A vehicle that had been reported stolen was stopped without incident. It turns out the vehicle had been located by the owner and hadn’t been stolen at all but they had not updated Police. The driver how ever smelt of cannabis and failed a drugs test so has been arrested #fatal4

Top tip; when reading in bed, avoid having your book fall on your face when you drift off by simply suspending yourself upside down from the ceiling and putting your book on the pillow instead.
When you fall asleep you'll just hang there, quite safe from book to face injuries.

It was always a right-wing project to make the rich richer at the expense of the poor.Why I support People’s Vote:

As of 3:12 pm, Britain hasn't used coal power for 14 continuous days 💪
This marks the only coal-free fortnight since the world’s first coal-powered plant opened in London in 1882.
We must phase out coal and become net-zero carbon emissions to tackle the climate emergency. 🌍
