Thousands of young people in council care sent to live more than 20 miles away from home, analysis shows. And it now costs £300,000 a year on average to provide a care home placement for a child. independent.co.uk/news/uk/ho…

And now, the end is near The Tories face the final curtain The exit poll made it clear Conservative defeat is now certain They've pinched a bucket-full Left holes on each and every highway And less, much less than this They made their lies pay Good days, they've had so few But then again, too few to mention Ignored what they had to do Shirked responsibility without exception They fought fake culture wars Flogged infrastructure off to Huawei And less, much less than this They made their lies pay Yes, there were times, I'm sure you'll mourn Like the MP caught with tractor porn After four leaders, left with just Rishi Bets on the election all very fishy You voted Labour, I've got a new neighbour Time to do things my way! #GeneralElection2024

I would like to know too…
I genuinely want to know why Diane Abbott drinking a mojito on the train caused more outrage than William Wragg compromising the security and privacy 12 of his colleagues? #WilliamWragg

This is true.
Replying to @owenjonesjourno
Keir Starmer approached Diane Abbott, conversation overhead went like this: “Let me know if there’s anything I can do” “You could restore the whip” “I understand just let me know if there’s anything..” “Restore the whip” “I understand”

I see that companies running children’s homes are stepping up their campaign against the Welsh Government for going ahead with plans to end for-profit children’s social care in Wales. This is pure self-interest, to defend the profits they earn from children in care.

The scandal of the outsourcing of children in care has echoes of the Post Office/Horizon scandal: a thousand injustices and failings that never quite add up to a front page story.

Not just £300m for Rwanda with no asylum seekers sent, under Rishi Sunak’s plan Home Secretary confirms more payments to Rwanda in 2025 & 2026 Seems it’s now more like £400m taxpayers money Govt is not just sending cheques, they’ve set up a direct debit Total Tory chaos

‘The thinner tree was cut years ago and the big one has been holding and feeding it since then. They "wake up" together in the spring and "go to sleep" together in the autumn’ Inosculation is a natural phenomenon in which parts of two different trees, commonly but not exclusively the same species, grow together, self grafting and sharing nutrients The term emanates from latin- ōsculārī, to kiss

There was a baby chimp born at The Sedgwick County Zoo, the baby had to be put on oxygen for a few days. This is a clip of it being reintroduced to its mother for the first time.
