The problem wasn't really the negative campaign.

The problem is that it was a smear campaign based on lies.

And still Labour aren't offering any solutions to the highest drug deaths in Europe.

Let's have *that* conversation.

It’s clear to me that the argument is actually about what you think the point of doing research is. If it’s papers, AI will be faster. But I don’t think it’s papers I think it’s the process and I want to do that process

The bigger question isn't whether Iran should play in the World Cup, but why a war-mongering aggressor should continue to host.

Would we still host a major sporting event in Russia after they invaded Ukra... oh, never mind. We did that in 2018.

This. New Labour wasn't just wars & media spin. It was a serious attempt to apply an updated social democracy to new socio-economic conditions - eg NMW, tax credits, expanding HE. This govt is making no comparable efforts (maybe coz, given economic stagnation, it's harder.)

How many more refugees are being created tonight? And then we can castigate them for having lost their homes and seeking new ones in places they never wanted to be.

I feel confident that the sort of people who moved to Dubai to avoid paying tax would say that those fleeing war in other countries are not our concern and they should seek refuge in a neighbouring country. In this case I’d suggest Iran, which they can reach by small boat.

Drugs to treat to HIV are a triumph of science and public health. Restricting these drugs imperils those losing them and risks the virus to mutating into resistant forms. Like the cuts to USAID before them, what a waste of life, hope and progress.

I let out an audible gasp.

There's a dark, dark, history of this. Of forced sterilization.

🚨Today, the UK government announced harsh new asylum rules that will make refugee status for people fleeing war and persecution temporary.

These proposals are cruel, unworkable and undemocratic.

Refugee status becomes temporary in asylum shake-up Adults and accompanied children claiming asylum will only receive refugee status for 30 months under the changes.

Abysmal, immoral, cruel, small hearted, tiny minded, ineffective, undemocratic, and just generally utterly indecent. What a bitter godforesaken disappointment these people are.

Tbh I’m annoyed that so much of the sexism targeted towards my candidacy is about painting me as an influencer rather than a journalist.

It COMPLETELY erases my bartending career.
