I was out canvassing today. Little support for Green, a lot of anti-Reform and a lot of support for Labour. Only one bit of a large constituency. One resident said they were going to kick Farages ass

NEW: NEW: Standards commissioner finds Nigel Farage committed seventeen breaches of MPs code of conduct.

He failed to declare Β£333,000 in outside interests (more than 3x MPs annual salary)…

Richard Tice agreed to replace me on the Laura Kuenssberg show after I had a sudden attack of not wanting to be questioned about my support for the orange turd who is treating NATO allies worse than he treats Russia.

Nadim Zahawi arrived in the UK from Iraq as a child refugee. His family claimed asylum once they were here. Today he has joined Reform who will stop all in country asylum applications. Under his new party, his own family fleeing persecution would be immediately deported.

I met him with my parents on a ski holiday 40 years ago. We all laughed at him because he was wearing a ski helmet. How stupid we were. We have all been wearing ski helmets for 20+

Did you know that on the 12th of  September 2001, the United States invoked NATO Article 5, asking its allies, its brothers and sisters in Europe, to join it in a war against terrorism. About three thousand six hundred men and women sacrificed their lives in this war, about one quarter were European. This is the only time Article 5 was invoked by any NATO country, and arguably, not the foe it was intended to be invoked against. Regardless. Europe played its part, but notably, Denmark sent around nine thousand five hundred soldiers, and paid the greatest price, sacrificing forty-three lives, the highest loss per capita among NATO coalition members in Afghanistan. To my US friends, if you voted blue or red, I couldn't care less, but if you have a shred of morality, can I ask you to ring your local US representative and tell them this rhetoric is wrong, wrong, wrong.

"This study reports that in utero SARS-CoV-2 viral exposure results in decreased cognitive skills in toddlers mediated by structural differences in the regions of the newborn brain."

It is. I don’t think Starmer should respond alone. It should come from a collection of leaders from NATO.

Some people do my head in.
This arse is one of them.
Why TF would we care about his business…? Did he care about all the SMEs bankrupted by Brexit? Does he feel any anxiety or shame about just how much that stupid idea has cost our country and many of us personally.
No.
He can absolutely do one.

I have some sympathy with the junior doctors and the are junior. The job is not the same as it was in 2003, they rightfully get far more supervision and do very few things on their own. The training numbers are not right but they don’t need another pay rise just now.

Tasha Williams works, has four children, and explains how lifting the two child benefit cap will help her:

"I can't describe in words without crying how pleased I am that it is lifted"

"For so many families it means so much"

Remarkable impact: there were no reported cases of #cervicalcancer among women in Scotland who received the #HPV vaccine at the age of 12–13 in the 12 years following vaccination. Here’s a look at studies from around the world that show that #VaccinesWork to #StopCervicalCancer: bit.ly/489S33A

Definitely worth paying for a flu jab this year, about Β£15 at pharmacies!

Completely agree. Paid for my vaccine and my daughter’s because neither the of us want Covid or to give it to anyone

Young babies are protected by maternal antibodies, hence PREGNANT WOMEN SHOULD BE ELIGIBLE DUE TO THIS, IN ADDITION TO DIRECT RISKS TO BOTH MOTHER AND CHILD DURING PREGNANCY.

Did I make that clear enough?

The high risk group involve serious hospitalisations, continuously.

We came across this sheep who was stuck. Tried to help it out but we couldn’t. Fortunately there was farm buildings not far away so I knocked and they said they would go and free it.

Absolutely great idea. I’ve seen his house- I don’t think he’s worried about people’s job just his income. How many people have lost their job,family, home, or their life secondary to a gambling addiction?

Covid vaccine done. Happy that I’ll be protected but it’s ridiculous that healthcare workers have to pay for vaccination when we are exposed so much at work.

I’m paying for mine too. Booked for the 18th. Had fly this week and thought I could just pay for Covid at the same time but it seems not all Pharmacies with do private Covid vaccines because they have to pay for the SOP
