When Liz Truss rejects a windfall tax on the £170,000,000,000 profits oil and gas giants are expected to make, it's worth remembering: She's a former Shell employee whose party has taken more than £1,500,000 in donations from the oil and gas industry since the last election.

A bit of rain didn't stop the Felixstowe Swimscapes from taking a Sunday dip in support of the Mayor's chosen charities.🏊 Those floats brightened up a gloomy morning.🌊

Cynical foul prevents 1-on-1 with keeper clear scoring opportunity but only gets free-kick, with 11 defenders in front of goal. Fairer alternatives: red card; penalty goal; allow clear shot at goal from free-kick #FIFAWorldCup #japanvscostarica

I believe the weeds on our roads are getting out of hand - very unsightly, causing obstruction, damage & falls. I call on Suffolk CC to take this issue more seriously and help bring pride of place back to our streets. Use link to report and prompt action: highwaysreporting.suffolk.gov.uk
