Sort of extraordinary that there is only one obvious precedent for a prime minister winning a landslide election victory and then seeming like toast just two years later ... and it's the election *immediately* before this one.

Yes, isnโ€™t it strange how general elections keep being won by frauds that the public swiftly come to despise? And none of the people who loudly said that one or both of them would be great can explain what went wrong? Just a real head-scratcher there

This is what politics should feel like: thoughtful, honest and shaking things up.

Hannah Spencer is going to be a brilliant MP for Gorton & Denton.

It's time to stop Reform in their tracks:

Every day it's becoming clearer and clearer:

Gorton & Denton is between the Green Party and Reform.

And the Greens have plans to lower bills, protect the NHS and rebuild our public services.

Remember when Starmer and his allies in press spent weeks claiming Corbyn was an antisemite because he mispronounced Epsteinโ€™s surname?

Just a reminder of the batshit media environment that brought us here.

Since Labour has been in government under Starmer it's proactively aided genocide, the worst conceivable of human crimes. What bigger mistake and moral dereliction is there than that?

Andrew shared confidential information with Epstein as trade envoy, files suggest Under official guidance, trade envoys have a duty of confidentiality over sensitive, commercial, or political information.

I assume that Andrew Saxe-Coburg Gotha will now face a similar police investigation as Peter Mandelson and his estate searched?

Watching the bare faced hypocrisy of journalists and political pundits who hailed the appointment of Mandy now demanding Starmer's head is beyond a joke. These gobs on sticks need taking to task.

The Times calls Keir Starmer's decision to hire Peter Mandelson an "egregious error" which deserves an "inquiry into the appointment process."

Not included is any demand for an inquiry into their own appointment of him, long after his post-conviction relationship with Jeffrey Epstein was exposed

Like Dominic Cummings, Morgan McSweeney helped deliver electoral victory but, in doing so, debased and subverted everything his party claimed to stand for.

McSweeney is gone, Blue Labour going to go into overdrive now to save itself

If the Labour party has ANY chance to survive it needs to apologise for the last two years and actually be a party of "the Left"

The "Right" was resoundingly rejected last election, so why did we get a RW gov for 2 yrs?

"McSweeney masterminded Starmerโ€™s path to Downing Street..."

Yet to see a mainstream outlet follow this with the truth:

"... on a platform based on brazen lying to Labour members and voters, making promises he always intended Starmer to abandon as soon as he had power to shift hard to the right."

Good riddance to Morgan McSweeney for so many reasons, but principally for being an immigrant responsible for relentlessly pushing an anti-immigrant agenda, and for reproducing Fine Gaelโ€™s negative, joyless political machine within Labour (an open door, one could say). Power without principles.

As if his day is not, almost certainly, bad enough, McSweeney is now being mocked on the internet by other Irish people for calling England โ€˜our great country.โ€™
