So, the monsoon season has hit the south coast. Rain in biblical proportions.
Congratulations to my 2 eldest grandsons: 1 got the grades to study marine biology at the university of his choice and the other one smashed his GCSEs.
If there's a way to make it about immigration, I'll find it.
BBC slammed over pushing Reform UK propaganda yet again Overly eager to air Reform's latest press conference, the BBC displayed an empty podium for the better part of an hour. What the hell was this??? www.thecanary.co/trending/202...

Very decent of the BBC to report our £50bn savings claim as though it's a fact, rather than the made up load of old bollocks that it actually is.
I really urge you to give Emma’s music a follow and a listen. Being a musician is not easy these days and it would be great if you could give a fellow Villan a bit of support 👍

We currently spend about £123bn on benefits for working age people, so our proposed saving of £50bn would be a massive cut of 40%. In my Clacton constituency about 47% of working age people are not employed, so my plan is to decimate the income of nearly half of my constituents.
Let me fix that headline for you, BBC News: "Reform UK Tries to get Humiliating Clacton By-Election Off The Front Page With Outrageous, Uncosted Policy Ragebait"

As Britain swelters through another heatwave, few people will have heard that ministers have quietly dropped plans for solar carports. Cars cooler in summer. Shelter from the rain in winter. Clean electricity all year round. A missed opportunity?

Ofcom, the Met, Parliament need to take a look at coverage like this from Pearson and The Telegraph after the Jason Arday tragedy. Unconscionable bile. #r4today
In the West Bank villages, a new Israeli order enables settler attacks while claiming to prevent them. Right- Israeli rabbi, Eliyahu Mali, says to "KILL EVERYONE IN GAZA, INCLUDING BABIES"!
Farage claiming that he beat the establishment candidate is a little wild.
