Ofcom is really quite cross with GB News and is seriously thinking about beginning to consider what to do about it theguardian.com/media/article/…

Extraordinarily open interview. ⬇️

About to do one of my regular(ish) chats with Pat Kenny Newstalk

When I was first elected: Schools in areas with illegal air pollution levels: almost 500.

Now: Schools in areas with illegal air pollution levels: less than 20.

And because of our policies to clean up London's dirty air, it'll soon be zero.

Gov knows exactly the issue they have caused but there is deafening silence on this. Two thirds of all local authorities are in deficit on the school grant to the tune of £1bn. But look the other way at our new Sex Ed guidance everyone….

Brexit border controls, which will make trade with our European neighbours massively more difficult and expensive, will cost us at least £4.7 billion to implement, according to a new National Audit Office report.

That is his ‘Patriotism’.

Political editor of The Sun, Kate Ferguson, who just posted a grim and invasive piece about Angela Rayner is reported to be in a relationship with Tory Party Chair, Richard Holden.

Firstly, ew.

Secondly, bit of a conflict of interest isn’t it?

Free press my arse.

The people of Paris bravely standing up to the EU edicts and showing their resistance to Brussels

So Conservative donor David Ross, who had to resign as an adviser to Boris Johnson following a share scandal and was embroiled in a row over the funding of a luxury Caribbean retreat for the former prime minister, is instead asked about... his purchase of the Ed Stone #bbclaurak

Can we have a pic of you and your boyfriend Ric Holden, chair of Tory party leaving your house Kate ?? Just so Sun readers know who’s really writing this crap !

A man who lives in Monaco and so doesn’t pay as much tax as he would if he here full time, complains there aren’t enough public services and blames immigrants.

Interesting.

This is absolutely right from John Harris and suspect it is one of many problems that the Tories plan to leave for Labour by which time the costs to bail out council SEND deficits will be even more mind boggling. Remember these are the most vulnerable and needy children …
