The extraordinary bit in this clown show is to think she was a British prime minister…truly amazing.
Left: Liz Truss says Gordon Brown crashed the economy, he didn't. And that Rachel Reeves has pushed the UK to an economic crisis, she hasn't

Right: Truss apologises/ Sunak says he was made PM t fix her mistakes. Hunt says he reversed her budget. Even Kwasi Kwarteng said he told her to slow down

Conservatives politicising child abuse - disgusting

Elon Musk knows ‘absolutely nothing’ about women and girls’ safety, says Jess Phillips
Thank you for all the great work you do and have done over the years. Ignore the little weasel as best you can. Almost guaranteed that he knows absolutely nothing bar a headline about this issue.

So agree with this stand re Musk and Twitter. Action not words. Get off Twitter.
I’ve left Elon Musk’s platform because it’s not just poisonous now but dangerous. I asked the Home Secretary about the exploitation of the suffering of victims by a man whose only interest is spreading hate & chaos. youtu.be/WP8bkYQo7KQ?...
