Can't wait for Carney's diaries when out of office.

Renewables overtake coal as world's biggest source of electricity Developing countries lead the historic clean energy charge but the US and EU rely more on fossil fuels than before, a think tank study shows.

Jenrick will be furious when he discovers he was a Minister in the Government that created the country he doesn't like.

Jenrick's now delivering a wider-ranging speech as if he was Tory leader, which he's plotting to be.

Jenrick's gone the full Trump, planning to appoint only judges who agree with him should be become Lord Chancellor/Justice Secretary.

Tory justice would be no justice.

Robert Jenrick complained of ‘not seeing another white face’ in Birmingham neighbourhood Shadow justice secretary criticised for suggesting he could tell how integrated Handsworth was based on short visit

Bigotry, racism and almost certainly untrue.

Synagogue attack confirmed as terrorist incident with more people arrested Two people have been killed at a synagogue in north Manchester, sparking a major incident with several police officers and paramedics on scene - and the suspected attacker shot dead

What a horrifying, heartbreaking murderous attack outside a Manchester synagogue on Yom Kippur.

Owen Jones kicked out of Labour conference over 'safeguarding' issue The Jeremy Corbyn supporter accused Labour of "Trumpian behaviour", and said he'd never has his pass revoked before, with the party citing concerns over safeguarding

'Starmer's safe for now - but must do more than wrapping himself in Union Jack' Keir Starmer is secure for now but either he raises his game and improves Labour’s fortunes or in September 2026 it may not be only Andy Burnham posing as an alternative...

Starmer must do more than wrapping himself in Union Jack

Look who is in a rare copy of Labour’s conference guide that survived pulping.
