Sunday is a time for books and reading.
Here are two suggestions (photo).
What are you reading or have finished and would recommend?
The woman who forgot to pay £40,000 in stamp duty, despite being Housing Secretary, has no place on our government. Much like the unelected PM. #bbclaurak
My favourite books 📚 have characters I can relate to.
Do you prefer familiar characters or people you are unlikely to come across in real life?
I champion paperback books because they are permanent reminders of what we are reading.
People can see the brilliant books I am absorbing and I can be inspired by theirs.
I used to enjoy the X monetisation aspect, but the new system seems out of my reach. It feels as though X supports those who publish nonsense and doesn’t support genuine people trying to make a side hustle.
A paperback or hardback book is a perfect present for an avid reader.
Do you ever give books as presents?
If they broke the law then they need to feel the force of it. We cannot allow the media to control any narrative by deception.
STATEMENT:
Reform UK has reported ITV, its board, and its undercover reporters to the police.
Some of the crimes carry up to 10 years in prison.
They forged a passport.
They directly interfered in elections and almost certainly altered the results. Being paid to “canvass” for Reform in crucial wards we lost by a few dozen votes.
They lied to a veteran about their service and left him “violated”.
This is unprecedented.
The police are now involved.
Scrutiny of political parties is one thing.
But anyone breaking the law to try and ruin the lives of Reform’s staff, members or volunteers will be reported to the police and pursued relentlessly in the courts.
Here’s what happened 👇
Sense and Sensibility (1995) was probably the best screen adaptation of a book I have seen.
Which movie or TV show is your favourite book adaptation?
