My happy place, especially with sun on my face. Ornamental grasses chopped back. Potted Roses planted. Compost heap pulled over, well rotted stuff spread on the raised veg bed. ❤️

I’m watching and it’s astounding. We all knew something like this was going on - but the extent of it! While so many were suffering, dying, sunk into loneliness - a few were absolutely RAKING IT IN. The COVID health crisis was a very, very lucrative opportunity for some.
🚨Our upcoming documentary on the VIP Lane made the ITV news this evening.
“Waste of taxpayers' money': Whistleblower says billions wasted on unfit PPE during Covid pandemic”.
🎥Tune in to ITV Sunday 10.15pm to watch the rest of “The Covid Contracts”

Reform is a Limited Company
Farage owns 53%
It was formed in 2019 to push for a “no-deal Brexit”
It wants to reintroduce the Liz Truss budget
It wants to privatise the NHS
& invest in fossil fuels
Close the BBC
& break International law
It’s a scam
Please retweet widely
