It has been 19 months since Michelle Mone was ordered to pay back £232,000,000, she hasn't paid back a penny, and is still a Lord despite not appearing in 2 years.

It is time for her to pay, and for her Lordship to be rescinded.

[Mark Stacey @VintiquesMark]

this should be fully investigated along with the previous regime and sunak, johnson, cummings, gove, etc

Conservative MP Brandon Lewis earns £250,000 working one day a week for two sanctioned Russians, he has 6 other 'second' jobs as well.

Is there any other explanation for this than corruption?

Nigel Farage who attempted 8 times to become an MP, misses the UK's state opening of parliament today

Instead of representing his constituency of Clacton, he's flown half way around the world to attend the Republican convention and grift for Donald Trump

He serves only himself

Liz Truss - awarded a six-figure prime ministerial pension at the age of 46 for just 49 days' work - wants to raise the pension age to 80. For other people, that is.

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

Just posting this because I agree with Republicans who NOW condemn political violence.

Because they definitely haven't been calling for a "bloodbath" if trump loses, putting a bound and gagged Biden on their pickup trucks, or for civil wars, right?

This pic will haunt you, @narendramodi, for the rest of your life.
Hugging a scumbag with hundreds of thousands of deaths to his credit & a criminal wanted by 124 police forces as if it were nothing says a lot about you.
And to do it on the day he targets a children's hospital...

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

Michelle Mone can be expelled from the House of Lords by a simple majority vote in the Commons, and then in the House of Lords.

Like if she needs to go.
RT if she has to go.

[Simon Redmore @SimonRedmore55]

As always spot on from @Dannythefink in today’s @thetimes he should be required reading across the land. It isn’t the electorate that’s volatile it has been our two main parties; vacate the centre and you lose (Brexit being the exception)

Michael Gove scrapped the £56bn school building project in 2010 that was set to replace every single RAAC school in the UK.

He then replaced it with nothing.

Fast forward 13 years and they are all falling down.

Whose fault is it?

[Jay Rayner @jayrayner1]

Apparently over 80,000 people had registered to vote by 10am which is a bit of a record. Let's keep breaking records. You can only vote for the party you support if you register. Pls RT. RT like the wind.

[Matthias Mueller💙 🇩🇪🇬🇧🇪🇺 @MatthiasMuell15]

They did this while we tried to save the dying.

Never forgive, never forget.

Sunak was chancellor at the time. He authorized this.

Himself.

Let that one sink
In.

This is just the tipp of a massive iceberg of corruption which will
Cost a generation - your children’s future - do be paid back. That money is missing from your parents and your own Health Care.

Sunak did this during the UK’s largest Public Health Emergency in a Century.

Sunak and all those Tories had nothing better to do to figure out how they can abuse the system and the state assets while no-one’s got time for looking what they’re doing because we cared for our dying.

And they have defended this behaviour and covered it up ever since.

THAT , my friends, is who the Tories are.
And who Sunak is.

And horrible Gove, Johnson, Hancock, Patel. They all think we NHS Staff have forgotten this - haha - THAT is laughable too.

Still fills
Me with anger every day.

Vote these Con-Artists, Fraudster-Ex-Bankers and deadly Clowns out of office.

04 July cannot come
Soon
Enough.

"Why one of Britain’s wealthiest villages has netted a £300k taxpayer-funded levelling-up grant"

Hmm. The area is the 313th least deprived out of 317 in England.

What could possibly have won it the grant in Jeremy Hunt's constituency?

Depressing debate last night. No openness about tax and spend. Big direct tax rises are nailed in over next 3 years whoever wins, as allowances and thresholds are frozen. Avoiding big spending cuts while keeping to promises on debt will require more tax rises.

[Paul Johnson @PJTheEconomist]

Remarkable fact:

Average teacher pay is about the same today in real terms as it was in 2001.

Average pay across the economy is about 18% higher than in 2001.
