Boris Johnson, who until a few years ago owned a £3.75 million Islington townhouse with his former wife, who is a lawyer, repeatedly attacks Keir Starmer for being a lawyer from Islington. #PMQs
Serious. Tory MP William Wragg accuses govt whips and No 10 of blackmail and breaking ministerial code. Says they’ve threatened to withdraw investment from MPs’ constituencies if they support no confidence. Also threatened with negative press stories.
Ignore the next six hours’ headlines about Allegra Stratton. She is taking the flak for her boss who knew about parties, sanctioned parties, hosted parties - all of them breaches of the law he put in place. This is about Boris Johnson. Now he must go.
Yesterday Matt Hancock got very cross about claims his pub landlord got a Covid contract, calling them "a fabrication pushed by the Labour Party".
Today @GoodLawProject published evidence Matt’s pal was actually subcontracted for a Covid contract.
His reply? Nothing to see here
Boris Johnson's tax rise means a landlord who owns and rents out dozens of properties won’t pay a penny more, but the tenants working in full-time jobs will.
They are hitting young and low-paid workers while leaving the wealthy untouched.
11 years of Tory unfairness continues.
The wealth of UK billionaires is up by £106,500,000,000 in the pandemic.

Social care should be funded with a wealth tax, not a tax on the working class.

Presumably this is in honour of the paperback publication of #FakeLaw next week, 27 May 2021.
Let’s look at why this trash from the Mail is as misleading as it is dangerous.

UEFA have moved the final from Wembley to Lisbon just because 1000 non-essential UEFA VIPS would’ve had to quarantine for 10 days in the U.K.. Now fans have to pay thousands for accommodation, flights and tests. Thought UEFA was all about fans?

#FreeSchoolMeals On the left £30 of food. On the right what private company Chartwells have supplied having been awarded a government contract to supply for £30 free school meals.
Utterly shameful profiteering off some of the country's most disadvantaged kids!
