Has a touch of the "ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Fรผhrer" about it

Please don't just tickle her political tummy, at least apply some pressure and ask some difficult questions

How rightwing rhetoric has risen sharply in the UK parliament โ€“ an exclusive visual analysis In the past five years, MPsโ€™ attitudes in the House of Commons towards immigration have swung harder to the right than at almost any other time in the last century

I mean, we all new that it was happening, but it's nice to get the data to prove it. #Parliament

Ed Miliband appears to be one of the only MPs that has the ability to basically put @nickferrarilbc.bsky.social in his box. Doesn't get flustered by his badgering and just replies with facts.

Wake up this morning to @nickferrarilbc.bsky.social giving @eddavey.libdems.org.uk a bit of a kicking for his past praise of Andrew. Just going to sit and wait till he gives Charles a kicking for praising and being friends with Saville. Might be a while, better get a coffee #MountbattenWindsor

Saw a great line about the royals "the age of deference is dead, welcome to the age of accountability" and boy do I hope thats true #CitizenNotSubject

For a generation raised on The Clash, the Ramones, Black Flag, Propaghandi and a good dose of parental neglect, we are nowhere near as angry about the current shite state as we should be

Well, you'd like to think we weren't just spanking hundreds of millions up the wall on nothing more than glorified civil servants/curtain openers

The king is not king because he is good.

He is king because he is next.

But if the line of succession can be edited when someone becomes unacceptable, then birth is no longer the source of legitimacy.

Acquiesce is.

What a question from @mrjamesob.bsky.social on @lbc.co.uk. If you can change the line of succession, by removing someone like Andrew, then what is the point of Monarchy?

What has changed is that successive governments have not put enough cash into education, be that SEND or mainstream

Please stop listening to people who say that there has been a massive increase in children requiring SEND provisions. In 1978 it was 1 in 5, and guess what, its 1 in 5 still today.

Listening to Badenoch saying they are going to scrutinise the government's SEND plans to ensure that children are not disadvantaged. Your bloody party did more to disadvantaged children than anyone else since people sent kids up chimneys!! You closed sure start and cut education spending for years

This is someone who had everything that anyone could ever have wanted, and for him it wasn't enough. So he sought to get more, not through his own talents, but by abusing the position he was in. We have no duty to this man and may his next shit be a hedgehog

I've just seen a clip of Jonathan Dimbleby saying there is a duty of care over Andrew MW and he can't just be kicked out and left to fend for himself. I'm sorry, we are not talking about someone who through no fault of their own has ended up in need of the welfare state.

I can just imagine that aides and ministers in Whitehall are currently beavering away finding bad news that they want to push out today

Along with this palaces and lands bar Windsor should be passed into public ownership and in the case of palaces, opened as public museums and monuments.

Remeber, they are little more than glorified civil servants, and deserve no deference based purely on their birth

The only way the royals continue to have a place in our society, not that I think they should, is by removing all but the monarch and the heir from public life.

Just heard caller Brett on @henryriley1.bsky.social @lbc.co.uk putting it as a negative point that people want to work the minimum amount for maximum reward. But surely this is everyone's goal, it certainly seems to be what all the financial bros push all the time

Palestine Action ban ruled unlawful but group remains proscribed for now It remains in place for now to allow further legal argument and the government to consider an appeal.

The Government should now accept the courts decision, not waste public money appealing the ruling

Just cause they essentially have unlimited funds to challenge rulings they do not like, doesn't mean you can keep appealing till you get the result you want, as they did with the school holiday rulings

Heard a comment from a caller on @lbc.co.uk that the problem with the left is they attack people like Farage and his ilk on the right rather than address the problem. Well the thing is, that when it comes to right wing politics, the people are the problem

Who the feck is this boot licker Sophie on @matthew-wright.bsky.social saying that the average immigrant contributes less to society than billionaires. Billionaire are not wealth creators, they are wealth extractors, a negative to the public wealth of a nation

Wasn't someone high up in Palantir reported as saying woman and poor people should never have been given the vote? Sound like just the sort of people we want with tentacles in all our government departments

Tony Blair think tank urges UK to reverse ban on new oil and gas licences | The National Report says current policies will push up household bills

Shock horror, Tony Blair wants a rethink on North Sea Drilling. Never one to miss an opportunity to line his pocket by getting in the pocket of big business. Maybe he is trying to cover the blood that is on his hands with crude oil
