Please take time to remember that this important period in the Christian calendar is a time when grumpy old gobshites can post furious tweets about chocolate eggs not having the word 'Easter' on them, even though they never have.

OK, the Gorton and Denton by-election, I have some thoughts!
Let's take a look at some of the FACTS and burst a few of the more ridiculous takes doing the rounds
But first up, can we acknowledge just what bad losers Reform are?!🤣
Right, let's get started...

Racists in the UK currently feel emboldened; that should trouble us all.

I think this is the first time we’ve ever had a banner on the railings. #RemarkableBooks will be worth it. See you soon…

I've read so many posts from people assuming that all women now will just have abortions the day before they're due to give birth.
Good to read a thread with some sense.

I spoke with Prime Minister of Greece @kmitsotakis and inform him about the leaders’ summit in London.
We are working on a joint plan of action that will allow us to end the war as soon as possible, strengthen Ukraine, and develop specific security guarantees. We must move quickly and in coordination to bring about a just and lasting peace.
The plan will be strong and reflect the vision of all of Europe. The opinion of each of our partners is important to us.
Thank you for the support and readiness to continue helping Ukraine.

Let’s hope this morning that @Keir_Starmer reminds all Regional Mayors like @WestofEnglandCA that their role is full-time, as it is for MPs! Hopefully @votedannorris will hear this and take note of the @UKLabour manifesto pledge to end MPs holding two jobs!

🎉 BREAKING: The @LibDems have officially added Care Experience as a Protected Characteristic into their manifesto!
This means recognising the unique challenges faced by those for whom the state had legal responsibility as children. 🌟
A huge thank you to @EdwardJDavey for his support and understanding. When me and @ccwild79 met with Ed, he shared his personal experiences of losing his parents and being a carer for his son. It was heartbreaking. He acknowledged the difference having family support can make, a luxury many care-experienced individuals don’t have.
We are proud to see the Lib Dems leading the way, and we urge all political parties to follow suit. Let's also celebrate the 92 councils that have already passed motions to Treat Care Experience as if it were a protected characteristic until it becomes legislation.
Together, we can make a real difference! 🙌💙 #CareExperience #LibDems #Manifesto2024 #StandUpForCare

Almost two thirds of people don’t know that you can self-refer to NHS Talking Therapies online to access treatment for anxiety and depression.
You can refer yourself or talk to your GP: nhs.uk/talk.

Asylum-seekers, the homeless, protesters, strikers… they all represent the dismal failure of this Tory govt.
So, how does govt respond?
It weakens their rights, vilifies them and plots to sweep them away. It punishes those it has failed because it hates the truth they represent.

Considering a significant number of those sleeping rough are veterans and people with acquired brain injuries, this is an especially vindictive piece of nonsense
🚨NEW. Suella Braverman pushes to restrict tents for rough sleepers, and proposes making it a civil office for charities to give tents to homeless via @FT with @LOS_Fisher

I’m putting my house up for sale so I can live in a tent.
It’s a lifestyle choice.
