Rachel Reeves on X: I will accept Nigel Farage’s request to be appointed Steward and Bailiff of the Manor of Northstead. It is a farce and a desperate distraction, and the people of Clacton deserve better. But if he wants to spend the summer arguing with a bin, I won't stop him.
List of stewards of the Manor of Northstead and reasons they took the post. The link to the full list is in the tweet but there's a bunch of ne'er-do-wells like Owen Paterson (breaching the rules against paid advocacy), Neil Parish (viewed pornography in the Palace of Westminster) and Chris Pincher (allegations of sexual misconduct).

A 10 April 2024 article referred to Dr Aidan Kelly and Dr Heather Wood who formerly worked at the Gender Identity Development Services (GIDS) as ‘doctors who doled out puberty blockers to a generation of vulnerable children’. Drs Kelly and Wood have contacted us to explain that they did not “dole out” puberty blockers and that they practiced in line with NHS England Protocols. We accept that they assessed patients as part of a multidisciplinary team. As clinical psychologists, they did not prescribe any medication and we take this opportunity to apologise for any contrary impression.

Two-page magazine advert. Screenshots of various Sega Saturn games with the text "in case you didn't notice there is a beautiful, naked woman on this page". The screenshots cover the less advertiser-friendly parts of her body and text underneath reads "When you've got Sega Saturn's triple 32-bit processing power NOTHING ELSE MATTERS". Smaller text at the bottom says: She's got blonde hair, blue eyes and the best body her money can buy. SO WHAT! There's no time for distractions when you're deep into Sega Saturn. Besides, check out those screen shots. Ba-dah-boom, ba-dah-bing, know what I mean? You want curves? Try Sega Rally! Want a thrill? Panzer Dragoon II Zwei. Want a real knockout? Check out Virtual Fighter II. And lots of other incredibly cool games you can play on Saturn. But don't be fooled. Sega Saturn games offer more htan just great looks. Like three 32-bit processors (that's two more than Playstation, if you're scoring at home - or even if you're alone). Saturn's triple processing power means better gameplay and better graphics. So if you're looking for some real action, HEAD FOR SATURN.

SEGA have taken delivery of SONIC THE HEDGEHOG"
Dear Bill, Thank you very much for reaching out to me on this important issue and for your patience in awaiting a response. I understand that the past few weeks have been a time of worry and anxiety for many people who are part of the trans community, as well as for the many allies of people who are trans, non binary, queer, gender non-conforming or who come under any category of person who may now be left feel uncertain about what the Supreme Courts ruling means for their day-to-day reality. I want to personally apologise for any upset that this ruling may have caused you. As your Labour MP I want to reassure you of the importance that the Government places on ensuring the safety of all citizens, to go about their lives in peace, treated with the respect and equal treatment that we should all see as our right. Our government acknowledges that the trans community specifically has been singled out as a group in a way that is at best unconstructive and at worst cruel and callous and we take these matters extremely seriously. It is the Labour Party that is fighting to ensure that all hate crimes are met with equal punishment, and we will continue pushing to ensure that anti-trans hatred is treated as an aggravated offence in law, in the same way that racially or religiously motivated hate crimes are. Labour is also clear on the fact that conversion therapy is abuse and we will honour our pledge to outlaw this practice in a manner that is trans-inclusive. I appreciate that there are clarifications which people will be very eager to seek with regards to the ways in which the Supreme Court's findings will be implemented. It is my understanding that the EHRC is aiming to provide the updated Code of Practice to the UK Government by the end of June for ministerial approval. In the meantime, I encourage you to reach out to me if there is anything I can do by means of signposting to useful resources. I know that there will be constituents who want to speak out on…
