Bloody hell. Maybe weapons grade tax avoider Lord Ashcroft should spend less money on researchers/ghostwriters for the bollocks he 'writes' about Angela Rayner 🌹 & more on professional copy checkers/lawyers for the books he 'publishes' by clowns like Truss.

Labour leader Keir Starmer calls for police to launch investigation into Mark Menzies affair 👇

'There are obviously a lot of unanswered questions in relation to these allegations, not least why it seems the Tory party took so long to act & whether they’ve reported this to the…

'Thames Water customers shouldn’t pay for its mistakes, says Jeremy Hunt.'

Nor should Southern Water's customers, nor Anglian Water's customers, nor Yorkshire Water 💧's customers, nor Affinity Water 🦆's customers, nor Severn Trent's customers, and on, and on...

It’s sad that Hugh Grant v Rupert Murdoch won’t go to court, but good can come of it theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

‘Known to have used male prostitutes’ is Mark Menzies’ entry in the whips’ spreadsheet (which could use an update). No risk of kompromat there then! Now they’ve started tying him up & demanding a ransom for his release. Can’t make this shit up 😂😂😂

Positive news, but why limit this to 18 - 30 year olds?

A return to real free movement for all, which was always conditional, would also open up the EU single market & end some of the Tory Brexit bureaucracy !

Grant Shapps, whose party has spent weeks suggesting Angela Rayner is a tax-dodging criminal, now says we shouldn't rush to judgement about suspended Conservative MP Mark Menzies

'Just because an accusation is made, or something is written, doesn't mean it is necessarily proven'

BBC reporting that Mark Menzies has lost the Tory whip.

CCHQ has known for months and lo and behold, once the press finds out, action happens!

That and the laughable James Daly farce with Angela Rayner

Richard Holden MP is an even worse Chair of Tory party than Greg Hands....heck

It's called the Ames Room, and it was invented by American ophthalmologist Adelbert Ames, Jr. in 1946 to screw with your brain.

Hey James Daly MP,

You seen this?

I’m sure the police can expect your letter imminently.

Why have there been no prosecutions over Covid profiteering and corruption?

By blocking the disgraceful Rwanda Bill, the Lords speak for the people. Even Rishi Sunak seems wary of getting this affront to law and human rights on to the statute books. Not only will he face legal challenges and outrage. It will not ‘stop the boats’ or even slow them down

Liz Truss claims in her book that she wants a “free market” energy system involving more fossil fuel extraction.

Except… oil and gas companies receive billions more subsidies than renewable firms.
