And footage has been unearthed from the previous Housing Secretary, Eric Pickles telling the inquiry chair to hurry up his proceedings as he has some very important meetings with some very important people.

It's all over for Starmer - the day I never thought would happen.

 

Vorderman having a go at Labour!

He's been 8 weeks in Government why the hell hasn't he sorted out the NHS, smashed the trafficking gangs, got the national debt down, sorted law and order out.
