The Prime Minister @andyburnham announced that he’s giving British farmers £65 million of support. To put this in context, he’s given Pakistan £130 million this year.
Rick Rowe the Green Party candidate has just been out to the pub I’m in after sending the police here earlier. He threatened me and grabbed my phone. His boyfriend was here too, filming me for half the evening. What you going to do @metpoliceuk ?

I am having a drink this evening with a friend in a Chiswick pub. Two policemen have just come into the pub and asked me to step outside. I have stepped outside and they have threatened me because I tweeted about a councillor banning seating outside pubs in Chiswick. They admit on video (watch it!) that I did not break the law at all. They came to threaten me. To warn me off tweeting about councillors and the council. This is modern Britain. This is the police state. Please, please, please watch this video. It does involve me using very bad language, but this has got to be seen. Police coming out to threaten someone who hasn’t committed a crime. I’m fuming.
