My thoughts this afternoon are with a Warwickshire Police Officer who was seriously injured in the line of duty yesterday, after being hit by a vehicle. 😔
Thinking of their friends, family, loved ones and of course colleagues too and hoping for a very swift recovery.

That smirk on Farage's face when he jokes about a woman being assaulted, whilst she's still being assaulted says it all. When someone shows you who they are, believe them.

Incredible moment in the doc when Farage’s right-hand man Dan Jukes lists several foreign donors who’ve given money to the party via their kids.
It’s not just one or two backers - it’s a huge conspiracy cooked up by the party to break the law. It’s bigger than we even thought

So this is your reminder; at work you’re a number, but at home you are you.
There’ll be other ways, and they’ll be other days, but they’ll never be, another you.
