Just naked racism from Farage and the Mail.
Only British and commonwealth citizens are allowed to vote. It's not 'stealing' to legally take part in your own country's elections
If ever you needed a front page to capture the crass yet also dangerous silliness of so much of our media, and the impact of right wing nationalism which has done so much harm through a history from which some seem so unable to learn

CNN reporting that the strikes on Iran tonight are joint US and Israeli strikes.
Which means Donald Trump should be impeached for a third time.
What he has done tonight is illegal under the US constitution and the UN charter.
Even if we live aside for a second the immorality and practical problems of Mahmood's policies ...
Electorally, they will alienate more progressive voter and won't win over Reform voters.
Immoral and stupid. Labour will, and deserves to, die under these people

100% agree. I'm a political plonker but if I can see this, it begs the question as to why they can't. What is going on in their heads?

Sheer brilliance by Marina Hyde in The Graun:

Radiohead is demanding that the Trump administration take down a pro-ICE promotional video featuring a version of its song βLet Downβ without permission.
Full statement from the band:
I thought Starmer's statement this morning was a disaster. Pretending that the Greens are as bad as Reform, jUsT oN tHe LeFt, is an idiotic strategy for attracting back voters that clearly like what GPEW has to say.

Starmerβs language in this letter to Labour MPs is absolutely *unhinged*. A grotesque parroting of Farage and Goodwin harping on about the Greensβ alleged βsectarianismβ when theyβve run a positive campaign that united the electorate in rejecting Reform.
Get him gone.

Labour MP Ian Byrne: "The lines from the PM and Cabinet today essentially labelling the Green Party as extremist is appalling, desperate and frankly embarrassing.
"It also makes very clear that the leadership has zero understanding of where it has been going wrong."
Just what is going on in his head when he comes up with this shit!?

Starmer's letter to Labour MPs should be cause enough for them to oust him.
Rancid politics of the gutter (counteproductive and delusional too)
Labour have alienated the voters they had on the left, and failed to win over any of the voters they have courted on the right. Now their core appeal is all but gone and ever growing numbers of voters have exit options on the left, right and in the centre.
Welcome to the Valley of Electoral Death.

Hannah Spencer's victory speech is a simply brilliant piece of political communication.

Goodwin's bad loss is obviously cheering, an appalling individual poisoning UK politics. But Labour's negative messaging about the Green Party on drugs also belongs in a 1980s bin. Not that the Greens are perfect either, but again... more positive than others...

Sorry missed a word. You got to feel contempt for Matt Goodwin.
