Everything you always wanted to know about Voter ID (but were afraid to ask); A handy guide For example did you know that student ID is 👎 but proof of age PASS card is 👍? Or that you can use a passport *even if expired*? Please share far and wide. ~AA bestforbritain.org/confused_about…
The #tacticalvote for the Police and Crime Commissioner for Devon and Cornwall is LABOUR. X Daniel Steel stopthetories.vote/pcc/devon-and-…
Today the #TeessideResistance went on tour. We don’t believe the polls. We believe the people. Vote for change May 2nd #BinBen
26.4.24 Plymouth Freeport provided a range of requested documents via FOI, incl. original Freeport Bid (they state it will soon be on their website). At last some transparency - but also more Qs, incl. why has my council been so unable to provide them? A 🧵 @AnnAubert3 @wshed
I'm working through the docs & what has/hasn’t been disclosed. Bid rationale for the 75km Dartmoor boundary seems very weak - it even looks like it could be an error? Or was it extended from 45km to 75km by UK Gov itself after Bid submission? 🧵@rbrooks45 @WCountryVoices
We've had another damp day here in West #Devon. #Mayday is tomorrow, which seems an appropriate hashtag in all the circumstances. The @EnvAgencySW has enabled #PollutionRisk warnings for most if not all #Devon & #Cornwall designated bathing beaches... #EndSewagePollution! 1/n
Seems pretty likely that the Conservatives have accepted more of Hester’s money. Otherwise, why wouldn’t Holden just say “no”? So, the translation appears to me to be: “Yes, we have taken his millions, but don’t want to talk about it before the local elections.” Just awful. ~AA

Ah yes, good old @thameswater killing yet another chalk stream, the River Kennet in Marlborough. And the @EnvAgency do what exactly?

Ugly moment for the Tory Chairman on whether they've accepted millions more from Frank Hester AFTER scandalous comments surfaced. RH: "I've got no problem answering questions on this." JC: "Well, answer them then." RH: "Any donations will be declared normally in due course." ~AA
Despite several minutes of Tory MP Richard Holden obfuscation, they’ve clearly accepted another £5m from Frank Hester That’s this Frank Hester… #PoliticsLive
5 reasons to show up and vote tactically at the local elections. The last is the most important.
This evening, on your way home, don’t pick up the Standard out of habit. And if you’re at one of the stations where someone hands it out, tell them why it’s a “no, thank you”. Leave them piled high to be returned. Let them see their circulation drop. Please share. #BoycottES

The UN produced a highly-critical report into the UK governments failures, accusing them of demonising disabled people and treating them as “undeserving citizens” by preparing slash disability benefits. Exhibit no 2,000,005 Why are the media so silent??? FFS!!!!
🚨#TeesFreeport: It's a steel! Are the dodgy deals with his mates going to bite @BenHouchen on the arse? Fingers crossed🤞🏼 #TeesValley VOTERS, don't fall victim to his corruption on Thursday. #BinBen #HouchenOut #TeesValleyMayor 💻private-eye.co.uk/news via @PrivateEyeNews

We've had another damp day here in West #Devon. #Mayday is tomorrow, which seems an appropriate hashtag in all the circumstances. The @EnvAgencySW has enabled #PollutionRisk warnings for most if not all #Devon & #Cornwall designated bathing beaches... #EndSewagePollution! 1/n
Seems pretty likely that the Conservatives have accepted more of Hester’s money. Otherwise, why wouldn’t Holden just say “no”? So, the translation appears to me to be: “Yes, we have taken his millions, but don’t want to talk about it before the local elections.” Just awful. ~AA
Ugly moment for the Tory Chairman on whether they've accepted millions more from Frank Hester AFTER scandalous comments surfaced. RH: "I've got no problem answering questions on this." JC: "Well, answer them then." RH: "Any donations will be declared normally in due course." ~AA
Ah yes, good old @thameswater killing yet another chalk stream, the River Kennet in Marlborough. And the @EnvAgency do what exactly?
Marlborough's most famous manhole made to tonight'episode of ITV NEWS WEST COUNTRY. The underwater camera shows what hundreds of hours of untreated 💩 pouring from this burst manhole has done to the riverbed of the Kennet, coating what should be clean gravels. #chalkstream
I've a feeling that Jo Coburn knows for certain that the Conservatives *have* received a further £5 million pounds from Frank Hester. #politicslive

Despite several minutes of Tory MP Richard Holden obfuscation, they’ve clearly accepted another £5m from Frank Hester That’s this Frank Hester… #PoliticsLive
5 reasons to show up and vote tactically at the local elections. The last is the most important.
This evening, on your way home, don’t pick up the Standard out of habit. And if you’re at one of the stations where someone hands it out, tell them why it’s a “no, thank you”. Leave them piled high to be returned. Let them see their circulation drop. Please share. #BoycottES
Is there anything more cynical than the Evening Standard, pretending to be vaguely progressive every day, to not piss off its readership, but always SOMEHOW arriving at the position of endorsing the Tory candidate every 4 years - even a dangerous and racist climate-change-denier?
The UN produced a highly-critical report into the UK governments failures, accusing them of demonising disabled people and treating them as “undeserving citizens” by preparing slash disability benefits. Exhibit no 2,000,005 Why are the media so silent??? FFS!!!!
You have to provide a lot of evidence - my application included scan reports, prescriptions, letters confirming diagnosis and surgery, chemo appointment cards... they make you jump through hoops.. the idea thatbyou get ££££ for saying you "feel a bit poorly" is a barefaced lie
Welfare secretary Mel Stride says people with depression or anxiety could lose sickness benefits as the system should not be paying them to deal with the “ordinary difficulties of life”. Has he ever needed - or tried to access - mental health support? theguardian.com/politics/2024/…

Since I have a few international followers who for some odd reason don't read Finnish, here's a brief recap of the latest act in the Finnish edition of the familiar farce/tragedy "when the populist, radical right rises to power." A thread! 1/
I promised myself -and you- that I will post this excellent Tweet of the brilliant @danielgoyal every day until the Local Elections on Thursday. This is spot on. 🎯 Because this shows in one statement the core and toxic nature of the Tories and stands as an example (of the…
