Hunt "Last week inflation fell to 4.6%, we promised to halve it and we did"
Translation "Prices are still RISING, just not as quickly before, though still at over double the rate we set the Bank of England."

15 minute cities are my favourite conspiracy theory at the moment because basically it's like "What if things were convenient" and then a bunch of brainwormed weridos who get all their news from facebook comments sections are like "SHUT UP"
The number of current and former Tory MPs convicted of sex offences in this parliament alone is greater than the number of people convicted of voter ID fraud since 2010
Germany. What happens when it’s a family with 3 year old kids who get caught in this? Or an OAP? The public have no clue of of what is about to happen to us. Society has failed on a scale that is unfathomable https://t.co/7sehMkF9wk
Congratulations to British Gas who made record profits of £969,000,000 in six months.
That’s almost *ten times* more than last year, while millions are struggling to pay the bills.
We must end this daylight robbery and bring energy into public hands, now.
Have you ever wondered why some cities are just so much nicer than others?
Well, it's probably because they have good "Third Places."
What is a Third Place? It's wherever you go when you're not at home or at work...
I've now had a chance to read all 40 pages of the Coutts dossier on Farage and it's 9 pages of internal risk assessment discussion (1-4, 8-12) 29 pages of evidence (5-7, 13-38) referred to in the risk assessment pages, 1 page of decision (39) and 1 page of glossary (40).

We’re going to spend decades negotiating to help tackle the impact of Brexit on everything from the music industry and the City of London to car manufacturing and tourism. Instead, why can’t politicians explain to voters why it’s in the U.K’s interest to be inside the single market and customs union. There is no country in Western Europe that isn’t in some combination of these, or is applying to join. How are we the only one whose national interest is to be entirely separate from the continent’s market structures? I honestly think politicians underestimate the intelligence of voters. Nobody has really bothered to explain to people what the single market and customs union actually do.
The really unjust thing about tuition fees isn't the fees themselves but a) the interest rate that makes paying it off virtually impossible, meaning it's essentially a tax and b) the subsequent refusal to admit it's a tax, giving grads a higher marginal tax rate than billionaires
Regardless of your ‘stance’ on this God awful trial and all the horrible takes it’s inspired on social media over the last couple of weeks, survivors of abuse NEED to know that they will be believed ♥️
