A reminder that Daniel Sloss had a bit about sexual assault in one of his stand ups and how he wished he’d done something to stop his friend being raped. It’s powerful to see him come forward and stick to his word. #Dispatches
Hey men friendly reminder, pretty much every woman you know has been sexually harassed at the very least. More than you realise have been assaulted or raped. Most will have never mentioned this to anyone. They will see your words and your reactions tonight. #Dispatches
@michaelgove You lot already destroyed our chances of homeownership. Destroying the environment to build houses that no one will be able to afford anyway....moron.
Robert Jenrick pushing this #ToryFascistDictatorship to the next level😏
Threatening LIFE IN PRISON to lawyers who help refugees which the government deem to be illegals
Somethings gone badly wrong in this country.

BREAKING
At least 13 schools with RAAC had building work scrapped by the Tories in 2010.
They'd been approved for rebuilding under Labour, which was then scrapped by the Conservative-led government after it came to power.
Resignations must follow 😡 https://t.co/dfI4WaoQag
NEWS
Gillian Keegan's department gave £1m from the schools' rebuilding budget in May to a firm where her husband Michael is a non-executive director...@DailyMirror
Dept says no conflict of interest..
Should Keegan just resign now?
Shambolic
We made case 300-400 schools needed rebuilt a year
Govt decided only money for 100 a year
We made argument for 200 a year
The Chancellor said no. He cut it to 50 a year
The Chancellor? -Rishi Sunak
-Jonathan Slater ex Perm Sec Education

A scandal in slow motion
To those commenting that filming her remarks post interview is underhand… She’s a public figure with public responsibilities. The moment you assume public office with all its responsibilities and accompanying privileges, you are accountable for your behaviour where it is in the public interest. This is in the public interest because it speaks to who she is as a representative of voters. She is not talking about her private life. She is talking about her job as UK Secretary of State for education… responsible for children’s intellectual development. So I don’t care she was off camera. We all have a right to see who she really is here…
Michael Gove scrapped the £56bn school building project in 2010 that was set to replace every single RAAC school in the UK.
He then replaced it with nothing.
Fast forward 13 years and they are all falling down.
Whose fault is it?
I see Iain Duncan Smith is banging on in the Daily Mail, loved this quote:
“…they are facing an imposition that no-one wants and they have been lied to about it.”
As one of the cheerleaders in Chief for the disaster imposed upon us through an avalanche of lies, denial and right wing media bias - I’m referring to Brexit - it’s more than a little ironic.
Clean air is a right @MPIainDS, not a privilege and the ULEZ is an entirely proportionate step to restoring that. Car pollution kills 4k people in London every year and 40k in the country - these are government stats.
Oh and there’s this gem of a quote too… given the Tories attitude to climate protesters, like Just Stop Oil….
“The actions you are seeing show how angry people are at what is being imposed on them…”
Quite right, drilling in the North Sea will kill people, the science behind that is clear - but it’s being forced upon us by a government with no mandate led by a PM with no clue.

'Tufton Street' is a collective description of secretly-funded, hard right lobby groups masquerading as 'think tanks'. Qualification for inclusion is not the address but the 'free market' fetishism & dark money. Anyone professing not to understand this is probably on the payroll.
