🚨 An undercover sting exposed alarming loopholes in Westminster’s weak lobbying system: a fake Chinese company bought meetings with ministers and MPs, and it may not have even broken any rules! ✍️ Sign & share: https://t.co/DaI8I3G93A via @38degrees
@iainmacwhirter@OctopusEnergy My smart meter is faulty and my bills are at least twice what they should be
I have been trying for 2 years to have octopus energy it checked. Even my MP has not been able to get anything done. Terrible customer service
Gas flaring is a methane 💣 heating up our world and it's making people sick with toxic fumes linked to cancer. A grieving father is seeking justice for his son's death, demanding @bp_plc#StopGasFlaring worldwide. Join him here https://t.co/sqcG7CbKVV
Why are the Britfash establishment so scared of Scottish independence? Absolutely keechin their breeks. Why? Why do the editors of anti-Scots media like this, have such a grudge against our country? I’m still waiting to hear a sane reason, but we get zilch, just toxic negativity.
@sonofr Nothing will happen, this has been common knowledge for at least 5 years now. The only thing that's happened is that those involved have increased their net worth many times over.

The Lords voted NO to part of the Public Order Bill, Tory gov will override that, using for the 1st time "Henry VIII" powers to reverse the express will of Parliament.

BREAKING
Fraud report
Special mentions to

VIP recommended by ministers - received £6 BILLION of £7.9 BILLION of testing contracts....
Be angry? I'm livid....
Quote from report
"Between March 2020 to December 2021, Government awarded 22 contracts to Randox (or its strategic partner Qnostics Ltd) for its testing services, worth a maximum total value of £776.9 million. The Committee’s inquiry into these contracts found numerous issues with the first contract – failures in basic record-keeping; gaps in conflict-of-interest declarations; and wider procurement issues, such as a lack of senior scrutiny and sign-off. The DHSC also marked supplier offers as ‘VIP’ if they had been referred from ministers, MPs, or Number 10. These priority suppliers received £6 billion of the £7.9 billion of testing contracts awarded between May 2020 to March 2021.27 .The PAC has been asked by Parliament to examine the papers relating to government contracts for the supply of PPE by PPE Medpro which secured two contracts worth a combined value of over £200 million and is now the subject of an investigation by the National Crime Agency into potential fraud."

🏴 We’ve also introduced a fairer income tax system - with the majority of taxpayers in Scotland paying less income tax than they would elsewhere in the UK.
💷 And we've kept council tax the cheapest in the UK - while investing in stronger public services. #FMQs
Instead of insulating homes and lowering bills the government is in chaos. @10DowningStreet must deliver a proper windfall tax immediately to provide support and keep people warm this winter. #ChaosCostsLives
