“Britain feels pretty broken at the moment. Don't break it even more.” @AndyBurnhamGM and Mick Lynch, leader of @RMTunion, discuss the importance of the #SaveTicketOffices campaign.

I know I've said it before, and I'll keep saying it: I'm convinced that prosecutors will eventually provide undeniable proof that President Trump was absolutely working for Vladimir Putin and Russia to destroy the USA...and that as of the date of this tweet...he STILL was.

2016: Robin Walker, "We will maintain the bathing water standards we had in the past when in the EU" 2023: Surfer William Howells, "I prefer the pain of a heart attack than the 18 hour pain after swimming in raw sewage" The EU forced the UK to clean our waters, low regulation Brexit Britian have given water companies billions in profits and filled our waters with sewage, making us literally 'the sick man of Europe' once again

The government has been accused of “staggering incompetence” after new school buildings it commissioned had to be closed due to safety fears, while others under construction were demolished before they even opened. #ToriesOut412 #GeneralElectionNow theguardian.com/education/2023…

Over 13 years of Tory misrule has ruined our fantastic health service. Strangling the NHS so they can privatise it and make money out of people’s misery. Shameful. #SaveOurNHS #FairPayForNursing #Sunackered #ToriesOut404 #GeneralElectionNow

Just when Sunak probably began to think that things could get no worse Along comes #Partygate the movie - well mini series Re-enactments, spliced with news and interviews Certain this will be out pre-election 🤣🤣 #ToriesOut412 #GeneralElectionNow msn.com/en-gb/entertai…

@LiamJHogan Not only did Rishi Sunak fail to declare his wife's financial interest in a childminding agency, but his super-rich wife Akshata Murty, was also financially benefiting from his policy budget. #r4today bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…

If you work in public service, for instance for a local authority, you are not allowed to accept gifts from the public. Why on earth should MPs be any different? theguardian.com/politics/2023/…

‘I'm just in despair.' This dad says he is left with 3% of disposable income a month after rent and childcare, questioning if he is to blame. @mrjamesob brands his situation an example of the 'great Conservative betrayal'.

Par for the Brexit course?

Devastating impact of Brexit on the music sector‼️ Almost half of UK musicians and workers in the music industry have had less work in the EU since Brexit than before it, and more than a quarter have had no EU work at all, according to a survey. theguardian.com/politics/2023/…

Brexit: “Now, people don’t think London is the European financial services centre. It could be Dublin, it could be Paris, it could be Amsterdam.” Brexit wrecks another UK industry. Brexit has failed. #Rejoin

Rishi Sunak, "I voted for Brexit. I believe in Brexit. Brexit is delivering" Ruth Rogers, @RiverCafeLondon "Don't blame the virus blame Brexit. Brexit is a disaster (for hospitality)"

Tory sleaze and corruption. Rishi Sunak brought a private healthcare lobbyist into Downing Street and has now handed his former clients a plum NHS contract. Contract should be publicly available. Privatisation and looting are the order of the day. theguardian.com/society/2023/a…

During this time Thames Water paid out £7.3bn in profit as well as nearly £2bn in wages to management. It is expected to increase customers bills by £80 each to provide the extra £1bn a year it needs to cover its £14.7bn debt. Privatisation is one huge scam.

Every nation and region of the UK now thinks Brexit was “wrong” - latest polling shows. Britain was “wrong to leave”: England: 62% Scotland: 73% Wales: 69% North: 63% Midlands: 55% London: 74% Rest of South: 62% Total UK: 64% Source: YouGov More on the latest polling:

Brilliant summary of the finances of the polluting water industry in England narrated by ex-BBC star @gavinesler Handed debt free companies by the Government in 1989 the private owners racked up £60bn debt and paid £57bn dividends and now let sewage flow into rivers and beaches

“If Rishi Sunak’s kids turned around and said ‘I’m not going to university’, he’d say ‘you bloody well are’… too often politicians are talking about other people’s kids and I don't like it.” Listen on @GlobalPlayer @jonsopel | @lewis_goodall | @JoJohnsonUK
