Take it in. The first female chancellor. The first housing secretary who's actually lived in social housing. The first education secretary who was on free school meals. An energy secretary who actually believes in aggressively fighting climate change. Not a bad afternoon.

Lies spread on here by accounts that in many cases are clearly fake and/or foreign-based have now triggered a race riot in Southport. This is psychological warfare aimed at dividing and destabilising our society. For our own sake, something must be done about this poisonous site.
