Bait & switch on Assisted Dying. 1: get it through the Commons by saying don’t worry about the details, the Lords will scrutinise it; and 2: shrill protests that Lords are “holding it up,” causing a “constitutional crisis” when they give the scrutiny you promised.

It’s the apex of tedious Well Akhtually midwittery to assert that a Greek living in Asia Minor in the 3rd century belonged to a national identity invented in 1967.

Eye Spy MP@eyespymp·17h

Was at Queens Hospital this afternoon, saw Wes Streeting recording a video on the site. Recording party political material using public resources is against the ministerial code. He'll probably claim it was ministerial communications, didn't sound like it.

You can literally watch the colour leave Dave’s face, as he realises he’s eventually going to have to answer how its simultaneously possible to nod along, pretending to understand & yet still insist that women can have a penis…

Most people don’t realise where the £180 million actually went at the A303 Stonehenge tunnel project. It wasn’t construction. It was years of: • Environmental impact assessments • Heritage & archaeological studies • Legal challenges and consultations • Design, engineering and traffic modelling • Public inquiries and revisions All before a single shovel hit the ground. This is the real problem in Britain: We don’t just waste money, we build systems that guarantee it. £180 million to build nothing.

Ben Graham@BenGrahamUK

The A303 Stonehenge tunnel has been scrapped after years of planning. £180 million. Gone. Not a single mile built. Not a single benefit delivered. Just taxpayer money burned. Who is actually held accountable for this?

We’re delighted to award a grant to Greater Anglia for their works to the exterior of the beautiful flint original station building (1845) at Thetford Station (Grade II Listed). It just now needs a future sustainable use. Please share with interested parties.

If you want to inherit a seat, you'll have to do it the old fashioned way and run as a Labour MP.

Cabinet Office@cabinetofficeuk

This is the biggest reform to our Parliament in a generation. 🇬🇧 This morning, the 700-year-old system of hereditary membership in the House of Lords was abolished. Membership is now earned through public service and merit, not granted by an inheritance. ✅

The Government will collect £331bn in income tax this year, and spend £333bn on welfare. In other words, we now spend more on people not working than we raise from those who do. And the cost? Debt per person has risen from £11.5k in 2000 (inflation adjusted) to over £41k today.
