It's quite clever to combine it with broader issues on animal welfare, I think. People having to give up pets when they move is a problem.

Let's not retread tactical political arguments here.
But should the Foreign Secretary be able to bullshit about immigrants holding down wages, without getting an extremely huge rocket from the Opposition?
If this isn't tackled, how do you persuade people they'll be worse off with Hard Brexit? Lots will understandably think "yeah, but at least my wages won't be dragged down".

1) In Twitter, select "Copy Link to Tweet" (the top choice in the drop down that appears when one clicks on the downward facing arrow in the top right corner of a Tweet).
2) On OTF, click "Go Advanced" at the bottom of the Quick Reply box
3) In the expanded reply box, paste the link to Twitter between "Tweet" tags (in square brackets, with a backwards slash in the second one, just as with any other formatting tag).
No, there is no button for this. Yes, one does need to "Go Advanced"

That Labour ad Nef linked to was also shown on telly tonight to capture the old codger demographic. I found it emotionally manipulative and a bit grating, but party political broadcasts tend to be I guess. I thought the NHS-themed one from a few weeks back was much better though.

Why does it only capture the "old codger" demographic? doesn't it also capture the "people with teenage kids" demographic? and indeed the "people with kids" demographic? and some of the "just old enough to vote" demographic?
Anyway we're going to need everyone to vote labour. Including "old codgers"?

So I just got home from my first CLP meeting in over a year and if I hadn't made it a thing I'm going to definitely do more of it might be my last for a while. Yeah, it was a shambles. The killer was the meeting being in full flow - point 5 of a 10 point agenda - at 9.10pm when someone points out it was only booked until 9pm so can we wind it up?
Getting to point 5 involved the tortuous process of motion, amendment, point of order, vote, amendment, point of information, blah blah blah, sapping the will out of everyone but the hardest of cores.
The chair is a nice guy but fairly new to the job, and only doing it because the previous chair got made Mayor to sideline him, and he was constantly taking prompts from the secretary and the previous chair, which - depending on who was inconvenienced by that particular bit - attracted mutterings and head shakes from the left AND the right of the CLP, and a load of oldsters loudly whispering "what's going on?"
At the last meeting there was a contretemps and an investigation into that found no case to answer which seems to have caused the resignation of the treasurer, a scalp for the right, but the hurried end to the meeting meant it was all very stated as something that was happening, okay?
I can take 2 positives from the meeting: 4 new members attending for the first time in an attendance of over 100, and that Sally Keeble, PPC for Northampton North seems at least publicly on board with Commie Jam Man.
