Excellent interview on bbc from Andy Burnham this morning about the unfair, discrimintory & shambolic A level results process. The government must U turn or face legal action to represent the thousands of young people affected!
Ive just been informed that I will not be involved in the Ashes series. Its been a huge privilege to support the team over the last 5 years. Id like to wish all the staff & players the very best of luck for the future. 👍🏼
On 73 occasions, Jeremy Corbyn has signed a written Parliamentary Motion condemning Iran, Russia & Syria. Today, the Tories rather predictably accuse Jeremy of being pro-Russia, pro-Iran & pro-Syria. A free & fearless press would expose their smear for what it is.

Well done

Is the world a safer place with Trump? He doesnt believe in climate change! He bullies & intimidates his neighbours & woos north korea dictator! Turns a blind eye to massive civilian casualties in Yemen whilst children who die in US custody at Mexico border are dubbed ‘aliens’!
As I wish you all a very Merry Christmas & Happy New Year, I wish to reflect on 2020. We have witnessed the trying times of a pandemic but also the work of charities continuing to provide basic necessities to those in need.
Thank you all for supporting
