The Conservative party is now using the grooming gangs scandal to raise money for itself. A reminder that Kemi Badenoch's spokesman admitted yesterday that she hasn't even bothered to speak to any of the victims, and doesn't see the need to.

Apparently in rare cases pompholyx can migrate from the hands to the arms. I’m pretty fed up of being rare

I tried to impress our dinner guests with a sauce made from vodka, gravy & nitrous oxide but all I've done is make myself an Absolut laughing stock.

You know how on an episode of House how they work tirelessly to diagnose and treat a patient… yeah that’s not real life. It took YEARS to give me a diagnosis! #iih #medicaltrauma #chronicalyfabulous #chronicillness #ih #spoonies #spooniesky #mcas #blacksky #disabled #brainpain #invisibleillness
