I know I am biased but the cancer patient and the family of 4 in a one bedroom flat were both really moving. Not just applause monkey's but real examples of how Britain is broken.
The manifesto is a balance of some commitments but a lot more aspiration. There is hope in there but it needs a lot...
You are right, when asked about poverty (and I can't believe that sunak's mob didn't know they would be asked it) the answer you have is the right and sensible one.
If starter's family really did have their phone cut off the he was right to say it. He did also give the answer you wrote above.
The greens raison d'etre used to be to get into coalitions and try and influence. Twice in recent history they ended up running brighton and hove as the biggest party (never with a majority). Once with Labour and once with conservatives. Both times were unmitigated disasters.

Rhun Ap Iowerth (Plaid Cymru leader) - fairly middle. Won't have won or lost support last night
Daisy Cooper- I was surprised by her, better than I had thought she would be and...

Zelensky has issued a video of his time at the events. You will be pleased to know that the section showing him meeting his strongest alllies has him shaking hands with Keir Starmer.
Dan Hodges and Tim Montgomery both going for him now over leaving d day events for a political interview.
Tory candidates in meltdown over it.
1st he lied, then he was caught lying, then he disrespected the d day events to try and get him off his lying.
This will rumble for days, a slow...
