The Grenfell Inquiry report explicitly stated that the Coalition govt’s attack on red tape meant “even matters affecting the safety of life were ignored, delayed or disregarded”. @David_Cameron's attempt to claim otherwise is politics at its very worst. theguardian.com/uk-news/articl…

The Teeswork Freeport corruption in short. 2 businessmen paid £110 for a £100m site. We paid £462m to clean it up they paid nothing They made £100m selling scrap metal from clean up, we received nothing. Michael Gove covers it up. Time for a real investigation.

Yesterday, five people were imprisoned under the draconian new Tory laws for between 4 and 5 years, for entirely peaceful protest. Longer than many offenders get for major violent crimes. My column this week calls for Labour to repeal those laws. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Looking back on 14 years of the Tories is like looking back at the traumatising post-vindaloo shit you just did in the toilet.

Nike’s aim is to make waves and make money and they’ve done that successfully with “playful” desecration of the Cross of St George on the home shirt. That’s what Nike do. @FA far guiltier. They should have principles. They’re supposed to respect England. But they didn’t consult…

Jessie was one of Ruby’s best mates. In year 10 they hatched a plan to one day be PM & Deputy PM. In year 11 they were appointed head girl & deputy head girl at their school, @TCSDulwich - & they joked that this was the first step on their path to #10 🧵1/n

The recent publication of Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer's tax returns demonstrated the large difference between the UK rate of capital gains tax (20% or 28%), and the UK rate of tax on employment income (up to 47%). How unusual is this in an international context?

Car crash stuff from Tory chairman Ric Holden here. "It's not been edited, it's been clipped." "That's exactly the same thing." "No, it's actually quite different." "I work in audio production, Mr Holden."

Having read the report into Teesworks it’s hugely concerning to see such mismanagement, shady practices and a complete lack of value from taxpayer money. Worse still, the PR campaign from the TV Mayor completely ignoring this disgraceful reflection of his performance and conduct.
