Thanks to Rev Jenkins for reminding us of the best input into Today this week on the deplorable state of adult social care
by Louise Casey.

For me her best words were "Government is taking responsibility for the country you run"

Wow talking about Adult social care must be a slow news day. Louise Casey saying the right things.

Social care. 'Government is taking responsibility for the country you run' Louise Casey. Does as anyone have a huge parliamentary majority?

I'm 61 in my lifetime none has acted decisively. It's a national disgrace and people's families are paying the price.

US signals U-turn on naval convoys to restart Hormuz transits <p>The US had ruled out naval protection for tankers transiting the Strait of Hormuz on Monday, according to industry officials. By Tuesday evening US President Donald Trump had reversed that call offering Navy escorts β€œas soon as possible” and financial guarantees for maritime trade</p> <div>&nbsp;</div>

"US President Donald Trump signalled that the US navy was ready to offer security escorts for tankers transiting the Strait of Hormuz... less than 24 hours after Navy officials told shipping industry representatives that there was β€œno chance” of escorts happening any time soon."

Alex as others using the phrase 'insurgency' parties a negative phrase. New might be a better phrase.
Mainstream medias idea of what's happening inadequate. To an extent Greens are labelled as a problem and not a solution to the problem and their policies not taken seriously.

Their polls are lowering though so May could be less bad in Reform terms than it appeared a few months ago. (fear I may be quoted on this)

Be interesting to see how Nick and Justin cope with the Green victory.

Can they imagine some new kind of politics? They might have to change the way they do their jobs

Great news - if you have a vote in the #GortonAndDenton byelection, it has stopped raining and you still have 2 hours to Vote to keep Reform (AKA the failed has-been tories) out of your back yard!
