Michelle Mone can be expelled from the House of Lords by a simple majority vote in the Commons, and then in the House of Lords. Like if she needs to go. RT if she has to go.

At this point it’s hard not to conclude that Rishi Sunak is trying to throw the election as badly as possible. Possibly as part of some sort of spread betting scheme.

Happy to say I'm working with @BylineTimes and @BylineTV to bring you regular films. This is about our @nationaltrust and the right wing Tufton St set trying to get their hands on it. I've been a member of the National Trust for many years. It has 50,000 volunteers and 5 million members. It's the biggest conservation charity in Europe and is one of the largest landowners in the UK with over 620,000 and 780 miles of our coastline under its protection ....so obviously the right wing Tufton St pack want to get their hands on it. How? Through a company called Restore Trust - an opaquely funded "Tufton St set" organisation which has been attempting to get some of their ilk onto the National Trust Board. Of course they have. They've been on all the usual right wing media talking about how "woke" the National Trust is. Jaysus let's please not hear that word after we've seen off the Conservatives for ever at the next election. Jacob Rees Mogg thinks Restore Trust is marvellous, which kind of says all you need to know. They've failed to get their board candidates voted in for 3 consecutive years now. Long may that pattern continue 👍🏼👍🏼 Restore Trust puts out a lot of misinformation...so if ever you read anything of theirs, please treat it with extreme caution... Pls watch this short video and follow @bylinetimes and @bylinetv for news you won't see much of elsewhere. Publishing without fear or favour. ❤️❤️

If you want to help your local pub, bar, restaurant, live music venue, theatre etc…make them aware of the below. We’re about to claw back money they paid under duress. A national scandal that we think could be as big as the PPI scandal. All happened on ⁦@ofgem⁩ watch.

Important message from a journalist who, sadly, cannot speak out because of his contract of employment.

NEW: Now the commentators have said they won’t doing Match of the Day. So no presenter. No pundits. No commentators. And suggestion players/managers may not do interviews. Hard to see how there’s any programme at all.
As commentators on MOTD, we have decided to step down from tomorrow night’s broadcast. We are comforted that football fans who want to watch their teams should still be able to do so, as management can use World Feed commentary if they wish.

Gary Lineker suspended by the BBC for upsetting the Conservatives because he stood up for some of the most vulnerable people in the world. The same BBC whose chairman gave the Conservatives £400,000 before helping to arrange an £800,000 loan for Boris Johnson

Everybody knows what Match of the Day means to me, but I’ve told the BBC I won’t be doing it tomorrow. Solidarity.
