As backbench Tories vote for their freedom to get infected by

At last some acknowledgement that Bexit is in large part responsible for the present state of UK politics. Saddled with a bunch of second rate Brexit-supporting politicians

I'm blown away by your response to the shout out for followers. Thank you. I guess there are lots of people out there who really want rid of this rotten govt which is heartening

candidate in the West End by-election Disappointed to lose but we can hold up our heads for running a positive and decent campaign against relentless negativity from the Tories. Huge thanks to all who supported 🌹
I've always loved the story of how the Manchester mill workers stood in solidarity with the freed slaves in the US Civil War despite the huge suffering it caused them

Keir Starmer right to accuse Govt of "industrial scale" partying In response to Sophie Raworth grilling over him drinking ONE beer while at a constituency meeting. No comparison

If a Labour Prime Minister and Labour Chancellor were on holiday during an economic crisis like this the Daily Mail, Telegraph, Express, Sun et al would have helicopters with cameras over their vacation homes.
So Chief Whip & Deputy Chief Whip are still in post. Are you keeping up? Truss isn't running the country, she's not even running the Tory Party. Time to go

Thank you for the follows lovely Twitter people. Heartening to know there are many like-minded folk who want to get this morally bankrupt Govt out

comparing the nation's economy to a household budget is just plain wrong & another way of saying ordinary people have to bear the brunt of the Tories' mismanagement of the economy

"Mis-chararcterised these events" for people who were working "incredibly hard"
@BorisJohnson
says about the rule-breaching parties. The people who are working incredibly hard are the NHS whom you don't deem worthy of more than a 3% pay rise.

saying there will be more austerity in the form of 'efficiencies'? Sounds like it. What's needed is a wealth tax,not cuts to already struggling public services

Great to join so many MPs &

🌹6000 rent control homes
🌹1300 more police

🌹Free school meals made permanent

We’re delighted to announce that our newest housing office will be opening in Soho later this month 🏠
We already have 7 housing offices across the city, where residents can speak face-to-face with housing staff about anything from repairs issues to support needs or help
Tory MPs with any shred of decency should do the right thing for the country & get rid of

So vote of no confidence happening tonight.
