My mum should work in sales. Within 48 hours she's convinced me to buy a Shark vacuum, a Ninja air fryer and smoothie maker, a food processor, and a whizzy whisk! I am staying with her all week and expect to be skint soon 😬 😂

Have just watched Panorama's
'Undercover in the Police'.
It's really shocking.
We'll be talking about it on #Newsnight with Mina Smallman, whose daughters Nicole & Bibaa were murdered. Later 2 Met PCs took photos of the dead women at the crime scene

Last night’s BBC Panorama – Undercover in the Police left me saddened, but not surprised.
Seeing uniformed police officers across different ranks displaying rudeness, racism, misogyny, and even violence was deeply troubling.

This is not for me to comment on really, but if it is to be re-made, please don’t make it uplifting, with characters full of resilience and hope… that would be the exact antithesis of the original.
