BBC news back in 2018. Tool theft is still a major issue. Make breaking into a commercial vehicle a specific offence would help the police with the burden of proof when the tools are not recoverable imo. #tooltheft

Working class people do not need more chaos from the likes of Farage and Badenoch. We need decent pay, secure housing, rights at work and public services that function. That’s why I’m Labour. And I’m far from the only one.

Shat on by the politicians of the time. Shat on by the Press. Shat on by the majority of the public opinion. Broke the back of the Unions. Still paying. Heart breaking times.

@LoyalRoyalDaz @ReadingCouncil Some scumbags nicked a bench from a resident's garden last year

We’ve been working on maintaining roads resurfaced in the last five years by applying a preservation treatment to them to keep them in good condition for longer. It is a cost-effective, quick and convenient treatment which we’ll be using going forwards to ensure we keep more roads in better condition for longer.

I recently joined 115 fellow parliamentarians in backing transport industry calls for better roadside facilities for lorry drivers – to improve welfare and help tackle freight crime. Truck drivers keep our shops stocked, our hospitals supplied and our businesses running. In North Durham, more than 2000 people work in transport and logistics. They deserve safe, secure places to rest and access to decent roadside facilities when they stop, and I am proud to be an ally of the RHA and truck drivers across North Durham.

Caller David is not happy with Sadiq Khan for failing to learn the words to Christmas carols. @BenKentish asks if he knows some of the words himself...

This Labour Government has lifted the two child limit because every child the best start in life.

They try to pretend that nobody cares Whether you walk on the lines or squares. But only the sillies believe their talk; It’s ever so portant how you walk. And it’s ever so jolly to call out, “Bears, Just watch me walking in all the squares!” ~A.A.Milne

That's in Whitley ward. Lasted well 👍

Remembering Terry Hall on his birthday. #2ToneDublin 🖤🏁

I praised the approach Reading Borough Council has taken by resurfacing large sections of road at a time. This has improved our highways in contrast to other councils with awful road surfaces.
