Complete joke

Petition: Ensure plurality of political coverage across UK broadcast media at all times We want to ensure that a plurality of views from all political parties in Westminster are represented and the nations parliaments are heard all year round, not just election times. The rules for cover...

Lib Dems now have 72 MPs. Reform have 5. Tories have 121 as official opposition. There’s been a Westminster spending review - so which opposition party gets to be on the entire @itvpeston.bsky.social? Yeah u guessed it - Richard Tice. We Demand plurality now petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

Horrendous

This is appalling.
Another Welsh university has announced that its entire senior leadership has voluntarily refused any pay increase. So for him to claim 'benchmarking' as his excuse is bullshit.

And this is how he'll make gains in Wales. Promising undeliverable fairy tales to desperate people who will want to believe him. By the time they realise it was all bollocks, it'll be too late.
Other political parties in Wales must his past bullshit promises to the campaigning fore in 26.

Good afternoon

Steps up to first floor cycle park with rolling ramp for bikes

Cambridge cycle parking: hundreds of bicycles

Cycle parking at Cambridge Station. Not many places outside the Netherlands that I've seen this scale of bike parking. 19% of journeys in Cambridge are by bike, despite the infrastructure being far from perfect.

Reform threatens to cut council workers’ pensions while amassing big pension pots for themselves Farage said he will still claim his £73,000 per year European Parliament pension, yet Reform is going after council workers' pensions

The Big Lie of the far right is that fascists care about working people

Nothing could be further from the truth

What they care about is their own wealth and power

If universities sink, then so will Starmer Some Labour figures believe Britain has too many unis. But if they start failing, local economies – and Starmer’s re-election prospects – will go with them

Jesus! The level of bullshit.

Yn hollol

Totally

Totally deplorable

Incredibly depressing day. I've spent my entire life being told by British governments how dreadful immigration is. New Labour did it. The Coalition. The Brexiters. Now Starmer. All of them accusing the ones who came before them of failing to clamp down. The same old vacant mean-spirited bollocks.

YouTube video by Richard J Murphy Might some of the UK's universities go bust because of the crises now hitting the sector?

40% of the UK's universities are now running deficits. Next year, it is expected that 75% will. How long is it before some begin to go bust as a result of UK government policy?

Disability benefits: Labour MP Steve Witherden to vote against cuts Steve Witherden believes

BBC Wales has contacted every Welsh Labour MP to ask whether they will be voting with the government to approve the welfare reforms – so far none has replied, except Steve Witherden.

Every Plaid Cymru MP will be voting against Labour's cruel disability cuts.

EU may accept 12-month work visas for ‘youth experience’ scheme with UK Exclusive: Post-Brexit plan would allow British and European 18- to 30-year-olds to travel and work freely

A new youth mobility scheme with the EU would give our young people the opportunity to develop vital skills, experiences and friendships across Europe.

I’ll keep pushing for more opportunities like this for Londoners.

Some personal news: meet my new replacement at the all new Observer newspaper.

Yes, it’s Facebook’s very own Nick Clegg. Congrats to everyone involved in this absolutely stellar signing. Take a bow.

Child poverty in larger families soars after two child benefit cap imposed EXCLUSIVE: Official figures show the poverty rate for kids in households where there are three or more children is 41%.

Absolutely shocking. Do these Labour politicians not realise we are in the early stages of a population and demography crisis in Scotland? Yet here they are trying to make it worse by socially engineering our communities by withholding benefits.
www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politic...

When there’s an economic emergency, a climate energy, or a security emergency, our leaders take immediate action. The child poverty emergency has been with us for some time now, yet action seems further away than ever.

Despite there being mounting evidence of Brexit being a monumental exercise only in self-harm…

We continue down this ridiculous road because politicians are too scared to re-open the debate.
