Agreed. I am lucky to have a great MP (and wish she was PM instead of Starmer).

Having read some of the things she’s said/written I think she’s lower on the intelligence scale than Truss. How can people keep choosing such dim MPs who end up as PM - we have so many bright, intelligent, caring people - perhaps there should be a different way of choosing PM

Quick ALERT for anyone thinking they won't bother to vote because #KamalaHarris has enough support. Right now, the 538 prediction model has Harris winning only 56 times out of 100, while Trump wins 43 times. At this point in 2020 election cycle, Biden was forecast to win 80, Trump 20, as seen here:

The "cultural validity" piece by Kemi Badenoch contains shocking logical inconsistencies from someone who would be Prime Minister. E.g. she claims UK has a low growth rate due to high immigration, but Sunak says growth is better than X number of other countries? www.telegraph.co.uk./opinion/2024...

Good morning lovely freebirds. How's everyone's week started? Social media has lots of benefits, but folk feeling their life isn't perfect or exciting enough cos of what others post isn't one of them. Worry less about their lives and just focus on your own. Have an ace day 😘 #HaveCourageAndBeKind ❤️

New York Times seems to believe the Industrial Revolution was launched in 1874.

The world’s richest man is a harsh critic of illegal immigration. His past comments raise questions about his own path.
