"My son, Jack, who was killed in this attack, would not wish his death to be used as the pretext for more draconian sentences or for detaining people unnecessarily.. R.I.P. Jack: you were a beautiful spirit who always took the side of the underdog."

- I'm tired of Tories praising firefighters, police, NHS medics, council staff and other emergency workers then cutting their pay and jobs
- The Conservatives have been in power for 12 years and Johnson's still blaming Labour at PMQs 😂
- "Rishi was born into a relatively humble beginning" - Sunak-backing Robert Jenrick Only in the Conservative Party could the son of a GP and owner of a pharmacy sent to £46,000-a-year Winchester College come from a "relatively humble" background 😃
- Tory MPs rushed back from a Conservative Winter Ball fundraiser charging £35,000 for dinner with Sunak and £22,000 karaoke with Truss to vote for poorer homeowners to sell their homes for social care after paying tax rises. Welcome to Boris Johnson’s undercutting Britain.
- Hereditary prince in a ridiculous Ruritanian uniform on a golden throne in Parliament’s unelected chamber reading out a Government’s annual plan. Welcome to modern Britain.
- Man who took on the London Bridge terrorist with a narwhal tusk is from Poland, reports The Times. One of the heroes of Borough Market 2017 was Romanian. Remember them next migrants are scapegoated as Britain’s problem
- 😂 Starmer could donate a kidney to save a life and the Mail would scream he kept one for himself.
- Why do Johnson, Sunak, Gove, Patel, etc need to raise NI £12bn to supposedly fund the NHS when they promised a £350m weekly Brexit bonus - £18.2bn - to do that? Because they lied about that too.
- Never has so much money, time and effort been wasted on making a country poorer, weaker, irrelevant and poisonous. Own your own shambles, Brextemists, and please stop blaming others
- So funny that Wetherspoon’s Brextremist bigmouth Tim Martin is now demanding more migration from Europe under a “reasonably liberal” system after he whipped up anti-EU prejudice, fuelling myths and banning European booze. Prat.
