I’m a conservative. I voted for Ronald Reagan twice, for GW Bush twice, for John McCain, Mitt Romney, & Nikki Haley. I’m voting for #KamalaHarris because we need to defend the free world and can’t do it with a corrupt treasonous Putin-allied lunatic pervert in the White House.

Q. “Do you believe if Donald Trump were elected next year, that he would try to stay in office beyond a second term? That he would never leave office?” Liz Cheney: “There’s no question… Absolutely. He’s already done it once.” (April 2023)

Full resignation letter from FCDO British diplomat Mark Smith:

I was asked for some thoughts on UCAS personal statement writing for someone who saw themselves as more of a performer than a writer. Here’s what I said to The Stage’s John Byrne:

Tonight in Parliament we passed the Bill to bring rail back into public ownership. This is the beginning of the end for the rip-off, privatised rail system. After decades of failure, it's great that we are going to get a rail system that puts the public before private profit!
