@CharleneWhite You'll be fab Charlene, although being stuck with Matt Hancock is surely a worse punishment than any task they can throw you at you.

He should lose the Whip for this.
RT @TheHoogie: Jonathan Gullis has just been incredibly irresponsible on #channel4news by fanning fear and hatred of asylum seekers and then saying his constituency has more than 800 with another 82 on the way - AND THEN NAMING THE HOTEL where they’ll be staying. Especially after yesterday

Even if you think this will never apply to you, taking a moment to learn what to do in this situation could save your life and the lives of those around you.

He's right (and let's not forget electoral reform too, after the sorry mess we've seen in the last few months) 👇🏻
RT @davidyelland: Brexit has crippled our politics and Labour show no sign, publicly, of addressing this. Without the single market the UK is doomed as Guy Hands so eloquently told @BBCr4today. We need the LibDems to do well come the election.

RT @sunny_hundal: Right now, this is/should be the biggest story in Europe.
The price of natural gas is falling very fast again, thanks to growing stockpiles & expectations of warmer weather.
If this sustains, then electricity prices & inflation should fall quickly too 🥳🥳

We need a General Election now and the Conservatives out of power.

It's completely and utterly unacceptable that people are being left to suffer and struggle in this way. Sadly these stories are not uncommon and we will hear more of them for as long as the Conservatives remain in power.

Met senior leaders liked Priti Patel because she was seen to be on their side (not women who felt strongly about Sarah Everard's murder). No one had a more powerful voice when it mattered than the Home Secretary and she did nothing. This is an incredible rewriting of history.
