Who would have thought that #Cambridge University's Faculty of Divinity would be a centre of extreme-right extremism, and that the University would so secretive about it.

The voters of Clacton will see more of their MP once he’s resigned 😂

If fartage thinks he can get away with being investigated by resigning, he is in for a rude awakening

What a load of self pitying whinging from fartage

Cricket should be owned by its members. That's why we must oppose demutualisation, and keep county cricket owned by fans. Agree? Sign your name below: party.coop/campaign/cri...

A #RomanGlass cup made with coloured glass rods known as ‘millefiori’ from #Pompeii. It was preserved in the AD 79 Vesuvius eruption material. Glass objects like this are luxurious things and would have been expensive.

To vote at a polling station, voters must present an accepted form of photo ID. A Voter Authority Cert. is a free form of ID for those who lack any.

I thought this was an AI mock up because no man would be so monumentally idiotic, insensitive and intrusive as to punish women for not having children…but then it is Reform.

Reform are not on yourside.

Reform not care about women’s safety.

Reform only see us as baby making machines.

Junior doctors (or whatever they’re called these days) are disgraceful. Striking during a flu epidemic just before Christmas is vile entitled behaviour.

Every week when I get the bus to my parents' place I pass the turning to the almost-900k house and swimming pool Farage's girlfriend allegedly bought with cash - no mortgage - that he's repeatedly lied about. The press have now happily dropped the issue. I'm getting angrier about it by the day.
