I’m much more concerned about the racist dog whistles in @teamlabouruk.bsky.social immigration announcements made by @shabanamahmood.bsky.social than what Farage did or didn’t say at school.

I wouldn’t put it past her.

They remind me strongly of my home city of Newcastle in NE England, where they used to roost in their thousands every evening. The problem was solved in part by extensive netting of the buildings, but their beautiful murmurations are missed.

More repulsive performative cruelty from @teamlabouruk.bsky.social

Tax the rich.

Give your head a wobble, you absolute weapon!

How about turning him over to the police?

Hasty, ill-thought legislation provokes further hasty, ill-thought legislation. Pull yourself together, Labour.

Why is the Home Office undermining the independence of the judiciary?

Disgraceful. But then he’ll be throwing a state banquet for a would-be dictator shortly.

I love the way he cleverly goes on to discuss the movie without pausing for breath so they couldn’t edit the clip down later!

Reject plans for a mandatory BritCard (digital ID) Sir Keir Starmer is considering a mandatory digital ID scheme called “BritCard” that would make us all reliant on a digital pass to go about our daily lives. Mandatory digital IDs give the state enor...

New JRF figures show that nearly 8 in 10 low-income working-age families in receipt of disability benefits went without essentials in May 2025. 1/2

Quote card with JRF chief exec Paul Kissack saying "Today's spending review had some welcome first steps on housing, child poverty and crisis support for the poorest people. These need to be backed by decisive action at the budget to improve living standards directly, along with stopping the cuts to disability benefits and delivering a strong child poverty strategy."

Earlier today, we heard the Chancellor @RachelReevesMP
set out details of the government's multi-year spending review.

She said it would 'ensure that renewal is felt in people's everyday lives'. 🔽
