Gosh . It couldn’t be more apt

Look how uncomfortable Zia Youssef is in this clip. He hates every minute of this and looks like he’s returned to the years of schoolyard bullying . This won’t last but journalists have to ask questions hard.

Look how uncomfortable Zia Yusuf is in this clip. He hates every minute of this, it’s already doomed .

The authentic voice of the working class

The febrile expectations and balance of meaning are palpable. this could go either way and in eclipse season, badly.I understand Al’s opinion “buying time”, but I agree with Rory that words about Carney were unnecessary but Starmer’s need to bridge hope with US and EU could undermining UK EU status.

One in three dying in pain as palliative care crisis deepens People in their final days are often not getting proper pain relief, as a study reveals an ‘enormous volume’ of unnecessary suffering

🚨 Clare Welch pleaded for help from NHS 111 as her dying mother screamed in pain in the other room. Told a dr would call, 4 years on she is still waiting for that call back.

New @mariecurieuk research has found 170,000 people die in pain every year: www.thetimes.com/article/7552...

"He looked like a tax inspector. I was frightened for my life"

Put this on Facebook

Broadcasters should be aware that 5/6ths of UK audience (most people in all demographic + political views) don't yet know this central point about the most salient policy issue. They should communicate that context clearly + platform the contested political debate

I don’t feel sorry for him. He needs to wake up to the reality of politics , recognise his reticence is failure and get more women into key team positions in his government.

This week , the news was pretty much back to back paedophilia crime ‘stories’, temporarily knocking misogyny off the top . What the fuk is wrong with this society ?

Happy Birthday 🥳

UK has two months to save its steel industry, says Tata exec U.K. urged to follow the EU in imposing higher tariffs on imported products.

❌ Being outside of the EU has proved to be disastrous for our steel industry in a more protectionist world economic order.

Britain is isolated on the world stage and Brexit is to blame.

Why aren’t Manchester United supporters up in arms about this tax-avoiding man?

Because it’s convenient to turn a blind eye ?

Clearly he’s swallowed the Dulwich boy snake-oil if he thinks NF has “good intentions “. Says “you’ve got to be prepared to be unpopular at the beginning to make change” ! like Sir Keir you mean ? He’s pretty unpopular!
I feel these men have literally never read a history book yet hold so much sway

Acting Director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Todd Lyons told lawmakers that his agency will play “a key part of the overall security apparatus” for the 2026 World Cup. Lyons was asked by House Democrat Nellie Pou if he realized that fear of ICE actions could be a concern for visitors.

Love this

Boy oh boy . It’s all change ! (Take a look at UK politics atm. I’d like to know Starmer’s chart! )
I’ve never known such a rapid series of upheaval and events around personally and wider

Yes, he knew links and admits an unquestionable mistake. But everyone stinks in this. He’s apologised, sacked people, been alone to report to police/opened it up for scrutiny.

I’m not sure why people see this as a binary issue - if everyone knew, why are all sides gunning for KS I wonder?

Worcestershire councillor quits Reform over plans to raise council tax Worcestershire Reform councillor David Taylor says he will now sit as an independent.

Cllr David Taylor from Worcestershire County Council resigned from Reform UK **live on air on the BBC**

"I walked in here today as a Reform county cllr - I won't be leaving this studio as a Reform county cllr"

Taylor was unhappy with Reform's wish to increase council tax by up to 10% from April

Like anyone civilised I don’t “reconcile “ any actions , nor does Starmer which is why he sacked him asap. Fact is, KS has a track record which suggests he couldn’t have known the nature of the friendship .
Enjoy the Starmer bashing , but KS isn’t the problem.

Britain’s trade chief races to Brussels to avoid ‘Made in Europe’ shutout U.K. officials fear that planned industry act could lock British firms out of key European supply chains.

U.K. Business and Trade Secretary Peter Kyle is heading to Brussels to dissuade the European Commission from shutting Britain out of its proposed “Made in Europe” initiative.

Don’t know who writes your headlines but if it’s not you then , heads up, they’re turning readers off your work . Starmer built an excellent career defending women and girls didn’t he or doesn’t that count on this occasion ?
The contempt comes thick and fast from some Guardian writers rather.

Not all of them, but there is a significant angry age group in the UK who are being politicised to hate women and ‘other’

It’s up to them to educate themselves and evolve.

Farage is following Trumps politics isn’t he? If he was in power here, we’d see the same policies as currently in US towards women, thereby harnessing male misogyny and a viscous society . The lack of media questioning is dangerous

It seems like Reform-adjacent accounts are putting fear into older communities as a policy strategy.
Them and men in their 50s who are angry and bitter about everything

An incredibly serious news day .

He does to me

Greens are an extremely patronising to London Labour.
It’s one of the disappointments this would-be green voter notices as it’s the very worst of politics .
Polanski comes across as cynical, sarky,immature . The LibDems don’t and we often hear really good sense spoken by Daisy Cooper especially.

What a twit . It would be good to arrange a dinner Party on telly and discuss events FACTUALLY. They do this in France , they debate in the round in TV studios, supporters of the Right don’t like factual discussion it seems…
