What ARE Tory MPs up to asks Matthew Parris? Are they a different, ideological, unanchored breed - not the rooted, local worthies of old? And he recalls how his own moment of risk taking as a #Tory MP ended 🥊 😮 #r4today #ToryScandal #MarkMenzies

Losing the Whip @elenicourea on the 18 MPs sitting as independents What they've said or done has led to suspension from their party inc Tories (8) or Labour (7 inc Jeremy Corbyn). #r4today #LVIPolitics #Corbyn #TorySleaze #MarkMenzies #Antisemitism theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
"Would you sponsor me to run the marathon? I'm hoping to raise £5,000 for my MP to give to 'bad people'" Matt on the curious #MarkMenzies scandal 🤔😮😂 #ToryScandal #TorySleaze #RishiSunak #r4today
"I said: isn't that already a crime? It wasn't." When @LolaHornsey was asked to put down an amendment to a bill in 2009, she was surprised to learn that forced labour was not illegal at that time. Her efforts helped lead to the introduction of the Modern Slavery Act in 2015.

🚨MUST watch🚨 Even though this Tory MP reported Angela Rayner to the police, he can’t actually say what crime she’s committed. 🤯
The Tories' overall majority is now just 43 (down from 80 following the 2019 general election).

Whatever, they are very different and now it is those on the right have become more ideological, whereas, those on the left less so.
@politicsastar The 'good news: My wife recently managed to book a GP appointment. The bad news: Between booking and the appointment is about a one month waiting time.
@politicsastar This is gut wrenching, our story is 💯 this...too sick to access help, it's desperate #SunakOut
Fox Lane Books will be 5 years old on the 25th April. How should we celebrate? 🙌 Bonus points, competition, goody bags? All three? Or something else 🤔
@politicsastar Well that was “the plan” … discredit the Sturgeons, bring in a man who would end up being extremely unpopular and bingo ! Labour have Scotland …. So obvious even I spotted it…. Embezzlement…. That and the honeypot its the oldest trick in the book.
@politicsastar @JLPartnersPolls Hope it doesn't affect Me, just under 4 years to go. #GTTO .
People told me that as I got older I would become more Tory. Strangely it has gone the other way and I now see that Trotsky might have had the right idea 🤣.... dear old John Beverley would be proud of me.
The crossover age frmo voting #Labour to #Tory is now 70 says @JLPartnersPolls!! Some stunning information here on age and voting behaviour for #LVIPolitics #GE2024
@politicsastar Definitely worse. Much worse in severity. Lots of the ‘97 cases wouldn’t even happen now or be cared about because of the social climate now. More the sort of ‘end of days’ feel and the willingness of the right wing media to highlight these examples as they’re jumping ship.
@UKverifried @politicsastar @rafaelbehr Growth, and then it would be up to the government of the day to decide how it uses the extra resources at its disposal.
@RichMusgrave @politicsastar @rafaelbehr Is growth or distribution the main problem? With the UK one of the most unequal countries in Europe then how would growth address the problems arising from inequality?
On the 26th April 2024, 917 years worth of experience (32people) leave my department of Carbodies (welding) at Alstom Derby. This is due to the UK not having a long term rail strategy which has left us without any workload. #alstomderby @AlstomUK @LouHaigh @Mark_J_Harper
Cutting trains within the north, between berwick, Morpeth. Newcastle etc down to Manchester in order to allow an extra train per hour to london ? Who’d have thought this levelling up (not) govt would do that 🤣
More Government rail chaos. Chronic underinvestment in capacity issues on the East Coast mainline are coming home to roost. A timetable change adding London trains is shelved by Network Rail. We told them it wouldn’t work and shock, there’s no plan! chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-eas…
I am baffled by the court ruling today. “Can you find me a quiet place to pray at lunch; I won’t be missing any lessons?” This is a reasonable request and so very easy to accommodate - schools all over the country do so. It should never have become an issue.
Lord Ashcroft has tried to create a shitstorm around Angela Rayner over unproven allegations concerning £1,5k. But when you try and question him about avoiding taxes worth millions of pounds, he hides in the toilet... #bbclaurak
@politicsastar It tells you how close both parties are politically. Many feel alienated by that.
Praying for our bishops as they speak ‘truth to power’, stand up for the weak, and compassionately work within the political structures of our country. 🙏🙏🙏
“Climate change & global events have exposed the vulnerability of relying on imported goods.” This afternoon in the @UKHouseofLords, @BishopNewcastle asks the government what plans they have in place to ensure food security. #Farming #UKFarming #FoodSecurity
If Liz Truss hates Blair so much she should debate him and find out how well that works out for her
Just received ballot papers for postal voting in the local elections. Can anyone explain to me how this is permitted? “Conservative Candidate - More Police, Safer Streets” Do different rules apply to Conservatives? (Rhetorical question!). Why can’t they play fair even on basics?
Bravo, @SkyNews and bravo, @KamaliMelbourne. This is what news should be like. Debunk the nonsense, no matter how often it comes up. Politicians have sussed out that if they repeat a lie enough times, journalists get tired of correcting it. ~AA #TrumpTrial
