.@HS2ltd "blew billions". Amongst other things, the Public Accounts Committee found that had #HS2 followed statutory redundancy terms, 94 people would have received a total of £1m. In fact, they received a total of £2.76m, paid for by you the taxpayer. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c984…

BREAKING: Tom Kerridge is the only chef in the country with a two Michelin star pub. He's backing Labour in the General Election. He tells me: "As a business leader I understand the point of capitalism... business encouragement and growth, however none of that happens without a work force that's happy, none of that happens if there's a work force that can't get to work, the transportation system's bad, or their kids aren't educated properly, or they can't get to see a doctor... A work force needs to be looked after for any business to thrive." How refreshing. open.spotify.com/episode/6W6…

So Rishi Sunak claims not to know about this in order to dodge questions, as did Jeremy Hunt. Just copying them in here (as well as having emailed and posted it to the PM) @RishiSunak @Jeremy_Hunt please share so they cannot pretend to claim they don't know.
Today I have written to the Prime Minister about the conduct of one of his members of parliament, ex-PM Liz Truss.

For the last 14 years as an NHS doctor, I have watched this party, these governments, savage the NHS into a crumbling shell of a once great institution. Deliberate, calculated, shameless destruction. Only one thing to say. Please, if you still want an NHS, do not vote Tory.

Every single Hospitality venue across the UK is being crucified or closed by untenable energy bills. Yesterday British Gas posted record profits of £751 million. 10 times the previous year of £72 million. Anyone else angry? Morning @ofgem.

Today's The Times exposes spending by @HS2ltd on everything from five-star hotels in Barcelona, to a £231,000 contract with a golf course architecture firm. The article also states that whistle-blowers have written to and submitted documents to the @UKSFO. #HS2 #StopHS2

Remembering the 250-year old Cubbington pear 🌳& the 300-year old Hunningham oak🌳 —two out of thousands of trees brutally destroyed by the #ecocidal #HS2☠️ . Shamefully, @HS2Ltd does not even know how many oak trees it has destroyed. #StopHS2 #TreesNotHS2 bylinetimes.com/2021/08/05/h…

Incidentally, let's consider for a moment the scale of this. The money being spent on HS2 is 10x the cost of refitting all England’s schools. You could use it to build 300 hospitals. Or all the social homes required in England for the next 10 years, almost ending homelessness.
