I'll add from my experience that you may have missed a vaccine as a kid due to admin errors. I missed my menangitis vaccine and didn't know until I was 18 and needed evidence of it. Was then able to get it through my GP. Worth checking with your GP as they can give you vaccines you missed at any age
Measles spreads easily. Ensuring you and your loved ones are up to date with your MMR or MMRV jabs is the best protection. Contact your GP to get vaccinated.

I am like 80% sure they wouldn’t have had to do this if they had stuck to the line that electing a councillor to serve for less than a year is pointless instead of sending Steve Reed out to the media say that local government elections in entirety didn’t matter.

Becoming obsessed with the “there are actually 90 million people in Britain” conspiracy theory. Truly a fascinating and bizarre one. I might end up doing a long write about it at some point.

Starmer is safe until May only if the Mandelson files show that he didn’t actually know Mandelson was passing state secrets to Epstein when he appointed him ambassador. Given all that’s been going on, that’s a big if.
Is Keir Starmer safe for now? This morning, energy secretary Ed Miliband told @BBCNews Labour MPs had "looked over the precipice" on Monday but "thought the right thing to do was to support our leader".

“My I was never close friends with Peter Mandelson t-shirt etc. etc.”
This is the funniest headline I seen in a long time. And bravo to whoever underlined the desperation with the juxtaposed link.

Given that Mahmood goes on to say the answer to Wilkinson’s question is that we definitely won’t be seeing anything like ICE, this is the absolute worst opener she possibly could have given. Ignorant and confrontational in order to vice signal to nobody at all.
