I hope my MP @StephenMorganMP will call on the government to take action and #CancelTheCliffEdge end of the Stamp Duty Land Tax holiday. The cliff edge could see thousands lose out on their dream home https://t.co/T6u6ADOZfR

@Hermesparcels why is it impossible to get hold of anyone at hermes to make a complaint? Your driver persistently dumps packages without ringing the doorbell. It's lockdown! We're home! We live on a main road, I don't want my parcels on the doorstep thanks

Just managed to ruin my anniversary by letting slip I was under the care of the local mental hospital after having my youngest daughter. It appears I managed to keep that secret from my husband all these years without realising it. I had no idea. #postnataldepression #mentahealth

BREAKING: fantastic news from @CIWF_CZ, today Czech MPs voted to ban cages for hens! 🙌🙌

This monumental development will improve the lives of more than 4.5 million hens, and sends a clear message to other countries - it's time to #EndTheCageAge.

@nuttyxander I come out in a cold sweat thinking about my kids cycling on the roads in Portsmouth. I've had too many terrifying near misses myself as an experienced adult cyclist to feel comfortable

The government’s U-turn against implementing the recommendations of phase one of the Grenfell inquiry is truly shameful.

72 people lost their lives because of that fire. The government must take every single necessary action to prevent it from happening again.
