- I’m joining @trusselluk.bsky.social in calling on the government to rethink its cruel, shameful & completely irresponsible plan to cut benefits which will plunge 250,000 people, including 50,000 children into poverty - on its own impact analysis This is how you can help youtu.be/XrX4dF3wqt0?...
- It's the implication that it's one big jolly living on benefits, that gets me. I got my P60 a week or so ago. £9.5k. Given that if I could work, on minimum wage, I'd be on £25k, it should be obvious to them that I'm not doing this for the cash.

- There are several current cabinet ministers who would not have been out of place in the previous government- Streeting, Kendall and Cooper being the 3 main ones.
