Just spoke outside the court, where the #WholeTruthFive today received the most shocking of sentences from a truly shocking judge. Climate denial has infected our legal system.

Thank you to the Prime Minister @Keir_Starmer for recognising the hard work of myself & other campaigners pushing for change. Great to see our calls taken forward on compelling offenders to attend sentencing, safeguarding children of sex offenders and fast-tracking rape cases.

Loved doing it so much, the people behind the scenes work incredibly hard & being with Ruth and Beth for an hour a week was like therapy. Feel grateful to Sky & Beth that they thought it was important for relatable women to talk politics. Also important to have them governing.

Doing Electoral Dysfunction with the inimitable @jessphillips has been a blast. But she’s now got a massive job to do, delivering govt pledge to halve violence against women & girls Sad for me & Ruth cos we don’t get to hang out with Jess weekly, but happy for her & womankind 🙅🏻♀️

Thames Water failed to invest £1.1bn pounds of your money on sewage works upgrades.
Where is that money, what happened it, where's it gone? Is it part of the £1.8bn cash they claim they have in the bank?
Does @Ofwat have an answer? Not bloody likely.

"We are firm in our commitment to ensuring that the customer should not pay twice for a company's shortfall," said @Ofwat's CEO before then announcing an inflation busting 37%* increase in @YorkshireWater customers' bills.
*in real terms, inflation at 2%.

Our press release. Polluters should pay for sewage in our rivers. We have already paid. Regulate so water companies operate legally. @Ofwat

Can we once and for all dispense with this tedious "But he always took the bins out and said hello" commentary, as if there was a contradiction here that needed explaining. Violent men ARE "nice guys". They're nice to everyone but the women they abuse. That's the whole point.

Update. By lunchtime today we now have a list of 75 'hyper-shy' or paper candidates who have no public profile and did not turn up to the hustings or count.
Byline Times@BylineTimes
Now Mark Matlock has been verified (with quite an amazing recovery from the pneumonia that kept him away from the count) we have at least 30 other Reform candidates who have not been identified or have other potential issues with their declaration. votewatch24@bylinetimes.com

Lovely unscripted moment this morning in the Welsh Parliament as a brilliant young choir from Ysgol Treganna in Cardiff - singing Safwn yn y Bwlch in rehearsal - bump into the Prime Minister (watch their reaction at the end 🎶)

'Seeing as I'm sat here in my pyjamas, it seems unlikely I'll be in the cabinet.'
Jess Phillips says she probably won't be appointed to a prominent position, but tells @lewis_goodall that she's 'best placed where she can be the loudest'.

TW: Labour candidate Jovan Owusu-Nepaul says Reform UK supporters ‘spat at him’, tore up his leaflets & ‘interrogated’ where he was ‘really from’ during his campaign in Clacton, Essex, which left him fearing for the safety of those around him. theguardian.com/politics/artic…

StopTheTories.Vote tactically if it helps vote out the worst government in history and remind them that if they inflict the likes of Johnson and Truss and Sunak on the country they deserve to pay a price. Time for a Superdefeat. They have earned it. stopthetories.vote

As an actor you can’t help but admire the breath control of @JonathanPieNews almost as much as what he’s saying:

I do hope that the good people of North East Somerset send this spineless poseur packing today. He has only ever sown rancid seeds into our national conversation and they always bear the crappest and rankest of fruit.

Proper journalism. And evidence of just how easy it is to corrupt our politics. The fact @UKLabour alone pushed back on accepting illegal donations a good sign. And a further reason the Tories deserve a superdefeat tomorrow
The Bureau of Investigative Journalism@TBIJ
We went undercover and arranged a series of payments to each of the six major UK parties to test how easy it is for a foreign donor to make illegal political contributions Labour was the only party to correctly identify and block the money thebureauinvestigates.com/stories/2024-0…

Rather massive round of applause to everyone at @GoodLawProject. Their intervention proved to be pivotal in providing yet again that WCs are liable and they simply cannot dump sewage no matter what they say or think. 👏👏👏
And the @EnvAgency did what exactly?
Good Law Project@GoodLawProject
“This is a sensational victory – it gives us stronger legal tools to turn the tide on the sewage scandal and hold water companies to account” Our head of legal, Jennine, was at the Supreme Court today for today’s landmark judgment. goodlaw.social/42st

Reform UK is a fascist party!
I paid for a ticket, was silent in the queue, and when I reached the front, despite showing my press pass, they kicked me out.
Journalists who criticise Nigel Farage and Richard Tice, get dragged from buildings or sued.
They HATE free speech!
