The meat black market flourishes thanks to #Brexit .

The most useful thing I think I can do this morning is suggest questions to ask politicians in this election. A thread.

This is Ross Hills, Ross is a Tory party councillor

Ross (seen here in hi viz & microphone) pretended to work for McVitie's, but was in fact a Tory plant placed to ask Rishi Sunak scripted questions at a televised campaign launch

As much as I’m happy that no flights to Rwanda will take off…

As much as I’m happy that his flagship policy is now in the toilet

UK competition regulator probes £5bn a year veterinary industry.

People ripped off with excessive charges for medicines, prescriptions, pet care.

Key challenge is to tame corporate power.

I’ve been stating #Wind would become the dominant source of GB power generation within 3-5 years. I was wrong it happen last year April 23 - April 24. #NetZero #Climate #Energy

Westminster may be gripped by election fever now, but in other news tomorrow Ofwat will be deciding if greedy & failing water companies can hike bills by up to 91%. I joined nearly 40 MPs across parties calling on Ofwat to reject their outrageous demand.

#IDthought 6: At every general election, we are faced with a binary choice. With one cross, we are deemed to have signalled our agreement everything in a party’s manifesto and everything else – if it wins – it can ram through Parliament over the next five years. 🧵

Dear Students.

The Conservative Party have been attempting to suppress your ability to vote, mainly because they know most of you cannot stand them.

Migrants don't cause your problems, nor do disabled people, or pensioners, people who don't work, or even the constantly maligned Asylum Seekers.

No it is the billionaires who own the Media and Government who cause ALL your problems, and they won't ever blame themselves.

Whoever you are going to vote for, get out and vote

Not voting is exactly what they want, then you can be completely ignored.

#GeneralElection

Register to vote now. Make sure you have all the ID required.

Don't let somebody else make decisions for you.

Guardian doesn't even mention it.
That's why we're at the bottom of a septic tank - literally.
