Outskirts of Leeds, though she claimed to live in Boston in the weeks leading up to the May by-elections.
When she was Morley & Outwood MP she lived 180 miles away near Bristol, with husband Jack Lopresti who was a Tory MP down there.
Rules are for common people, they don't apply to her.

I'm hoping she sells her house soon and moves to Lincolnshire to start her new job as mayor.
So tired of her yappy dogs waking me up at the crack of dawn every day.

Just wow! This is an Atlas moth native to Southeast Asia, one of the largest moths in the world, known for its impressive wingspan, which can reach up to 24 cm (9.4 in)

Always reported as 'cash' but it is never paid as a cash hand-out. It is a credit to an ASPEN card that is similar to a debit card.

Any asylum seeker placed in hotel accommodation on a full-board basis will receive Β£8.86 per week - Β£460.72 per year to pay for toiletries, clothing and transport.

She is supposed to live in Lincolnshire - she is the mayor there after all - but hardly ever leaves here house here in Leeds.
Liar liar pants on fire when it comes to most things it seems.

Where's the really racist one?
Was she out doing her community service or something equally important, or just her turn to hold the camera for the photo?

That is a very interesting article.
It does make me wonder whether Sunak called the last election partly due to knowing that income tax rises were inevitable due to the cost of servicing these 'linkers'.

He should be in a cage too, just because it would be funny having a cage in a cage like those stupid Russian doll things.

Circling would be a male chasing the attention of a female.
Males often barge into other males and if they start fighting properly they can inflict quite nasty bites.
