@MailOnline Time for Mr Alan Bates to be awarded a peerage for his work to expose the Post Office Horizon scandal. He is exactly the type of person the general public need in the second chamber.

@Heccles94 I thought that @bbcquestiontime confirm on a weekly basis that the QT audience is based on the respective parties performance in the latest election? If so, should @Ofcom not be investigating whether migrants actually voted in the last election?
@BBCPolitics care to comment?
BREAKING: GAUNTLET THROWN! Gavin Newsom's top lawyer demands that acting Attorney General Todd Blanche investigate Trump after the Justice Department began probing the governor and his wife.
This is a brilliant countermove...
“Calling this investigation a fishing expedition is actually too generous. If your commitment to rooting out corruption were serious, the enormous resources that you have poured into this investigation looking for a crime that does not exist would be focused elsewhere," legal affairs secretary David Sapp wrote to Blanche.
Not content to leave it at that, Sapp also requested immediate access to “all documents and records including but not limited to memoranda, emails, text messages, and Signal messages” related to the sham investigation into the governor.
He added that Blanche should instead turn his attention to "the open-air corruption market that the White House has become.” The fact that there is a tradition of not prosecuting a sitting president is “no excuse for ignoring open and notorious corruption by his family and those around him.”
“The United States Department of Justice selectively leaked uncorroborated details about ongoing investigative matters involving the Governor and First Partner, so it should not be a problem for you to confirm whether US DOJ has opened any investigations into the instances of apparent public corruption detailed above involving the President and his allies,” concluded Sapp.
On Monday, Newsom revealed that the Justice Department has begun investigating him and his wife in a blatant attempt to waylay his possible presidential run. It represents just the latest instance of Trump weaponizing the DOJ — a once hallowed nonpartisan institution — to go after his political enemies. It's the kind of thing we once believed could only happen in tinpot dictatorships.
"He isn't coming after me because of mean tweets, but because I am considering running for President," Newsom stated. "He hates that I consistently call him out. He is simply the most corrupt President in American history. We have nothing to hide Mr. President, come after me. I am not going anywhere. The country is watching."
Of course, the chances of Blanche actually turning around and investigating his boss are precisely zero. Blanche is a MAGA hatchet man to the core. He'd sooner reduce the DOJ's credibility to ashes than actually do his job on behalf of the American people.
That said, this messaging from Newsom's camp is incredibly important. We can't allow this White House's corruption to become normalized. Just because Trump and his cronies refuse to stop breaking the law doesn't mean we should stop calling it out!
Please ❤️ and share if you'd gladly vote for Gavin Newsom!
Somebody who thinks hes important posted this so I want to ask him who won the Iran war that #47 started in February?

Anyone who still downplays Russia’s attacks is one of two things: wilfully ignorant or complicit. There is no third category. The Kremlin is not ambiguous about its intent. Nor should we be.
Those who bend the knee to Moscow are traitors. https://t.co/Mn4UjC3ZB3
Russia order a sabotage operation against the British PM on UK soil yet Farage and GB News and its commentators are nowhere to be seen.
I thought they were the ultimate patriots?
@RpsAgainstTrump The question that needs to be asked of all MAGAts after the MOU is released is:-
HOW DOES THE CURRENT DEAL COMPARE WITH THE JCPOA DEAL THAT #45 TORE UP IN 2018?
@GBNEWS Why are you not reporting that they had to leave the USA immediately after the match with no recovery time for the players before boarding their flight back to Mexico.
The US AND FIFA are a disgrace. This is supposed to be a sporting event?
@CalvinBailey@DefenceHQ@DanJarvisMBE Congratulations on your elevation to Ministerial status.
Fully deserved after your interview on LBC with James O'Brien on the lessons learnt from the Chilcott Report to educate those who mistakenly supported the UK joining American war with Iran started by Trump in February.
@KevinASchofield So will the @reformparty_uk tax system be based on ethnicity and/or the colour of people's skin?
Is that why they also want to abolish the Equality Act?
@LizMair@StubHub Well @FIFAWorldCup what are YOU going to do to right this wrong, especially since I believe that you are on 15% of the resale ticket prices!
