Frank was a great man, I met him a couple of times. I didn't like the hate he got when he worked with the coalition - David Cameron invited him to act as a poverty tsar. Just a shame he wasn't listened to https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2010/jun/10/frank-field-labour-jobs-guarantee-coalition

There was an Iranian migrant interviewed yesterday. He'd been granted status to stay and live in Greece, but he turned it down because it meant living in a tent. He continued on to the UK because according to him "they give you houses". He can have mine, I'll happily swap for his tent

Planet is goosed. Personally I think its drifting towards the sun, aka "The Day The Earth Caught Fire" and we're not being told. I'm just glad I've got 20 years left in me tops, because I can't see the Earth having more than 50.

Silly comparison. Alcohol has positives. Smoking has absolutely none.

Classic deflection coming from the left about it. Rayner's alleged fraud is nothing compared to the Tories so its OK Red fraud = good Blue fraud = bad

Yeah, with no money to fund it. A bit like being given a mansion and then finding you can't afford to heat it or pay the council tax.
