FWIW, I went out chatting to voters in Runcorn several times. Yes some mentioned immigration, but more spoke about the winter fuel cuts and they were very pissed off about it.

Hi Labour, rather than learning all the wrong lessons from this election defeat - what about taking some people out of poverty and improving some lives?

For centuries, a “gossip” was a woman who attended another woman's delivery. The word was a corruption of “god-sib” or “god-sibling,” meaning “sister in the Lord.” The gossips offered support to mother and midwife. Only later did the term take on a derogatory meaning.

The DWP should also not have attempted to psychologise post-infection illness like they did twenty years ago (PACE trial) Result? We now have a much, much bigger number of people affected and there's no treatment available. The DWP - far more sinning than sinned against.

The one thing I’m willing to predict is low turnout. Spent the day in Doncaster - the one council Labour is defending in these elections. Anecdotally, every single person we spoke to was sick of all the political parties. Only a handful had voted. Disillusionment is the vibe.

This appears to be one of those fillums made at this time that was somewhat exploitational. Not quite educational but it just happens to be about a nudist camp. The sort of thing you can imagine Michael Winner directing as a young man.

Sir Keir's message to dog owners who won't scoop that poop: "For too long, your actions have gone unpunished. That ends now. We'll use drones and new tech to identify your dog. Then we'll make the dog eat its own turds while you watch the ordeal tied to a chair, naked."

If it is not clear yet, there is a disconnect in what people are experiencing, scientists are seeing, and the government's priorities. Not only in the U.S, but worldwide. If any media outlet wants to cover this scandal, I have a collection of DMs from #LongCovid patients offering me their brains.
