Everyone should make their plans to survive a Reform government. Which for some of us will be harder than others. But if your first instinct is "collude" I hope you don't survive and I'll do my best to make sure you don't.

Well guys, two days ago they started installing the tallest part of the Sagrada Familia, the cross at the top of its central tower.
After more than a century, it is going to be finished pretty soon.

Kemi Badenoch is of course the poster-child for making the wise decision to be born in Wimbledon a few months before the Tories changed the rules that allowed her to be a British citizen thereby.
