"It’s the sheer confidence with which Oliver Dowden lies, the calmness with which he steps on all the Tories’ previous promises, and the utter remorselessness with which he admits the damage that breaking those promises is doing"

Wow. After introducing his guest as “a particularly distinguished professor of economics at Kings college London” Jacob Rees-Mogg squirms as he’s told some hard truths about the damage of Brexit. Watch in disbelief at what comes next
Like many jobs traditionally done by women, nursing is underpaid and undervalued. It’s sometimes treated almost as an act of charity rather than the highly skilled profession it is.
Nurses don’t have to be angels or heroes to deserve decent pay. It’s enough that they’re workers.
The Tories want you to focus on what happens to patients if nurses go on strike.
The real question is... What happens if they DON'T!

Naked cruelty from Conservative Chair Jake Berry today:
“People know that when their [fuel] bills arrive, they can either cut their consumption or get a higher salary, higher wages, go out there and get that new job. That’s the approach the govt is taking".
It has been heartbreaking to lose vote after vote on the Nationality and Borders Bill and see it move closer to becoming law.
I played my part by voting and speaking against it, but sadly it won't be enough to stop this appalling legislation which goes against British values.
The Bank of England just said No-Deal Brexit is worse for our economy than the entire pandemic and yet in Rishi Sunak's #SpendingReview, he made no mention of helping UK businesses to cope with Brexit other than one year of farming payments which will likely disappear after that.
