The north of scotland bringing some showers here at High Pressure dominates further south, clearing away a weather front that brought cloud to the south first thing.

Zooming around across all corners of the uk. Ijust wondered whether given youre making the speech in a labour city, whether this is effective you parking your tags on Jeremy Corbyns lohan. The speech you have just made could have been made by any labour lead out over the last 20 years, perhaps corbyn aside, but it did sound rather labour.

All i hearfrom the labour party as it is going to whack up labour party as it is going to whack up taxes
