#PrivilegesCommittee was careful to praise the quality of Boris Johnson's #PartyGate defence dossier.

And so it should be, costing us British taxpayers more than £200,000 of our money (that's £1 for each Covid death on Sasha's watch).

Suffolk libraries have more research that shows libraries do so much for people's welfare that you can actually put a price tag on it: over £6 saved for every £1 spent. Not an argument one should have to use, but... read about it in TLC's latest magazine:

"[...] the funding did not make up for real terms cuts in local authority budgets and called for a more sustainable financial model for libraries."
Is the latest round of funding enough for the 27 libraries receiving a share of £4.9m from DCMS?
