"Of course we keep these things under review. But if you look at petrol prices oil prices today, they're 24% lower than they were yesterday," she said
Meanwhile, our decision to put a 19 year old in charge of a council is working out very well.

“We’ve cut your taxes by raising them”????
This is Trump level delusion
Are people really so thick as to fall for that?
GREAT NEWS!
A special task force of elderly bald men, smelling of chives and armed with small penises, has arrived to liberate Dubai from the Iranian onslaught!

Sir, we've used up all our bombs and missiles and everyone still wants to see the unredacted Epstein files.
Israel is the center of Global Terrorism and everyone knows it.
Imagine the reaction from Trump if The IDF did this to American citizens.
The biggest terrorist in the world did this.
Pass the Milk of Amnesia tablets to Nige.
“Never once did Reform promise to cut council tax” insists an angry Nigel Farage to Sky News.
Here's some of the leaflets Reform have been putting out ahead of the local elections
Is it safe for the King, a head of state to visit any country where heads of state are threatened?
We need to think of the King's safety as we would think of anyone else's.
I am sure that the POTUS will understand our concerns for our King.
Safety first, and on this occasion, the King's safety.
A reminder that Nigel Farage, Kemi Badenoch and the entire Conservative-supporting press have spent the past week lambasting Keir Starmer for not joining the Iran war.
Here's what has happened since then to public opinion
Well said Carol. Hoping you will stand for Parliament!
Carol Vorderman criticises Labour for wasting their tactical vote victory, slams Nigel Farage, and praises the Greens's Hannah Spencer

Reform's version of BoJo - neither accustomed to detailed fact checking.
Trump has ignited the Middle East with his attack on Iran.
Not so long ago Farage said ‘the Trump presidency made the world a better and safer place.’
It’s pretty clear that Farage doesn’t possess good judgement. 🤷♂️
A wind turbine will generate 27x more energy than it takes to build.
A solar panel will generate 40x more energy.
Neither use any fuel.
There is already infinite energy generators.
Well done Nige. Another cunning plan paying dividends as Baldrick would say. Have a celebratory pint of bitter.

At least he earned some Air Miles, and a nice day out paid for.
SKY NEWS ARTICLE GRAPHIC. IMAGE: Ed Davey TEXT: Lib Dem leader calls for King's US state visit to be cancelled after Trump's criticism of Starmer
Trump’s illegal war is devastating the Middle East and pushing up energy bills for British families.
This visit should not go ahead.
Kemi Badenoch backs Trump while Nigel Farage jets off to Mar-a-Lago.
A state visit for a President who has dragged the world into conflict with no clear goals would be inappropriate.

I wonder what his constituents think about all of these business trips.
