"Lots done. Lots more to do."

As Parliament is set to return tomorrow, here is a video the Labour government have put out to show us some of the things they have achieved in the first year.

And it's a LOOOOOOONG list.

On #BBCQT - Fiona Bruce said that the audience and public didn't want to press Reform UK on their dodgy links to Russia.

I disagree.

RT if you agree it's in the public interest for Reform to explain about their links to Russian money and bribery!

You don’t actually have to both sides this. The Jewish community in the UK is not the Israeli government. You can just condemn the murder of two British Jews killed in their place of worship and you don’t have to say a single other thing.

First, loved watching WRWC final and the commentary on BBC. Enough of sucking up! Second, I think the US Ryder team demonstrated that they are not necessarily team players but a bunch of talented individuals.

With science falling under increasing attack, this medical historian is here to remind people of the power of #vaccines. THREAD🧵

Hard-hitting polio advert from 1958. In the first half of the 20th century, polio was the leading cause of death in children and young adults. 1/7

An advertisement for the polio vaccine which reads: "they all got vaccine except dad...don't take a chance...take your polio shots!" It depicts a photo of a family gathered around a father who is in an iron lung.

But an advocate for free access to lethal weapons will get all the headlines. Thoughts and Effing Prayers for Charlie and the children.

Not the Nine O'Clock News comedy show had something similar. An audience member at a concert made coughing and other noises. Another audience member got upset and everyone else, including the conductor, told the complainer to shush and respect the "maestro" nuisance.

The wonders of Remington Beard Trimmers and Tresemme shampoo could have had something to do with his success.

Maybe if Troops were in cities and towns with high gun crime rates, they might stop school shootings and random shooting incidents!!!

Whatever the question was, you are right. My 3 are The Day the Earth Stood Still (Robert Wise), 2001 a Space Odyssey and Paul.
