Dozens of local councillors became MPs for the first time on 4 July and there is no legal impediment to an MP continuing as a councillor, but it is generally not seen as possible to do both jobs properly at the same time. This posed no problem for the former Tory MP for Mansfield, Ben Bradley, who managed to combine the roles of MP and county council leader until 4 July, when he lost his seat and £91,346 salary. Happily he can still rely on the annual £55,233 he gets for being leader of Nottinghamshire county council. Over the last three years he has claimed a total of almost £440,000 from the public purse for being in two places at once.

President @JoeBiden and I fight for the American people. Donald Trump fights for himself.

Over the past six weeks, our Liberal family has grown. In the second week, @MCRLibDems saw the largest sign-up and recruitment of new members in the UK. It’s not too late to get involved and be part of our movement. Join our fight for a Fair Deal! 🔶 👉 mcrlibdems.uk/join

A wonderful weekend for all who reject the extreme right. Vanquished in both the UK and France, their message of easy solutions and policies of blame were rejected by the electorate. The peoples of both nations were too clever for them.

Water companies could face a tide of legal challenges after a landmark judgment in the Supreme Court removes the block on lawsuits over pollution. This major win has been six years in the making – and finally came in this momentous week. goodlaw.social/42st

Disgusting that Keir is holding a meeting here when he knows full well these rooms are traditionally reserved for parties.

LK doing a sterling job of exposing the fact that Labour still haven't cured all the ills of the past 14 years, despite being in power for ... 3 whole days. #bbclaurak

Last yr a woman told me she could never vote for me as I was “just a waitress with no qualifications” (I owned a catering biz) & she was disgusted by Angela R who she said “couldn’t control herself” (as a teen mum) Today I’m the local MP & AR is Dep PM. That’s real Levelling Up

One thing Starmer could do as part of signalling a return of grown-ups to government might be to say now that the next general election will be on 3 May 2029.
