Am going to be using "sparkling local government" from now on.

#Brexit robbed our young people of the exciting opportunity, enjoyed by many before them, to work, study and live in Europe.

I've co-sponsored this Bill and will keep calling for a scheme that offers young people across the UK and EU this enriching experience.

I would simply say that one of the changes to tackle it should be to bar anyone who's been convicted of VAWG from serving as an MP, since the party whose MPs are 1/5 convicted domestic abuser aren't there to protest

Charges against all 34 Dove activists have been dropped

🚨 Good News! All charges have been DROPPED against the 34 Greenpeace activists who SHUTDOWN Unilever’s headquarters last September.

This is GREAT news - but the right to protest is still in danger. 🧵

And happy new year 2025 to you, random stone painter, and all who start back at work today. #brighton

Word of the Day is one I keep posting at the end of the year, hoping its time will come.
