No 10 might be insisting that the PM still has full confidence in his chief of staff Morgan Mcsweeny, but Labour MPs certainly don't - below is a picture being shared among the PLP

Thousands of tonnes of toxic landfill liquid added to sewage and spread on English farms Exclusive: Leachate is tankered to treatment works where it mixes with sewage and industrial effluent

It’s far worse than I ever thought.

When will any BBC journalist challenge the lies and hypocrisy that Farage and Reform speak? There are so many examples of their "double speak" yet no challenge. What has happened to journalists and probing questions? The BBC just seem to repeat what Reform say.

Ocado: Ditch the plastic bag In 2024, single-use plastic bag sales in England rose for the first time since the carrier bag levy was introduced in 2015 - a 7% increase, reaching 437 million bags. Shockingly, Ocado alone was respo...

Ocado handed out 221 million plastic bags last year! 😱 Sign the petition and tell them to ditch single-use bags for good. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/oc...

This week Nigel Farage learned what he must have long suspected: that there is nothing so disgusting that he can’t say it for fear of being challenged by the Prime Minister. THREAD

The BBC news is completely in thrall to the far right.

Revealing interview with a Medway Reform councillor, in the sense that it reveals he basically has no opinions on anything other than opposing housing.

Am I wrong, but didn't this Northampton childminder call for children to be burned alive?

"I was Keir Starmer's political prisoner?"

"Really? And what politics got you imprisoned?"

"I publicly advocated for vulnerable people to be burned alive"

Academic view: Professor Ronan McCrea on Brexit For a European Union that had been buffeted by a decade of negative stories from the Eurozone to mass migration, Brexit has, perhaps surprisingly, turned into something of a boost.

🔴 NEW - Reform has now admitted that Zia Yusuf’s big ‘local waste’ claims are nonsense

Turns out Farage’s DOGE genius hit ‘tweet’ too soon...

Given that she was The Foreign Secretary at the time of the leak, what exactly is she shocked about?!

Our latest letter in yesterday’s Yorkshire Post, also correcting a previous letter. There is a typo, so just to clarify Winston Churchill, Nigel Farages children, Harry Kane, Ben Stokes, Mark Francois, Jim Davidson and the actual King would NOT qualify as British under Goodwin’s definition…

Michelle Mone shows the hypocrisy of the UK, loots hundreds of millions of Pounds, nothing happens.

But if you steal a tin of beans, straight to jail.

Anyone else on here sickened to the core by how much the media fawn over the cesspit that is Reform??? 🤢🤬😤

It's time to rejoin the EU: Britain deserves a new say on a broken Brexit Brexit was never the will of the British people - it was the will of a frustrated minority, and even that support has now collapsed. For most of our five d

Yesterday Mark Carney was told, “Mr Carney, there’s a genocide in Palestine”.

“I’m aware,” Carney told the protester, “That’s why we have an arms embargo.”

This has really, really upset Benjamin Netanyahu, so don't RT unless you hate him.

Trump cannot be given a state visit to the UK. It should never have been offered. The invitation must now be withdrawn. You might as well hand it to Putin.
