Baroness Charlotte Owen's supposedly can’t be discussed in the press because of a super injunction.
The only reason for a super injunction would be because she is in fact Johnson’s daughter.
She and all the other unqualified grifters need to be kicked out of the House of Lords

The Times journalist who fought to get the story about the Reform MP who kicked his girlfriend multiple times @georgegreenwood.bsky.social tells how hard the newspaper had to right to get the information released.
So who has been protecting the Reform MP?
So who has been protecting the Reform MP?
As an addendum to this, it took four months to get this information, which would have been publicly available at the time of conviction.
The Times had to appoint counsel and attend a hearing at Westminster Magistrates Court to secure its release. That is not an expense all publishers can afford.

The former prime minister calls for an end of life commission instead of an assisted dying bill - which he fears would "alter society's attitude" towards the seriously ill.

We hear a lot about the financial problems that NHS Trusts and general practices face. But community pharmacies also face similar funding challenges, exacerbated by additional problems such as dealing with drug shortages. Pharmacies provide many essential services and also need our support.
