When things started working, when city centres began to smarten up and thrive, after 1997 it was, for a while, genuinely shocking. It was not the Britain we'd grown up in. But we threw it all away again - and the people responsible are telling us to blame immigrants.

If I were editing a column about Charlie Kirkโ€™s political genius, I would tell the writer he needed to quote Kirkโ€™s actual political beliefs. If the writer responded that doing so would weaken or distract from his argument, itโ€™d be a pretty good sign that the column was not ready for prime time.

I'd take any Labour leader who can get enough seats at the next GE to keep the right out. But I do not see how the NEC is going to allow Burnham to stand in a by-election that will inevitably be framed as the start of his campaign to unseat Starmer - because that is exactly what it will be!

Itโ€™s not like we donโ€™t all know how things are going to go:
1. Mandelson clings on.
2. Starmer expends yet more of his limited political capital supporting him.
3. The media drip-drip yet more eye-watering revelations, most of which theyโ€™ve been saving up for ages.
4. Mandelson eventually resigns.

Why I am putting up Union flags on my high street in Sutton

I once went to watch Sutton United play a team local to me. They probably had 2-300 fans. Anyway, all of them were singing 'Brexit till I die' in 2019.

I thought he was playing on with an injury for the benefit of the team. Looks like the opposite now. Worse than Owen

Dunno why people are so upset with todayโ€™s result. Didnโ€™t lose; didnโ€™t score any goals because WE DIDNโ€™T HAVE ANY STRIKER ON THE PITCH. Only one man to blame for that, and its not Eddie Howe #nufc

The people protesting outside the Epping hotel are more of a danger to the public than the residents inside.

The last 12 months could have gone better for Labour but they've been catastrophic for the Tories.
Despite the support of the press, the BBC and Sky Badenoch hasn't laid a glove on Starmer.

In this Ohio diner, the Supreme leader still means uppity, ungrateful Diana Ross. But they do know this: If Ayatollah Khamenei wants the war to end, he will convert Iran's national currency to $TRUMP Coin.

Quite brutal by Keir Starmer at #PMQs after Kemi Badenoch raises the U-turn on winter fuel - which she slightly missed at the last PMQs: "I'm glad to hear sheโ€™s catching up with what happened two weeks ago."

Imagine the pitch meeting.
'A completely new kind of detective show..'
'Go on.'
'Turns the genre on its head.'
'I'm intrigued.'
'Are you truly ready for this..?'

been saying this for like 3 years now, the core constituency of the "manosphere" is not Gen Z or teenage boys, it is 35-55 year old dudes who wish they were still teenage boys

Interestingly, UK inflation of 3.7% is exactly a third of its peak of 11.1% under the Tories.

People who do not want the UK and EU to do a deal:
1. Vladimir Putin
2. Donald Trump
3. Nigel Farage
4. Kemi Badenoch

Disgusted a Labour MP would call for us to potentially leave the ECHR....especially this week of all weeks, as we celebrate the 80th anniversary of VE Day, and look back to WW2.

The ECHR was set up to prevent a repeat of WW2.

Some should have a word with Jonathan...

It's Day 100 of the Trump presidency. And after countless back-and-forth edits, daylong viewing binges, and several all-nighters, I bring you: My newly revised list of every Trump Administration official as a character from Game of Thrones.

Rosie Duffield wasn't hounded out of the Labour party, she stood at the last election and had the Labour whip, she quit once she was guaranteed another 5 years on an MP's salary and expenses she quit #pmqs #politicslive #5Live
