Labour has stepped up its investigations into two MPs accused of sexual harassment.

The cases of Ivan Lewis and Kelvin Hopkins have both been referred to an internal disciplinary committee.

I'd rather cases like this went to an independent source.

The Conservatives need to take the fight to Labour on social media, the party's new chairman has said.

Brandon Lewis said the Tories intended to use Twitter, Facebook and Instagram more to "talk" to voters.

Agreed, Labour have already done well in that area but the question is are you going to get down with the young or put them down in your normal snooty way? :hmmm:

UKIP leader Henry Bolton says he has ended his relationship with his girlfriend after she reportedly made racist comments about Meghan Markle.

He said their romance was "obviously quite incompatible" with his role as party leader but he had no intention of resigning.

Sounds like her sexual appetite was too much for a old sod like you.

The NHS is "haemorrhaging" nurses with one in 10 now leaving the NHS in England each year, figures show.

More than 33,000 walked away last year, piling pressure on understaffed hospitals and community services.

The figures - provided to the BBC by NHS Digital - represent a rise of 20% since 2012-13, and mean there are now more leavers than joiners.

Nurse leaders said it was a "dangerous and downward spiral", but NHS bosses said the problem was being tackled.

Now this troubles me greatly.
