Anyone listening to the fiction being spouted by the Tory Party's Page 3 girl, Energy Secretary Claire Coutinho? They are the party of renewables, apparently. The party that banned onshore wind and reduced investment and support for solar, wind and biomass just a short time ago. Indeed, without Scotland's renewable energy, the UK's renewables sector and move to net zero would be very shoddy indeed. They are the party of the environment, apparently. The party that has overseen the worst pollution of water and air in recent history. The party that will roll back environmental protections leading to more polluted waters to build more houses. The party that will put 5 more years of pollution into the atmosphere by allowing petrol and diesel cars to be sold til 2035. They are the party of energy security, apparently. THIS MY FRIENDS IS THE BIG LIE. More exploration of the North Sea will not give this country more energy security - we already sell 80% of the oil extracted from existing fields. I see no move to build more refineries. That means 100% of any new exploitation will be sold. It will give us no energy security. But it will give the Treasury more money, to spend lining Tory pockets. Jeez! Also, no word on HS2 from Sunak. The North has been betrayed. The country has been betrayed. The young of today will live on the new, smaller UK and be the first to live in a desert, at this rate.

Theresa Kufuor, former First Lady of Ghana from 2001 to 2009, has died aged 87. Her husband, former President John Kufuor is still alive. He is the first Ghanaian president to outlive his wife.

Come to think about it, his name was- It was you?! Damn.

Inspired write up for Dianne Feinstein!!! Cheered me up as a diversion from the procession of Voldemort Horcruxes at the Tory Conference.

Cant believe he made it to 99... If he lives to 2024 I'd seriously question the IQ of the committee if he isnt at no. 1 spot

Pavarotti does not deserve to run away with this. Get over yourselves. Futile exercise to try saving it now but I'd just like to say Justify My Love is one of my fave Madonna songs.

We've just done the entire S4 (final season) of Sex Education in one big long sitting. OH was very dubious beforehand and I had an open mind but didn't know what to expect of it. We both adored it. So many genuinely powerful and emotional moments this series, but the writers know exactly when to throw in a moment of levity just enough to bring you back up again. Tears one moment, laughter the next. It is a joyous world to be immersed in and you get so, so attached to so many of the characters that you yearn to be there, in their world. What a series. What a show. I can't wait to escape reality for a bit and watch it all start to finish again. I also wish the show was around when I was secondary school age. It'd have helped me and countless other adolescents a great deal.

His death certificate reveals he died of prostate cancer that spread to his bones. Seriously, why can't people just explain in a sentence what the link they've decided to post entails? Do y'all work for these media companies and need the clicks?

Yes. See below:

I hope he gets to his 100th. If there is anyone out of the 45 people that have been President of the USA who deserves to get to that milestone it's him. And I love how back in February everybody here was getting ready for the inevitable yet here he is...still with us.

Well Played Mr. Carter!
