Baroness Owen & Lord Kempsell who have less than a decade work experience between them but who now have jobs for life making laws because Boris Johnson said so, have made the case for abolition of the House of Lords clearer than I could
Here's a thing to remember if you ever feel mildly disheartened by the overwhelming presence of national media supporting this Tory govt.
Don't be overwhelmed.
Don't think it isn't going to change.
It's already changing in spite of them.
The local election results...Tories lost 1063 seats and many councils.
Tories drubbed in the by-elections this week. In spite of the ULEZ local issue In Uxbridge the overall swing away from Tories in all 3 seats was 21%.
I have a saying
"you know what you know".
So, in spite of the propaganda put out continually, WE know what WE know.....and we stick together like glue.
We also know that social media can, and does, effect the national platform.
I don't support any political party. Yours and my detailed politics may vary slightly on individual issues BUT we have enough in common to pull together to stop the corruption and cruelty enjoyed by this government.
Here's to smiling because of what's happening...and what we're helping to happen along the way 👍🏼😃
Thumbs up

Norway took a massive step back when proposing to open its waters to deep-sea mining. We are calling on @jonasgahrstore, @terjeaa, and @EspenBarthEide to reconsider this decision and protect our ocean! Sign the petition now! #DefendTheDeep@onlyone https://t.co/2UCFt2HYjI
My sister was assaulted on her way home yesterday around NW on the Jubilee Line. He tried to intimidate her and when she started filming him for proof, he then attacked her. She's reported this to the police but if you recognise him please let me know.
The decision to pull Clive Myrie from News At Ten because he'd been hilarious on Have I Got News For You? earlier the same evening is important. It shows how successfully vicious right-wing papers have cowed BBC executives in to making decisions based on fear of being attacked.
