A very special day. Abbey Johnson and I delivered a letter from @pinkladies_uk to @ShabanaMahmood and @Keir_Starmer demanding answers on how this government plan to deal with the Rape Epidemic that is sweeping this country. What a brave and courageous girl she is 🩷 ( please excuse my clothes but we had been protesting all day )

@VoWalesWren @Phil_Osophi and @UKLabour MPs and Peers .. Supported this appalling reversal of the legislation which stopped it happening ! Shame on them all …

Chips fried in beef dripping were a different object to what passes for a chip today. Walk into a Whitby chippy in 1978. The fryer has been on since 11am. The fat in it is beef dripping, held at 180 degrees by a man in a white apron who has been frying chips since he was fifteen. There are no seed oils in the building. The idea would not occur to anyone. Thick-cut Maris Pipers, ninety seconds in the dripping. Dark gold at the edges, fluffy inside, crisp in a way that sets your teeth against them. Salt. Vinegar. Paper. Two bob. You eat them walking home along the harbour wall. The chip tastes of the chip and also of something underneath the chip, something deeper, something you don't have a name for because you are nine and nobody names it, it is just what chips taste like. That taste was beef dripping. By 2002, 90% of British chippies had switched to rapeseed, palm, or sunflower oil, on the advice of public health officials citing research since quietly retracted. A stable saturated fat used for ten thousand years, swapped for an industrial oil invented in 1911, oxidised at fryer temperatures for twelve hours a day. A seed-oil chip is lighter, flatter. The crust doesn't hold. The flavour stops at the potato. No deeper note. No roast beef on a Friday. Ask a British person under thirty what chips are supposed to taste like and they will describe, with complete sincerity, the chip they have always eaten. A chip their great-grandfather would have considered a practical joke. They cannot miss it, because the reference point was removed from the national palate before they were born. A handful of chippies still fry in dripping. The Magpie in Whitby. A few survivors in Yorkshire, Lancashire, the Black Country. Go. Drive. Queue. Eat them standing up, out of the paper. You will understand, in one bite, what was taken. The cow is still in the field. The suet is still at the butcher. The fryer could be switched back tomorrow. A whole country forgot what a chip was.

It’s now OFFICIAL. Shocking More than 150 individuals with convictions for violent or sexual offences have been granted PHV and taxi licences by Wolverhampton City Council. For years, people raising concerns were dismissed or attacked. Today’s figures speak for themselves.

@ThatAlexWoman your anger and disgust at what our politicians have inflicted on women is shared by millions. Every single word 👏🏻

Starmer, Hermer & co know their time is up but are trying to inflict one last wound on the British and Chagossian people. Shameful.

Shakespeare mind cloud created by Allysa Gray.

Happy Saint George's Day from the English Ubermensch. @tonyhusband1

@KemiBadenoch Hermer truly is a vile specimen. The absolute opposite of a decent man. Starmer appears to adore the worst of us as he is one of the worst. Both absolute filthy scumbags.

Why the hell is the Chagos Betrayal still going on?

Do these guys work for you? @Deliveroo

We were allowed access to film inside the BELGIAN equivalent of a UK MIGRANT HOTEL! 😮 We risk everything so you don’t have to.. This is not to be missed! This is journalism, DONE PROPERLY! 👌🏼

When Britain was great and shipbuilding was the backbone of communities across the country including Wallsend.

It’s all unravelling for these bastards…

I wish they showed me stuff like this in school.

"Imposing VAT on private schools has cost the Scottish economy £60m & 900 jobs." "It is expected that the VAT collected will be less than the fiscal impact…giving a net loss of £16m, to rise to £181m by 2037-38." Who could have seen this coming? 🙋🏼‍♂️ thetimes.com/uk/scotland/ar…

Here is my (very) rough design for the Elizabeth Memorial As The Queen was our longest-serving monarch, HLM's memorial should rival the Victoria Memorial in the Mall and the Albert Memorial in Kensington Gardens The official Elizabeth Memorial does not rise to the occasion The Victorians & Edwardians knew how to stir British hearts with grand and triumphant memorials. Alas, none of that spirit seems to remain in those tasked with such projects today. A depressing lack of ambition. I chose an arch so that the Elizabeth Memorial would be visually distinct from the Albert and Victoria memorials. No, it was not inspired by Trump's Arch! lol George IV was supposed to sit atop Marble Arch. London's magnificent Wellington Arch is topped by the largest bronze sculpture in Europe. It was built in 1912. Over 100 years later, surely we can build something equally grand - or even grander. [Note: Second line on the arch should read "Head of the Commonwealth"]

Sir, Olly Robbins has dropped you so far in the shit, we're going to need Lord Alli to buy you a snorkle.
