I am really sad to hear that John Prescott has passed away.
John was a huge figure and personality, from his seafaring union days to the highest offices in Government.
I will be forever grateful for his personal and political support in the 2017 and 2019 elections. His endless warmth and iconic wit were loved on the campaign trail.
My deepest sympathies to John’s family at their loss. He will be greatly missed.
You can see why people vote for Farage, same as Johnson.
Bants, craic, lads down the pub " saying it as it is".
Wonderful.
Now fucking count how much they've both cost you in real money versus how much they've saved you.
Turkeys, meet Christmas. Again. July 4th.
🚨THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT FILMS I’VE DONE
OUR EX-MINERS - HEROES who risked their lives every day to keep our homes, our hospitals & schools warm are being LEFT TO DIE IN ABJECT POVERTY whilst the Govt robs them blind - taking at least £4bn out of their pension fund
WE MUST KEEP THE MOMENTUM GOING FOR OUR EX-MINERS
We can’t stand by whilst this Government robs these national heroes blind & leaves them to die in abject poverty
Come on @UKLabour. It’s time to commit to righting this historic injustice

Alan Bates turned down an OBE as Paula Vennells, the woman in charge of the Post Office through the Horizon Scandal, retains her CBE and refuses to give it back.
A man of honour 🙏🏼❤️

Alan, 69: “The first thing that sprang to my mind while reading the letter (offering me an OBE) was Paula Vennells still had a CBE. I felt so deeply insulted. She presided over a policy of harassing hundreds of innocent people. It’s not just that the Government hasn’t asked her to return it. What’s even worse is that despite knowing the strength of feeling about it, how people have suffered and some cases died on her watch – she doesn’t feel inclined to give it back.”
Alan accepted a @PrideOfBritain award in 2023.
We were over the moon to give that to him.
Not all heros wear capes 💜

Rishi Sunak to tell Conservative party conference he’ll fix Britain’s broken politics, but warns it will take time to undo the mismanagement of whoever’s been in charge for the last 13 years.
At conference, Sunak said:
Nobody wants an election
NOBODY
This petition says otherwise
Yes, they'll ignore it
But the more signatures it gets
...the bigger the bell he looks.

Mugged in broad daylight by profiteers.
E.ON have announced profits of £4.9BILLION for the first 6 months of the year.
That's £27,071,823 a day.
£18,800 a minute.
It's an increase of 40% on last year.
Obscene.
