What a wild coincidence that Hester gave £10m to the Tories and then got awarded 100s of millions in NHS contracts.
If donating to the Conservative Party can win you the defence of the entire front bench what else can it buy?
Money in politics has poisoned our democracy
@TheSteed86 Hi Danny, I’ve just dropped you a message on LinkedIn about an event that may be of interest. It’s about venture capital in cyber security so will be slightly more glamorous than the Amory Moot events I used to drag you to!
Starting to get chest pains from socially vaping. Maybe I should start breathing oxygen and not blueberry?
How was I meant to know smoking a battery was bad for me??
All Stormzy has done is say "I still believe in the man that millions of people in this country voted for, and think he was treated unfairly."
But now people are comparing him to Kanye West because it's apparently fine to treat all black men as basically interchangeable.
Can someone explain why this isn't straightforward rampant dishonest behaviour - he promised things to get elected he didn't mean?
You either care about dishonesty in politics, or you only care if it's your opponent who does it, in which case you don't actually care at all!
DON'T FORGET: @SpeakerPelosi spent the months leading up to the annihilation of Roe v Wade campaigning for the anti-abortion Henry Cueller over the passionately pro-choice @JCisnerosTX
Absolutely gutted for my sisters in the states. Abortion bans are an attack on all women, but that disproportionately impact women who are poor, women of colour, and women trapped in abusive relationships.
Abortion bans are barbarism.
The democrats could have stopped this, Obama could have stopped this, Pelosi, Schumer, Biden could have stopped this.
Democrats would rather see women die than lift a finger to legislate. Even when Dems are in gov the Republicans win - bunch of feckless losers

Mick Lynch is so refreshing. He hasn’t been coached by consultants and he doesn’t know the rules of ‘etiquette’ politicians follow. He’s so good at saying things that are obvious to everyone not in media.
When was the last time you saw someone on TV call a politician a liar?
🚨🚨🚨EVERYONE WILL BE TAKEN OFF THE FLIGHT!!
NOONE WILL BE DEPORTED TO RWANDA TONIGHT!!
We have won today, but we will continue the fight tomorrow and against EVERY racist deportation ✊🏾✊🏾🔥🔥
When I was five in Scotland, there was a mass shooting at a Primary school in Dunblane, a gunman killed 16 kids and a teacher. In response the UK govt enacted strict gun control measures. In the 26 years since, there has been ZERO school shootings in the UK. ZERO. #Uvalde
The Republican Party is a death cult, they want violence, they want dead kids
The alternative, are a bunch of cowardly feckless losers in the Democratic Party who won’t lift a finger to stop more massacres
All they will do is fundraiser off this.
#TexasSchoolMassacre
So, let’s get this straight. The “freedom of speech” party wants protesters of Roe decision arrested. Because of their protest of a government decision? Is this how they’re like the “family values” party as they cheered on a president who raw dogged porn stars while married?
The Democratic Party in Congress COULD codify Roe v Wade into law right now.
What they WILL do is pretend they’re going to codify it but not withdraw the filibuster.
Then the democrats will go on TV looking morose and say ‘there was nothing we could do 😢’
In Parliament today, Tory MP Sir Edward Leigh justified deporting refugees to detention camps in Rwanda.
A few hours later, he spoke again, calling on MPs to "show compassion": not with refugees, but with our lying Prime Minister.
What a sick joke.
