The Conservatives are not fit to govern. Andrea Jenkyns believes a 3rd unelected PM is the solution to the chaos they have caused. They just don’t get it.
Only Labour will tackle the cost-of-living crisis, save the NHS and get Britain’s future back. Time for a general election.
Enough is enough, I have submitted my vote of no confidence letter to the Chairman of the 1922. It is time for Rishi Sunak to go and replace him with a 'real' Conservative party leader.

I’m extremely concerned by threats made towards a Jewish Chaplin at Leeds University. The Jewish student centre, Hillel House, has also been vandalised with antisemitic graffiti.
I condemn these abhorrent acts of racism. The campus must be made safe for the Jewish community.
