Keir Starmer goes on struggling first time buyers at #PMQs - saying it costs average first time buyer an extra £9k to raise deposit, taking them four years. “Or to put it in terms the PM will understand, roughly the annual bill to heat your swimming pool”.

🚨Culture Wars Latest: Censoring UK’s most trusted voice on nature is shocking dereliction of BBC’s duty to public service broadcasting. It CANNOT allow truth on nature depletion to be victim in cynical culture wars stoked by populist Ministers #WildIsles theguardian.com/media/2023/mar…

Instead of backing 1000s of green jobs & sustainable, long-term economic revival, Govt has backed a climate-busting, backward-looking, stranded asset coal mine. The decision to greenlight this mine is a climate crime against humanity - & we must challenge it every step of the way

We're seeing a "climate crime against humanity." Green Party MP Caroline Lucas MP tells @krishgm, "I've never been as desperate as I feel right now," as a new coal mine in Cumbria gets the go-ahead.

Gove doesn't just need a bollocking for being unable to even read out a Ministerial statement properly. He needs one for giving the greenlight to this climate crime of a coal mine in the first place. #kickoutcoal

I'm told Speaker gave Gove "a bollocking" behind the Chair. Gove insisted it wasn’t a ministerial code breach but source says clerks told him in no uncertain terms that it is. Gove had prepped a short 2 min speech (for an Urgent Q) + ad libbed to turn it into a statement

A source who was present at a dinner attended by hedge-fund managers a week ago revealed: “They were all supporters of Truss and every one of them was shorting the pound.” How the 'Biscotti Budget' came to be, w/ @ShippersUnbound & @cazjwheeler thetimes.co.uk/article/biscot…

This isn't Conservative MPs suddenly realising the person they made Prime Minister is an amoral, lying, arrogant, nasty piece of work. It's Conservative MPs realising that their own political careers are at risk unless they abandon him. It's naked self-interest, nothing more.

Boris Johnson's time is up: His lying, lawbreaking and arrogance has finally caught up with him. Me on @BBCCWR this afternoon:

Ugh, train strikes – this Labour government has to go. <Touches earpiece> Ah, I have just been informed that the Tories have actually been in power for 12 years.

Thanks to all who have written to me following Parl today. Due to the volume of correspondence I can't reply to everyone but all the views you have shared are valued. Truth and decency must always remain at heart of our politics. They are values that we must never give up on.


Been with Spotify since 2014. Had a family account since 2017. All cancelled now. It was hard to justify their artist payments. This anti-vax rhetoric was the final push I needed.

Word of the day is 'roundaboutation' (19th century): bloviating or evasive talk that focuses on everything but the subject in hand.
