Rachel Reeves clears planning blockage amid ‘good relationship’ with developer
Exclusive: Chancellor says 20,000 homes were being held up due to ‘some snails that are a protected species or something’
We always knew that Labour cares about little else other than keeping private developers happy.
But here's proof showing off to JP Morgan despite destruction of some of the "rarest creatures in our country."
Let's make that description Labour votes.

It's so ludicrous to look at a community and think its not "integrated" because it exists visibly. It's even more stupid for this nonsense to be regurgitated in the media as if it doesn't defy logic

You are so deeply committed to not hearing why everyone is giving up on you. (Clue: the answer isn't 'not enough flags.')

I would totally forgive this if there was any chance it would work but it absolutely will not. As it is this just a bonfire of Carney and Canadian credibility.

My (Canadian) bf caught SO MUCH SHIT when he dared to say Carney wasn't all that in the lead-up to the crazy Canadian GE a few months back. He got scoffed at til he was covered in gob. Carney fckn sucks. And it sucks that it's yet another country that had the choice of: terrible or very bad.

This sums it up quite well. I’m tired of hearing people say “we need a strong Republican Party” when we really don’t need one at all. Especially since they’re mostly pedophiles.

yeah I have to point out to people, like.. what was the ai trained on? loads of research and journal articles I imagine, scholarly books too, and just regular people use them!! it's so weird! I think there's something around the placement of em-dashes in a text but themselves.. they are em-dashes.

Snow @Lookinupatstars
On days like these I remember this moment.
Absolutely fucking tragic turn of events
( photo of nigel farage after he was involved in a light air crash back in the 2000s. he’s fine. few scratches. )
Graham Linehan @Glinner
I remember when I was an NPC and hugging myself with glee over this too.
Jamie Lamarra @LamarraJam 21m
The people I know on the right don't laugh at political adversaries personal injury or illness or deaths. The people I know on the left get real glee from all that above.

Replying to @LamarraJam
literally thought he was a Nazi because everyone said he was.
Sorry @Nigel_Farage

Kind of surprised I'm 80 and still standing - born a natural socialist/humanitarian despite being surrounded by racists, zenophobes, misogynists, patriarchal laws and social norms.
