It’s utterly ridiculous.

When he stood to be the PCC for Cleveland, Steve Turner did not tell the electorate he had a police caution for handling goods stolen from his employer.

He should never have been a candidate but once he was forced to admit it, he should have resigned.

Measles cases are rising fast in London.

This is worrying because London’s children are the LEAST vaccinated against measles.

In parts of London, the % of children who’ve had both doses of MMR is as low as 56% (the target is 95%).

I fear a major outbreak may now be inevitable.

Victoria Derbyshire to replace Laura Kuenssberg on the #bbclaurak ?

RT if you agree.

(She might actually haved asked some questions and stopped Sunak's endless lies.)

It is UNACCEPTABLE that wood from Europe’s last remaining primeval forests, sometimes from protected areas, should end up as furniture.

IKEA, clean up your supply chains!

Forget farmers, small, businesses, travellers but now Brexit and UK’s post Brexit rules are destroying that staple of the upper middle classes the au pair business surely some change is inevitable!?!? bit.ly/3Uga3Dt

Think my running journey is over...
Didn't make it2 10k as ran past a man who whistled at me & then stuck his foot out.
Couldn't dodge it fast enough so went flying.
Not sure I'll have the confidence to go out again
Being a woman feels really hard sometimes... 😔😔 #running

My favourite pastime at the moment is telling Tory voters that the public services they voted to privatise are now mostly owned by foreign governments, pension funds and companies

Pretty self explanatory.

Let's go on a journey around the world. Post me a photo of your city/town/village below.

Here's #Lincoln UK

'Dogs to be under close control at all times on reserve footpaths,' asks Norfolk Wildlife Trust to protect wildlife. The dog walker striding out at Cley Marshes had no idea what her two dogs were doing. When she did turn around, she watched one dog crap on the verge, and walked on. 1/2

Ireland has lots of Brexit benefits but possible this 👇 is the most powerful one.

“The great Brext train wreck forecast to engulf Ireland never transpired. It morphed into a sort of manageable headache. Perhaps historians will see Brexit as final confirmation that the Republic…

Omg #LauraK pushing the Rayner non-story. Yet no mention of Wraggo. I genuinely thought sending d*ck pics on Grindr, giving Tory peer numbers away so as not get blackmailed, being an actual security risk would be more important? But NO a Tory MP asking for an already proven…

Bigger things to worry about? Yes.
But there’s nothing to counterbalance the relentless bad news. No feelgood. No sense that our govt is anything other than useless, vicious and against us. Brexit Britain is just a meaner, dirtier, poorer, unhappier place.

What’s your worst-value hotel stay? I’ll start. Just emerging from the TWA hotel at New York JFK. For a room that cost more than my flight to London, I won the building site view and the right to pay £12* for a “pint” of beer in a plastic glass. (*plus service)

I've just heard my Dad's voice for the first time in 50 years.

I found these in my Grandma's record box. Dad and I made these in a wee booth in Glasgow Central Station. I sat on his knee & sang 'twinkle little star'. He's encouraging me. A voice I never thought I'd hear again.

Cath’s👇🏼filmed one of her red mason bees emerging. These are small (up to 1.4cm) gingery solitary bees that are literally POTTERS-the females make nests from tiny blobs of clay in hollow dry stems & bee hotels. I adore these little crafter bees. Wonderful footage from Cath:

Being British is having your own one name for a bread roll and thinking all the others are just silly.
