Remember to write your 2022 resolutions on pieces of Velcro. Much easier to stick to them.

The Culture Secretary has repeatedly attacked journalists. She called @MrJamesOB a “public school posh boy f*ck wit” and asked his bosses to sack him. Would her abuse fall foul of her own upcoming Online Safety Bill? Hear her answer at the @CommonsDCMS Committee. She’s not sorry.

Abolish the £20 Universal Credit uplift because people "don't need it". Let MPs keep their noses in the consultancy trough because "they are human beings with families".

James O'Brien rips into Tory MP Andrew Rosindell after he claimed some Universal Credit recipients 'quite like getting the extra £20 but maybe don’t need it,' but warned against a second-job ban for MPs who are 'human beings' with families... @MrJamesOB

How are “red wall” voters feeling now that HS2 has been partly scrapped? Mugged or still convinced all will be levelled up?
Solidarity with @jeremycorbyn who a year on is still being denied the Labour whip while being a Labour Party member. He continues to serve his constituents who overwhelmingly elected an MP who stands for peace and justice. He must have the whip restored.

Undeniable. You can be more concerned about issues other than politics. You can argue who is pulling their strings. You can sit back and claim ‘they’re all the same’. Whoever you vote for or even if you don’t. Be clear. We’ve never had a more corrupt self-serving Government.

To @BorisJohnson Enough of the hollow promises. It’s day 7 of Richard Ratcliffe’s hunger strike. Your government has failed time and again to help bring Nazanin and other British Nationals home. The time to act is NOW. #FreeNazanin #FreeAnoosheh

It has been a week since Richard Ratcliffe started his hunger strike to free his wife Nazanin Zaghari, wrongfully detained in Iran since April 2016. He is still camped outside the Foreign Office. What this family and other hostages and their families have endured is unfathomable.
