I feel like people discuss London as if
1) regular working class people don’t live here
2) Just because London was a place to spend your 20s, that it isn’t a real home for some of us
Please, please stop campaigning to make it unliveable.
@benhoobs Astonishing because it’s false. While housing delivery is woeful in the capital, that figure is derived from very incomplete data from London’s annual starts and completions exercise which is ongoing for FY 25/26 https://t.co/ILL115CLsh
If you have a spare 3 mins and 45 secs today, watch this fantastic grilling by Sally Nugent on BBC Breakfast.
The very first time I've seen Farage questioned properly about his £5M bung, and it's fair to say, he totally fluffed it.
There are points when you can see Farage tremble and even accuse the BBC of putting him in danger. 🤦♂️
It was for security. It was for cars. Nobody cares. It's no one's business. He won't tell us. DANGER!
At one point, he let slip that the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards may 'disagree' with him on the rules around donations.
He knows he's going to be found guilty on this one. He's in trouble, and his face gave it away gloriously.
Top hats off to Sally Nugent. Stellar work. 👏
The UK prime minister job is a poisoned chalice bc they rely on the boomer vote to get elected but basically everything needed to fix the country requires cutting back on boomer benefits and preferences
BBC: “What was your screen time?”
Student: “Nine hours.”
BBC: “You’re gong to have a lot more time to fill. What will you do?”
Student: “Stare at a wall.”
Complaining about nightlife when you *checks notes* choose to live in Soho is like living in South Kensington and complaining about the museums. Or moving to Hackney and grumbling about creatives. Living in Richmond and hating green space. It's all getting a bit silly, isn't it?
