Instead of conferring titles, gongs and baubles and then demanding those titles, gongs and baubles be removed…

…perhaps as a modern, mature polity we should have far fewer titles, gongs and baubles in the first place.

😑 this should be one of the most important things the government are looking at. These companies are just not going to change unless forced to

It’s so sad Kerry. Lacking education and why we need to invest

It sounds like the case in France, which was horrific of Gisele Pelicot.

I really hope these councils show people who they really are It gives potential voters a window into how they would govern. Hope you are well Gary

10 Reform policies that would clobber Brits Whether it's mass deportations, slashing hundreds of billions of spending, or tax cuts for the super-rich, Reform UK and Nigel Farage have set out their pitch to voters

Tax breaks for foreign millionaires but mass deportations for the rest. Huge austerity and NHS cuts, replacing NHS with insurance model, scrapping NetZero, workers’ rights and online safety act. And a trade war with the EU.

Reform:
Corrupt. Ruinous. Racist. Moronic.

We urgently need to make it easy to see a doctor locally, GP or walk in centre. There have been so many people ill since late October I’m not surprised at this report. Health messaging also seems to be non existent

Five years after a pandemic begins:
❌No clean air in schools
❌ No vaccines for flu and covid available to all
❌ No masks when things get worse
Result = flu everywhere, teachers and pupils sick
πŸ†˜No lessons learnt

Tories should hang their heads in shame after Benefits Street lies Former PM Gordon Brown lambasts the Conservatives for peddling cruel myths about welfare scroungers - and shines a light on their record pushing children into poverty

So, #r4today reports on the Covid inquiry and the β€œtoo little, too late” Tory govt, then says they’ll be talking to *Lord* Gove about it. Ugh.
That just sums up so much that’s so very wrong with our politics and media.
Rewarding, rather than punishing, those responsible for failing us all.
