Just one problem Penny: under your government’s protest laws if you stand up and fight for your human rights in the street you will now be arrested
"Stand up and fight, stand up and fight" Penny Mordaunt issues a rallying cry to her party's MPs and members at the Conservative Party Conference, where she's met with a standing ovation trib.al/qJb4x3V

Hi Britain First, Just letting you know that I walked the entire length of my train home finding all of your leaflets so I could rip them up. You aren’t patriots. You don’t represent British values. You’re just racist fucks.

Sunak didn’t just cancel HS2
 He authorised the sale of the land that would form part of the cancelled route So no other leader could reverse his decision. This major decision One he took unilaterally Without consulting parliament 
without anyone having voted for him.

Mordaunt keeps saying Labour wants to return the UK to the disaster of the 1980s. I am finding this quite confusing. Because that was Thatcher’s heyday.

The Tory Party has entered the Trump World of alternative facts. Dangerous times. They have to be shown the door so comprehensively that there is no way back until they get back to some kind of basic decency
Tory MP Michelle Donelan: “We are the Party of facts” *VT compilation of Tory lies* Victoria Derbyshire: “There was never a proposal to use 7 bins, we can’t find any council that wants to decide when you can go to the shop & Labour have never proposed taxing meat” #Newsnight

It's taken the Tories six years to go from throwing a prankster out of conference for handing Theresa May a P45 to throwing a Tory chair of the London Assembly out of conference for muttering about a Tory Home Secretary's "homophobic rant". What might the next six years bring?

Labour suggests ways to tackle people-smuggling gangs and work with the EU to do so and Mail/Brexit brainmelts lose their shit again. We can’t have a ‘Brexit betrayal’ tantrum any time we cooperate with our own continent. It’s beyond childish when Brexit itself blocks progress.

Rishi Sunak says collapsing schools "wasn't even worthy of a single mention" in Keir Starmer's education speech this summer. Here's the section of Starmer's speech back in July in which he specifically mentioned crumbling schools. #PMQs

Sorry to mone, but how hard can it be to give public money exclusively to people who aren’t married to Tory politicians?

It’s impossible to underestimate the role ‘austerity’ played in the crumbling state of the nation. It’s 52% of the reason why David Cameron gets his own chapter in ‘How They Broke Britain’. Out Nov 2. Pre-order link in my bio.
Replying to @tamcohen
Nick Gibb concedes to @SkyNews that "of course, we put in a bid for 200" schools in 2021. But the Treasury has to look at all the other costs - and Rishi Sunak's decision to build 50 a year was in line with previous [austerity] years, he says.

Man in charge of funding schools says it’s not his fault schools don’t have enough funding.
PM Rishi Sunak says it is "completely and utterly wrong" to blame him for failing to fix crumbling concrete in England's schools Follow the latest developments bbc.in/3LaIuGJ

We made case 300-400 schools needed rebuilt a year Govt decided only money for 100 a year We made argument for 200 a year The Chancellor said no. He cut it to 50 a year The Chancellor? -Rishi Sunak -Jonathan Slater ex Perm Sec Education @BBCr4today A scandal in slow motion

150 schools can’t open this week as they’re not structurally safe. And govt is now flailing around claiming they’ve been exemplary in dealing with this. Sorry. But there could not be a clearer sign of them not giving a single shit. And pretending to care now just makes it worse.
