread, and failed to report aspects of every story involving the PM for over a year.
@JujuliaGrace
It never fails to move me when I think about how lucky we are to live in the UK. People on the same continent as us are fighting for their lives and a person on the UK takes to social media to shout at a picture of a wheelie bin.
"We'll need to clean up politics"
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer pledges a "total crackdown on cronyism" and adds "nobody will be above the law in a Britain that I lead"

Which Labour MP are you? The one who flipped their second home or the one whose husband made half a million through the sale of housing association property?

Wonder why the BBC doesn't make a modern day version of this. Modern day equivalent Mrs Brown's Boys. Drag Race. Celebrity Pointless Probably couldn't afford

to do the sports bit.
Many people seem to think Mr Cummings said he drove to test his eyesight. Hate to be that chap who listened to what Mr Cummings actually said, rather than what the media reported, but here it is in written form.
People should listen to this interview with Angela. She, like many others, faces daily abuse and threats.
As she says, it’s ok to disagree with or dislike what politicians say or do, but leaving them fearing for themselves or their families’ safety, is absolutely not ok 👇

'I did not threaten the Speaker in any way whatsoever'
@Keir_Starmer
says he simply 'urged'
@CommonsSpeaker
to 'ensure we had the broadest possible debate'
No longer bound by BBC rules on impartiality, let me just say what a moronic and offensive comment.
If I’m not mistaken didn’t you have a deputy chief whip appointed even tho his past form as a sex pest was well known and documented?
'I can assure you and the public that they are all completely innocent and within the rules.'
Former Prime Minister Boris Johnson tells

further allegations he broke lockdown rules are "absolute nonsense".

Every single Labour candidate, councillor, and MP, tried to make Corbyn PM, they knew exactly what he is and they did not and do not care.

UK population: 67 million

A fair chunk of their weekly food shop during a poverty crisis.
But stroking the royal baton is worth more apparently.

One of the few

MPs who has come out of the last two years with his reputation intact, as well as speaking uncomfortable truths to the public and his party.
We need more of him, many more.

No I’m denying that he didn’t apologise for it. He apologised in his autobiography Full Disclosure. Owen should read it he might get some tips on how to be a journalist.
A prediction.
Not long after Boris leaves office the media will publish a story about how much money he is making, they will say something like "while people are choosing between heating and eating, Boris is making £x millions."
Former Lib Dem leader Sir Vince Cable says he will not join calls for former Post Office boss Paula Vennells to lose her CBE over the Horizon scandal.
"She has issued a collective apology and a very sincere apology."
