Helen, Helen, Helen
Let me explain this to you in plain and exceedingly simple English.
Disabled kids are most likely to have been born with their disabilities or conditions (as I was). I know this might be shocking to you Helen, but we don't just stop being disabled at 18. Being born with a disability is usually a lifetime deal.
I tell you what, care to swap? You can have my cerebral palsy (and the benefits that you say come with it) and I'll take your fully functioning extremities and become an MP. Not a Tory one though, because I'm not a horrible bastard.
By the way, if you accept my offer, good luck trying to wipe your backside, put your own clothes on, wash any part of your body or doing any sort of cookery (since you won't be able to hold a knife properly) are, and one more thing, forget about rolling yourself over in bed at night, you'll have to get somebody to help you with that as well. But yeah, apart from that, a lifetime on benefits is really fucking easy isn't it?

A Cardiff University analysis of #bbcqt panel guests between 2014 and 2024 found that journalists and commentators from right-leaning outlets (such as 'The Spectator' & 'The Telegraph') accounted for 59.59% of media guest appearances, compared to 16.86% from left-leaning outlets.
This guy utterly dismantles the populist politics of Reform and Restore in 90 seconds. It’s actually quite beautiful.
Take decades of deep-rooted problems in Britain and convince people that a relatively tiny proportion of the population is responsible for all of them. Housing, the NHS, crime. Blame illegal migrants for everything.
Suddenly, you don’t need credible solutions to the housing crisis, NHS waiting lists or crime. You just need increasingly extreme policies on immigration.
And by the time people realise you never had meaningful answers to the vast majority of Britain’s problems, you’re already in power, handing out tax cuts to your donors.

Research by economists at NYU found that compulsory petrol price transparency in Germany reduced petrol prices by around 3% and diesel prices by 2%.
Very sensible pro-consumer policy here to put pressure on retailers to compete!
I know people are worried about fuel prices. And I get it. You get to the pump, watch the numbers climb, and wonder why it's costing so much more than it used to.
The reality is that global events are pushing up costs, and families here at home are feeling the impact.
But I won't accept that there's nothing I can do to help.
That's why from today, you'll be able to see petrol and diesel prices on Google Maps, compare nearby stations and find the cheapest option before you fill up.
It's a small change, but if there's a practical way to help people keep more money in their pocket, I'll do it.

David Reueben has allegedly got non dom status meaning he opts out of lots of British Taxation and he also keeps a lot of his money off shore anyway.
He holds substantial UK properties through off shore companies avoiding UK taxation.
He has been linked to Russian and German dodgy money scandals and has donated millions to the Tories who destroyed this country.
He is leaving to Monaco? Good riddance!
