Angela Rayner grew up in one of the UK's most deprived council estates. She would go to her gran's house for a bath on weekends because hot water was too expensive at home Now she's Deputy Prime Minister

We are not a serious country, but i can't complain when it produces stuff like this 🤣

A former government chief scientific adviser as science minister. A businessman with years of experience in rehabilitation as prisons minister. A barrister with years of experience as attorney general. A focus on specialism, domain knowledge and expertise.

Honestly kinda confusing to see a ministerial recruitment process which isn't entirely grounded in how much of a cunt someone is.

Useful and timely reality check from ⁦Wes Streeting⁩ gov.uk/government/spe…
