"Integrity, professionalism & accountability" Sunak promised. Yet 1 year later Govt publishes formal

response just when prorogation starts, so no chance to scrutinise Ministers on their claims. We've ended up with disrepute, cynicism & cowardice

What the fossil fuel lobby wants, the fossil fuel lobby gets. This Govt is taking their donations, offering privileged access & handing over vast tax breaks to pollute even more. Time to kick fossil fuels out of politics once & for all

Govt had a manifesto pledge to ban 'conversion therapy'. 4 years later, why haven't they? In 1st line of this answer to my Q, Minister straightforwardly admits practice is abhorrent. In 2nd line he pivots, says it's 'very complex' & prevaricates. This ban must be in

One year ago today, Sunak became our new Prime Minister. In 12 months he has willingly taken a wrecking ball to climate & nature. Our country & planet can’t afford another year like this one – time to end climate destruction, step up climate action, & call a general election now.

In case you were wondering what this Govt's priorities were, look no further - Ministers are now planning to scrap the EU cap on bankers' bonuses. More money for city fatcats in the middle of a cost of living scandal - post-Brexit Britain in a nutshell.
