Let’s not forget that even if England win against Norway on Saturday they will then immediately have to march 200 miles south and play France without so much as a hydration break

While the opposition play political games, Keir Starmer's Labour Government is delivering for Britain.
ALT A quote from Keir Starmer: We are the first government for generations to take key parts of the public realm back into public ownership. The opposition don't like that, but we're doing it. The first government for generations to give rights and power to workers, to renters, to the less fortunate. They don't like that, and they're trying to stop us. The first government for generations prepared to stand against wealth interests, to raise money and put that into public services and fighting child poverty. They don't like it, they said they'd reverse it. We have a mandate to do all those things. And they are not going to stop us.

Guilty as charged. I love "Musliming" transplant organs from every creed colour and religion into every other. Because the gift is the same whoever the giver. So on this blessed day marking new life, this Muslim wishes you all a Happy Easter 🥚🧺⛪

Reform UK said I was 'bullying' when I pointed out their colleague was jailed for beating up his former partner.
Now, they're trying to sneak him back into their party. So I'll say it again:
James McMurdock was jailed for beating up his former partner.

🧵When perusing the England's Immigrants 1330-1550 database I was interested to note the number of people from Iceland in Yorkshire especially around Hull and Beverley. Icelanders in 15th-century Yorkshire were drawn by the booming stockfish trade during the so-called “English

Because the Donald, PMs aren’t the head of state. They have a cabinet to consult. And they also need to have the consent of Parliament before they start engaging our military personnel in conflicts. It’s called democracy.
Trump: "The prime minster of UK told me 'I'm meeting with my team to make a determination.' I said, 'You don't need to meet with a team. You're the prime minster. You can make your own. Why do you need to meet with your team to find out if you're gonna send some mine sweepers or boats to us?' It's the same thing here."

Well this is interesting @reformparty_uk
What does @Nigel_Farage have to say about @luke11campbell commitment to renewables? Looks like he isn’t following orders from @TiceRichard ? Just confusion all round for business leaders?

It was great to meet with @humber_energy yesterday to talk about the role our region will play in the future of the UK’s energy security.
The #Humber powers around 20% of the UK, is home to about a third of the UK’s offshore wind capacity, and has hydrogen storage that could supply 2 million homes for a year.
There is a huge opportunity to cut emissions, create good local jobs, and help reduce energy bills for families and businesses.
As our energy system evolves, it must work for the people of Hull and East Yorkshire, supporting industry, protecting jobs, and helping people develop the skills they need.

People are rightly impatient to see the change they voted for.
It’s our job to make sure that happens. And we’re working day in, day out to see it through.

Leader of Reform @Nigel_Farage has “neither the decency or backbone “ to deal with the Reform Cllr who made a death threat to a Labour woman MP. This is both shocking and disgraceful @Keir_Starmer

And this is why, in an age where we expect everything to happen immediately, there are some things that just need more time and switching horses before the plan bakes gives you the worst of all worlds. There will be blips … always are… but how about we stop wishing the worst on ourselves.
So it appears that Rachel does know what she’s doing after all…

New Year’s Day was the busiest day for 999 calls in the NHS’s history - yet ambulances still arrived 15 minutes faster than the same time last year.
We’ve got lots more to do, but our plan is working and moving the NHS in the right direction.
