It must be obvious to all and sundry by now that the billionaire @elonmusk is a complete moron and fuckwit!

Morning! Labour is the only Party to have had a stall on Redhill Market every Saturday of this campaign (Greens were here a few weeks ago, Tories never and Lib Dems have been absent too). Labour can win here. It's close, but we need your vote otherwise you'll get a Tory MP

Labour will ensure that there is a breakfast club at every primary school across the area so every child can focus on learning and not their tummy! Ensure change in #reigate. Vote for Stuart Brady on 4th July.

Labour will nationalise the railways at no cost to the public to improve our essential train services. I want better links, better disabled access and a proper link up to Oyster for railways in our area. #reigate #redhill #banstead #tattenhamcorner

We rapidly need to tackle the climate emergency. Labour will implement Great British Energy, a new, publicly-owned clean energy company which will harness Britain’s sun, wind and wave energy to rapidly decarbonise our economy and lower our energy bills.


The Israeli leaders and government are murders and need to be condemned by the international community and prosecuted for the war criminals they clearly are!

Currently hugely enjoying Grace Dent’s @gracedent’s truly touching ‘memoir’ “Hungry”. As a a working class ‘“oik” from Essex who made it to university and then edited Food Manufacture magazine for 17 years, it touches many nerves … what a wonderful writer and person 😀


What a disappointment! I ordered a 3-litre Sambucus Nigra (Black Lace) from Sarah Raven @srkitchengarden which arrived today and cost £34.90 (incl. delivery) And this is the really sorry specimen that was delivered!!! Such poor value for money 😟

Kent family charged £80k in error after EDF sent £1m electricity bill … so, not just us being overcharged by energy supply companies ⁦@RobynVinter⁩ ⁦@OVOEnergytheguardian.com/business/2022/…


Re: my previous post, in response to my electricity meter submissions, @OVOEnergy had responded that there was nothing wrong with them and asked whether I had used more electricity on that day. £764.08 for one day compared with £3-4 normally. Really?!?

My reply to @OVOEnergy: ‘No, I don’t have a steelmaking electric arc furnace in the garden!!! It’s a cock-up by OVOEnergy following a DCC smart meter software change that was implemented on about 20 October, according to the person at OVO I spoke to last week (see attached).
