Hardly anyone knows about this. If you’ve lost your ID you can still vote by applying for an emergency proxy until 5pm on polling day. Don’t lose your chance to vote the Tories out.

Lost your photo ID?
You can apply for an emergency proxy vote until 5pm on polling day.
Your proxy will need to show their own ID to cast your vote.

Not saying Twitter's advert targeting algorithm is a little wonky, but WTF?
Twitter polls are just a way of confirming your bubble agrees with you and have zero useful significance.

If you think Gary Lineker is one of the bad guys you need to seriously reconsider your world view.

Dear BBC, a gentle reminder that this is written on the side of your fucking headquarters. If I were you, I’d be sacking the chairman who withheld the truth, NOT the presenter who told it.

I'd presume the Civil Service have policy forbidding WhatsApp for official use. Why aren't there similar rules for ministers and advisors?

In fact, in December in England, one in ten people calling for an ambulance waited nearly four minutes for call handlers to even pick up the phone. Any way you slice the data, these are the worst times on record. 5/5

In the Commons I’ve just called out the Conservatives’ attempt to gerrymander elections with compulsory voter ID. It’s voter suppression pure and simple.
8,000 people in #plymouth won’t have the right ID to vote in May’s elections. It’s a democratic outrage I refuse to vote for

I know I can block him, just seems a little childish, would rather be able to just ignore him.

I guess it's because I occasionally reply to point out his idiocy.
But the point of Twitter is you curate the list of people you follow to get quality, interesting content. I don't want the algorithm guessing what I'll like, or at least I want the option to veto suggestions.

Dear Twitter,
Every other tweet on my timeline is from the idiot Grimes. I don't even follow him. Why do you do this?

If they wanted to stop fraud surely requiring people to take their polling card would be sufficient.

This blatantly discriminates against the younger and less well off who are less likely to have a driving licence or passport.
There is the option of a PASS (proof of age) card for £15, but the cost and hassle of getting one is still a significant barrier to voting for many.

Long-awaited details of the government’s voter ID scheme have now been released, including details of which IDs will be accepted at the polling station. The list contains plenty of options for older voters, but few for younger voters.

Hancock in the jungle makes sense. Politics has become reality TV, a popularity contest where the sole objective is not being voted out.

I know the membership still love him, but whatever magic he had with the voters in 2019 is gone and will be very hard to recover.

Just maybe Boris is right, now is not the right time (for him). Best case (for him) is he'd recoup some of the poll deficit but be leading into economically difficult times with a backdrop scandal, Tory division & fed up electorate leading to defeat in 2 years.

"Absolutely. What we will make sure is that over the medium term the debt is falling. But we will do that not by cutting public spending but by making sure we spend public money well."
WTF does this even mean, cut debt by spending the same amount of money "well".

This "anti-growth coalition" is just getting the excuses in early, inventing an enemy to blame when the promised growth doesn't materialise.
