Rishi Sunak has quietly slipped out new rules raising the amount individuals can secretly donate to political parties by 50%. Party campaign spending limits have also been raised. Meanwhile the cap on trade union spending during elections has been frozen. bylinetimes.com/2023/07/25/mor…





John Crace It's such a tedious response from the PM: Why do you take private aircraft to places that are about 1-2 hours away by train? Sunak: Oh, you're saying we should BAN all planes and STOP hard-working people from EVER going on holiday?? Shame on you! No, no that is not what I said.

This is shocking. Patients who face long NHS waiting lists & cannot afford to go private are being encouraged to sign up for “buy now, pay later” deals & other personal loans to cover the costs of basic healthcare. How did we allow it to come to this? theguardian.com/society/2023/a…



Chris Bryant, "Parliament is in trouble.. Nearly every day there is a scandal.. I care passionately about democracy.. I just don't think in an ordinary line of work if you miss coming in for over 6 months, like Nadine Dorries, that you'd still be paid." Chris Bryant

2014 Nadine Dorries needs to have a word with 2023 Nadine Dorries. Here she is, arguing that constituents should have "more democratic control" over recalling their MP, saying "where MPs fall down is when they ignore their constituents". Would be terrible if this went viral. ~AA
