Sarah Pochin raised "concerns" in parliament about the impact of second homes on rural communities.

Two days later she purchased an £800,000 second home on Anglesey.

Remarkable stuff.

They lost all six.
Six contests. Six defeats.
Reform are not inevitable. Their bubble has burst😉
Have a great weekend comrades!

Nige is not rattled that the UK likes its new PM. Or that Reform is second in the polls. Oh no. Because Nige believes in Nige

It’s corruption on steroids in plain sight. He doesn’t even try to hide that he’s looting US and cashing in on insider trading.
He’s the most corrupt president in American history.

I appreciate I'm late to the party, but Colin From Accounts is one of the best comedies I've seen for a while. The characters, even the the fleeting ones, are superb.

Only halfway through, but it has stayed consistently good. Hope it continues

This is an incredible breakdown of the deception deployed by Man City. They are bang to rights. Nothing less than relegation, transfer ban and fines will do. A mass exodus in the offing too www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

The 40-page document which confirmed Manchester City were found guilty of inflating sponsorship income makes fascinating reading. Here's what it sets out.

If you want to really know how the outrage machine gets fired up:

1. Schmitt plans to drop “bombshell” on Smith

2. Someone plants story that Schmitt is a Vance VP contender to run same day

3. Right-wing Twittersphere gets talking points

4. Schmitt steps in it

5. Scheduled tweets go out anyway

This a simple, clear summary of the triple lock and how Burnham plans to change it. It will still be a lock, but more like 2.5x lock than a triple!!

Triple lock is dead... or is it?

NO IT DOESN'T! You literally only spoke to one person, sought out explicitly because she disagreed. 😂

Wales back to trying to get Championship players to step up a level. I know we are missing a.few, but it's a tough watch. Also wonder how much the Bellamy debacle is playing out.

We need to qualify for the Euros. Will be horrible watching the party in our back yard and we're not invited.

Well done San Diego Padres. An incredible turnaround 2nd half of the season, and particularly the last 15 games. They had a 10% chance of making the play offs at one point, now they are hosting the Cubs. Amazing!! Petco Park will be buzzing Tuesday

🚨 NEW BEST FOR BRITAIN RESEARCH 🚨

If Labour commit to rejoining the EU in the next manifesto they will be the party most likely to form a government.

If Burnham wants to stop Farage, grow our economy and bring Britain to the top table, he must commit to EU membership.

Cardiff City dominated again today. Charlton big strong side, but we just played around them. Made 7 or 8 really good chances again, this time taking 3 of them. Moylan superb. What a great signing. Ref awful. Hope Salech injury not too bad as no cover for him. Transfer window will haunt us
