Starmer needs to get on the phone to Trump and ask him to set out a plan to protect civilians and support a democratic transition in Iran.

We've seen before that bombs don't bring about democracy and regime change without a plan just leads to more chaos and suffering.

All parents want the best for their children's education.

We must end the off-shore profiteering and ensure SEND provision is there for those children who need it.

Chalk streams are a vital part of our landscape, yet water companies continue to neglect and pollute them.

We will fight for UNESCO Serial World Heritage status to protect these priceless natural wonders.

Hi Nigel Farage, are you elderly or infirm?

Because in 2024, when you stood for election you voted by post (in Kent because you didn’t, and still don’t live in Clacton).

#PostalVoting

In 2020 Nigel Farage said of MPs who defect & refuse a by-election “it’s not right, it’s dishonorable”

Giving voters the right to have a say on an MPs defection is vital to restoring trust in our politics - and isn’t that exactly what the government has pledged to do?

Every Trump is followed by a bad smell.

Reform renters rights opposition shows they're 'in pocket of rogue landlords' Last week multi-millionaire Deputy Reform leader Richard Tice, announced that a Reform government would tear up Labour legislation to tackle abuse of tenants and employees

Reform’s vow to scrap the Renters Rights Act shows they’re “in the pocket of rogue landlords”, the Housing Secretary has claimed

www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

A useful record of Farage’s failure and his inability to cope with it. A cheat and a very bad loser who would happily trash democracy to get the result he wants. And then remove our rights to stop us holding him to account.
Such a corrupt, egomaniacal liar should have no hope of getting power.

The UK can't be dragged into another protracted Middle Eastern war by a US President. Keir Starmer needs to rule out the use of UK bases for any future unilateral US strikes.

Reform's Trump-style plans for an ICE-like immigration force in the UK will bring only chaos and disorder, not the control our immigration system truly needs.

"I think that sort of barbarity is not something that is true to British values, and so we will oppose that."

@EdDavey.LibDems.org.uk on Reform UK's plans for a Trump-style ICE force in the UK

The UK can't be dragged into another protracted Middle Eastern war by a US President.

Now that the by-election is over, perhaps we can get back to ignoring my racist bullying at school, Russian infiltration into my party, me lying about who paid for my house in Frinton and Reform run councils putting up council tax.

"Make votes matter," said Westminster's newest MP Hannah Spencer at our Manchester rally last year.

"Our vote is a right and our vote should count!"

Regardless of who you backed in this race, this is a message we can all unite around 🫱🏽‍🫲🏻

Tom Kerridge says political parties are using immigration to 'mask years of poor spending' Tom Kerridge has hit out at politicians and parties for using immigration as a "battering tool" and to "mask" years of "poor spending."

"Immigration is constantly used for masking years and years of infrastructure issues."

Extraordinary that in these fractious & divided times, so many of us can unite around the single, simple fact that Matthew Goodwin is an irredeemable twat.

Labour MP Clive Lewis doesn’t hold back on the Gorton and Denton result in this interview with ITV

Lucy Rigby MP: "This is who Reform are👇

On my way to Gorton & Denton to campaign against Reform’s hate & division, & for Labour’s Angeliki Stogia 🌹

Unity over division every day of the week."

Turns out bots can’t vote.

2026: Chairman of Reform UK says the Green party issuing leaflets in Urdu is appalling

2016: In 2016 Vote Leave published leaflets in Urdu, Punjabi and Hindi

"The threat of a far-right government elected against the public will has made tactical voting more vital than ever. From the 2024 General Election to recent results in Caerphilly and Gorton & Denton, voters are proving they will put values over party labels to meet the moment. It is a tragedy of our voting system that we must vote strategically rather than sincerely - but until that system changes, tactical voting is our strongest shield against the right." - Tom de Grunwald, Director of Forward Democracy

A comment from Forward Democracy, the organisation behind StopReformUK.vote, on the results of the Gorton and Denton by-election

The result we've all been waiting for tonight.

Parliamentarians must be able to scrutinise the Royals if needed, as we have been with Andrew Mountbatten Windsor.

It must be made clear to victims that nobody in this country is above the law.
