This comes from the MP who has around a 31% voting participation in parliament. The bottom 10%.

Labour’s latest half-baked scheme is a truly dreadful idea. How can you expect kids to turn up on time and work hard if their teachers are only present 4 days a week? It's frankly insulting to pupils and parents. Reform will fight this at every turn.

So Billy and Mesik come out of that half with some credit. Jones and Ramsay been solid in defence. Campbell is trying but usually gets the ball with his back to goal. Last 10 mins were better but... #cafc

The vast majority of ‘hardworking people’ will never have to worry about inheritance tax & leaving the kids an extra million quid tax free. Instead they might be more worried about properly funding the NHS, keeping our streets safe & clean and all the rest. Tory priorities 🙄

Tories again giving tax cuts to the rich and cutting funding to the poorest. You can change the leader, change the cabinet but not change the DNA of the party.

BREAKING; Kemi Badenoch announces that the Tories will legislate so that nobody 'ever' pays inheritance tax on their family home She also says that couples will be able to leave an additional £1million tax-free 'These changes mean every inheritance tax bill will be cut and the number of families paying inheritance tax will fall by more than half'

No one wrote a story when I turned up to work dressed like I was auditioning to be the next Dr Who. Judge Lou based on her decisions, not because she’s wearing trainers on the commute to work. 🙄

Dressed to run the country? PM's de facto deputy 'Red Lou' Haigh turns up for work (in scuffed-up trainers) as she's left as most senior minister in UK while Burnham takes a family holiday trib.al/9gM3BIc

When a team is expunged for cheating in a knock-out competition,ineligible player or otherwise, it's standard practice for their opponents to be reinstated. From FA Cup to County to Sunday, so why should it be any different for Boro? Appreciate Hull have been messed around but...

Jesus was a champion of the marginalized, migrants, refugees, the poor & the sick - literally everyone you & Reform despise. You're not a Christian when your every waking moment is spent denying and offending Christian teaching. Your dog whistle must be wearing out by now.

@lewis_goodall @campbellclaret @MarinaPurkiss This isn’t tough policy. It’s a clear abuse of public power - essentially collective punishment🧵 1/. Can a government site detention centres based on how an area votes? Short answer: No. Unlawful. Third Reichian and third rate.

If you vote Reform you will not have an illegal migrant deportation facility in your area. We will hold migrants awaiting deportation in constituencies that vote Green instead. You get what you vote for.

Zia Yusuf says Reform will detain "tens of thousands at a time" of migrants. Receipts: • Britain's biggest prison, HMP Oakwood: capacity 2,106 • Entire HM Prison Service: 88,000 places, 99% full • Cost per detainee per year: -£46,000 • Reform's costed plan for any of this: zero pages They can't run a Wetherspoons, let alone a gulag.

Last home game of the season. Be great to get the result today at home. Overall this season i think we deserve to stay up. It's been tough but we've competed in most games. With @AlexD905 and @MarkDay_CAFC #cafc
