@campbellclaret Gutted that he didn’t call a General Election. The speech was I think about wedge politics and extremism but his own party has done some of the stoking. The majority of folk in our country are kind, welcoming and decent but we really need a government that shares our values.

Watching @NetflixScoop and wondering why Andrew isn’t formally known as a Prince! How come he’s not been stripped of his title? His free home? Our tax money? Thoughts go to the victims and survivors of crime. Terrible. Heartbreaking. #ScoopNetflix #PrinceAndrew @BBCNewsnight

@LouHaigh Took me 7 hours to get from Doncaster to Liverpool by train yesterday. To drive it’s 2 hours from my door. Cancelled trains. Overcrowded trains. Mucky toilets. Staff overwhelmed. Staff treated like 💩 I’m done with trains. The North is broken.

@_JackJazz So what you’re saying is that he should have stayed poor right? His parents should have made him stay in his station? So I should still live in poverty, but a good Labour government made my life chances better so I could escape poverty. Is that what you’re saying?

Because of Covid there were lengthy queues and all the other Shadow Ministers at the time went straight to the front of the queues. Not Rachel though. She queued with the rest of us.
