Jenrick. The answer to a question no one is asking. What a sad excuse for a human being, let alone a politician
@
Don't talk to Jenrick. He's a dishonest poltician
@
Wes Streeting, honestly where's the experience in defence, defence against the dark arts?
@
Very poor Cabinet selection

A Chancellor that is focused on buying bombs and Mahmood who hates increasing our workforce

Rough sleeping is complex involving mental health issues and addiction. He should set up a multidisciplinary team. But most people certainly want to see an end to people struggling on the street

Wes Streeting is the Secretary of State for Defence. Yes, really. Not quite sure what to do with this information but I'm certain it's an omen of something quite bad.
@
We should never have had homelessness and poverty in the country.
@
A chancellor who resigned 1 month ago because he wanted starver to give 10 billion more to the defence? The guy is given the chancellor job????
He did not resign to help the poor, the homeless, the dusabled and the elderly?

He resigned for more death machines for defence. Is he also pro izzy and a friend of izzy group?
@
Andy couldn't even sort Piccadilly Gardens out, what makes anyone thing he can succeed running an entire country??
@
Ask any Labour hack and they'll always say the best person was chosen for the job. Not great journalism...

How can he give Cabinet positions to tax evaders and crooks. Just shows the mentality and corruption of these politicians!
@

What’s the difference between Andy Burnham and a flying pig? The letter F.
@
