This is the classic WF view - and yeah, it’s a great pedestrian street and I can see why it’s such a destination. But I actually preferred the smaller more local shops as it felt more replicable.

We have got Boris Johnson out of Downing Street, let's get him out of Parliament.

Intrigued by rumours that @BorisJohnson - boozing it up here during one of his many No 10 lockdown-breaking parties - may ditch his Uxbridge constituents on the chicken run back to his old safe constituency of Henley.
Where I live.
Should I stand as an independent against him?

It's not "susceptible to being instrumentalized".
That's its purpose. The contrived #IHRA "definition of antisemitism" was designed specifically to silence the truth about Israel's brutality against Palestinians by exploiting sympathy for the Holocaust to shield Israel.

The Government's decision to allow bee-killing pesticides to be used this year, against scientific advice, is a disgrace. They should be supporting farmers to move swiftly to integrated pest management. The Tory attack on nature must stop.

BREAKING: Shocking autopsy reveals climate activist and pacifist Miguel Teran was shot at least 13 times by Georgia police. The state () must release all evidence – including critical body cam footage.
Feels like an ambush-style execution.

4 February 1899 | A Dutch Jewish woman, Elisabeth Gobets, was born in Amsterdam. She was a seamstress.
She arrived in #Auschwitz on 2 December 1942 in a transport of 826 Jews deported from Westerbork. She was most probably murdered in a gas chamber after selection.

I’ve cancelled my Labour Party membership today. At my age it’s strange to be changing. I still believe that their voters are mostly decent. It’s just not my Party anymore. I’m signing up to the Greens. I won’t vote against something. I will vote for something.

The real #Zahawi scandal isn't that he failed to pay £3.7m on his £27m, it's that he was only supposed to pay £3.7m. That is a lower tax rate than someone working full time on minimum wage #TaxTwitter

'40% of private sector housing rentals get Housing Benefit' - That is your taxes (or our Government's money) subsidizing the income and asset accumulation of private landlords. We don't have to run housing this way.

Home Sec wants to ban people who arrive in small boats from going to court to question any decisions she makes about them. Must be irritating for her to have to act lawfully, but the rule UK has stuck to for last 300 years is no-one is above the law. Sorry to be such a pest.

I remember when my partner died I struggled to pay the bills. I had 4 kids at home from ages 3 - 15. I was with British Gas & they forced us onto a prepayment meter. As a family we were at our most vulnerable. When you’re down these practices are meant to keep you down! Vile.

If the NHS followed the case law which should guide it hundreds of thousands of people, possibly millions, would have their care costs fully funded by the NHS under continuing care.

"British people will still be able to go and work in the EU; to live; to travel; to study; to buy homes and to settle down” – Boris Johnson, Sunday Telegraph, 26 June 2016.
The lies are so shocking as scarcely to be comprehensible. How were so many taken in by this?

Have a look at Green Party policies. You might well find them similar to yours. It's true that it is hard for a third party to win under first past the post (which Starmer supports) but every vote encourages others. And why not vote for your values?
Quote Tweet
Genuine Question?
Each time I come anywhere close to thinking, I will have to hold my nose and vote Starmer's Labour.( that's what he calls it)
He does something else to make me really dislike and distrust him.
What's the answer, we can't vote for a coalition ?

Ladies and gentleman. This man is without a doubt one of my heroes. He lights a fire of ambition and passion for change and a belief that eventually social care might be recognised for its true worth! Oh, and it’s not Care Scotland!
