🚨 Angela Rayner has given councils permission to sell off allotments to raise money. 8 sell offs of ancient rights have happened so far, including to build houses. The history of allotments goes back to the 1500s and is tied deeply to land access, food security, and social

WHAT IS YOUR THEORY? According to reports, even from Fox, after the summit administration officials like Caroline Leavitt and Steve Witkoff, were described with eyes wide open and an ashen complexion. What do you think went wrong? Your thoughts?
