Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement.
Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph
Because this does NOT add up!
No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies…

Something I noticed this week was Keir Starmer is in the most unfortunate position any PM has been politically… well I’d argue ever.
Sure there have been other PMs facing bigger crises… Johnson with Covid, Brown with financial crash, Major with Black Monday etc etc

This is the man the BBC elevated & is refusing to investigate despite @carolecadwalla.bsky.social l & @bylinetimes.bsky.social

Do we have a precedent for a this ? A national broadcaster ignoring possible treason , isn’t that in itself sort of treasonous 🥴 ?

Seems @Nigel_Farage is trying damage limitation on the Reform Russian Bribes scandal.
He’s known Nathan Gill for 20 years, and claims he knew nothing.
No one believes you, Nigel.
Keep the story moving. Questions must be answered.

Ming Campbell was a dedicated public servant and a true Liberal giant.
His principled leadership opposing the Iraq War was a mark of his morality, courage and wisdom.
But more than that, he was an incredibly warm and caring friend and colleague.
We will miss him terribly.
