British people are tired of footing the bill for Benefits Street. Tired of seeing welfare claimants living lives of luxury at their expense.
Strengthening the Benefit Cap would end golden tickets to unlimited welfare and save £1bn. Why won't the Minister do it?
Among the most poignant memorials in the Abbey is the Grave of the Unknown Warrior.
On #ArmedForcesDay, discover the Warrior's remarkable story and how, in 1920, his body was brought from the battlefields of northern France to be buried among the kings: https://t.co/49qC4S8ofR
The end of an era - After almost a century we said goodbye this morning to our great companion of the airwaves Radio 4 198 LW. I shall miss her warmth and crackle. Here’s the final sign off at the end of #theshippingforecast before she fell silent… ❤️
Took me just 8 days to get rid of him, by mutual agreement, as my Comms Manager for doing TV interviews on GB News as a 'security advisor', rather than, you know, setting up media for the MP he worked for...But the Labour Party knew that.
“What @bphillipsonMP has done is displace 40,000 children…find places elsewhere either because their school has closed or they don’t have the money to pay VAT. The reason why those taxes were put in place was to fund 6.5k more teachers. We have 2k fewer teachers”.
@KemiBadenoch
There is something about the delight that Bridget Phillipson takes in this cruel & unnecessary policy that is particularly sinister. Only 2 other countries in the whole world tax education, God I hope Andy Burnham gets shot of her.
@clarescastle@TimesRadio Even those who have no time for Starmer / Reeves will feel pretty sickened by this. Just look at Thomas-Symonds, Reed, Reeves (younger) and the ever malleable Eagles in particular. It makes you hope someone will challenge him out of principle.
I don’t think they’ve considered, for a second, how disconnected from the electorate this little tableaux is - complete with the Chancellor in shot, vying for a job no doubt.
It’s also, classless, only a few hours after their leader and PM fell on his sword.
This won’t end well.
Just so you know who this man is, @ZackPolanski believes that someone smashing a sledgehammer into a police woman's back is legitimate and justifiable "direct action".
When people tell you who they are, believe them.
They’ve gone completely mad.
Labour want to ban you from putting in a gas fireplace or a heated towel rail.
It’s Miliband’s insane energy policy that’s pushing up energy prices. He should pay the price, not ordinary Britons.
So the ministers who haven’t seen the Defence Investment Plan thinks it’s great.
And
The ministers who have seen the Defence investment Plan thought it was so bad they resigned! https://t.co/rZTzJ5vt9W
Faced with a choice between a Defence Secretary who wanted to spend more on our armed forces, a Chancellor who wouldn’t, and an Attorney General who enjoys suing them, the Prime Minister decided he could do without … the Defence Secretary.
@michaelgove so good on @haveigotnews last night - I've honestly never watched it before. It was fun seeing Hislop get crosser and redder at Gove's good humour. What a strange little man Hislop is - half troll, half tuber.
Keir Starmer has been missing in action, and Nigel Farage has chosen to sow chaos and division. Only Kemi Badenoch has managed to speak for Britain on the cruel death of Henry Nowak > Daily Mail > https://t.co/HKf9r2t6N7
