We do but unfortunately Reform have shown that is not always what you get. At least career politicians have some form of experience and skills for the job.

No way he attacked a man, thought he just got off on attacking women? Lock him up.

Who would have thought these are all Artificial AI centres, just like those promised by Houchen. ๐Ÿ˜ The sooner the AI bubble bursts the better.

If we are such a huge Christian nation as Deform claim then there wouldn't be any empty churches to need protective status

They had a bigger one on the Norton Road roundabout yesterday, had to chuckle.

Fossil fuels allow the sellers to fix the price worldwide so can control the price and their profits. Renewable would be more local based so less chance to charge excessive prices, we just need to make sure in the UK that the renewable sources are government owned.

Who would have thought the company that mismanaged the teachers pension scheme would be able to manage the civil service scheme. Who did they lobby to get the contract and why keep giving government contracts to companies with previous poor records like Capita and Fujitsu?

While he draws up the law to remove him can he also include Michelle Mone?

Public ownership of water is the only way to deliver security, efficiency, investment and value for money 37 years of privatisation has been a disaster

England's water companies have 1,200 criminal convictions.

They lose a trillion litres of water to leaky pipes. Dump sewage in rivers for 4m hours. Customers fleeced.

None has its licence revoked. No exec prosecuted. Corporate fines are not collected

Whatever happened to democracy, rule of law?

Either he doesn't understand or he is bluffing. With Trump and his cronies both are equally as likely.

Don't think at this point we need a winger, who will he replace? Our highest goalscorer? We need a proper centre forward and possibly a reliable injury free centre back. Can see us looking at a winger in summer as expect us to cash in on Whittaker if continues with recent form.

The tech firms in lots of cases already have age limits that they cannot and do not wish to police so how will a ban be effective? You need to scrutinise, police and punish them as well as the people posting dangerous content.

Why don't they just enforce current rules and ensure the social media platforms do the same? What Musk et Al have proven is that the owners cannot be trusted with policing themselves. Every measure they use to enforce a ban can be circumvented.

Desperately need a proper centre forward as a few decent balls in dangerous areas and no centre forward to be seen

Another nothing player, not a striker and not a midfielder. Too much deadwood that needs clearing.

How quickly have #boro reverted back to scrappy Carrickball? Woeful. 2 strikers, 1 creative midfielder or winger and another centre back desperately needed before the early promise fizzles out.

Shows how poor the Tories are when an idiot like Vickers holds such a position. The man is a rude idiot, I agree that Lewis should come up to Teesside and see how bad the jobs market really is and how many jobs promised by Vickers and Houchen never materialise

Very hypocritical considering the civil service has allowed comprised hours for years. Obviously too scared of the optics from the right whingers.

#pmq's is embarrassing, it's like listening to an argument between Ant and Dec's "joke" writers. Time for MP'S to start behaving like serious politicians as so many issues need resolving.

If they lose the unions they will just get funding from the same trough as Deform and Tory. Labour is in huge danger of dying and becoming irrelevant like the Tories.
