How on earth can someone claim, after wiping out an organic lawn and replaced it with a sheet of plastic, that they have turned a garden from “desolate” to “luscious” ?
From desolate wasteland to luscious lawn in a day! 💚😎 More amazing work from Southdown Landscapes & Turf Co who specialise in #landscaping & #artificialgrass installations. #syntheticgrass #lowmaintenance #gardendesign #landscaping #outdoordesign #homeandgarden #landscapedesign

Does anyone in this rotten government actually think they are accountable or responsible for what they do? Cross country eye tests, bullying, breaking the Ministerial code. This one rule for them and another for everyone else government treats the public with contempt.
Just to be clear, when we say Priti Patel has broken the ministerial code, in any other line of work that means she has violated the rules of her employer. In most companies, that is a sackable offence. But PM has decided she'll stay.

South Africans suffered terribly under apartheid. People like Steve Biko were brutally killed by the Afrikaner regime. Some never went back home. I find it incredible that this horrible human tries to score political points by erasing anti-apartheid slogans.
I didn’t feel comfortable knowing my workplace was to be full of racists tonight. I don’t endorse Boris, but I do endorse #NeverCorbyn. Please see my pinned thread if you still don’t understand why. #LeadersDebate #LabourAntisemitism

Billy Caldwell went 300 days without epileptic seizures. Since his cannabis oil was seized at customs he has had 5 this week. Now he has been rushed to hospital with mum Charlotte. This is down to home office cruelty, who are sitting on his prescribed life-saving meds. Shameful

Confirmation received that we will be required to lose 15 handlers and their dogs by 2019 as part of budget cuts. Hugely disappointing doesn’t begin to describe emotions within the Unit.
