Liz Truss lost three, including chancellor and Home Secretary, in six weeks.
Rishi Sunak lost four in his first seven months, including his party chairman and deputy PM.

Whatever you think of Starmer and this govt. The notion that they’re the worst in history is amazing. We’ve JUST got rid of the most astonishing band of crooks, fraudsters and treasonous sociopaths.

The UK, US & Israel were the last to end support for South Africa’s apartheid regime.
Conservatives wore 'Hang Mandela' badges, Thatcher denounced him & the ANC as terrorists & vetoed a UN resolution to impose sanctions.

If UK news shows are going to give Boris Johnson a platform to spout his absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it
We cannot allow those once in power to rewrite history.
