If Starmer had full confidence in me, I'd be worried.

Man's judgement is so poor it wouldn't surprise me if he was in charge of VAR.

If you'd known about the vetting process and what Starmer knew about Mandelson, you probably would have thought differently, I assume.

That photo was taken after he and 20 of his colleagues managed to exit a Reliant Robin.

Well, at least he doesn't have to talk about subverting democracy by banning Andy Burnham.

Not sure Starmer quite wanted a story like this to take that out of the news.

Frying pan, meet fire.

Labour only won cos the Tories are in free fall and Reform split the vote.

You can't be in government, polling 3rd/4th overall, and expect the leader to keep his job.

His problem is that he and Reeves are still binding themselves to the same fiscal rules the Tories cooked up, while refusing any calls for a wealth tax.
He thought he could take the same system and do a better job. The system is broken, and he's an arrogant idiot for thinking he could do better.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

First they mock you,
Then they insult you,
Then they lie about you,
Then they lose to you...

Isn't that how it goes?

Party that doesn’t have a leader, candidates or policies for Wales says it’s going to put Wales first.

Whilst lying that immigration is a devolved issue.

Immigration is not devolved, the Welsh Government has zero say on UK immigration policy.

Reform, Tories & Labour lying constantly at the mo.

Yes, Rachel, but the country and its key services rely on people who have been to university. Doctors, nurses, engineers, economists, lawyers, business leaders etc.

Yet full time minimum wage is now a higher wage than most graduate positions.

Scrap the graduate tax.

Well, I never.

Who is running the Labour party?

Zack Polanski, with Paul Holden, apparently according to this poster.

Both were shocking at PMQs.

Lammy seemingly wouldn't answer straight if you asked him what his name is.

He got a few shots in. But it looks stupid to fire back with stuff when he's asked a question about something mundane.

Like throwing a live grenade when someone asks you what you want for tea.

It tells you everything you need to know that Reform are parachuting in a rent-an-extremist - this isn't about representing the people of Gorton and Denton, it's about using this place as a platform for their careers.

Manchester will show him the door.

That's 10 minutes I won't get back.
Griffiths, the snivelling little ratman, can't be taken seriously ever again after he authored Truss's mini-budget.
Lammy doesn't bother to answer any question.
And the PM's in China, pretending to do anything that doesn't involve hating Andy Burnham.

Of course that's what they do, in between giving info to and getting orders from the Kremlin.

At this point, if someone is a DHS employee and they haven't left or spoken out, they are guilty by association.
They set the precedent. They should be held to it.

Immigration is a fake problem. We have politicians on the one hand who want to use immigrants as scapegoats for our real ones and politicians on the other who are too cowardly to stand against them and tell the truth. That is the entire situation. Until that changes, people will continue to die.

I've heard something about a large Somali population in Minneapolis, but I might be thinking of somewhere else.
Judging from his ramblings at the WEF, he really has it in for Somalis, and specifically Ilhan Omar.
