13 new Labour/news announcements that will be deliberately missed or misrepresented by our media

Please share as we have to do the job of our media. Let your fam/friends know this government has your back. As well as keeping us out of a forever war.

Farage has said he will only allow people who live in Wales to get social housing - you already have to live in Wales to get social housing here. The BBC reported Farage but made no correction.

Of the Β£5m+ donated to Reform in the final three months of 2025, more than half (Β£3m) was given by crypto investor Christopher Haborne.

The rest appears to have been given by an assortment of metals traders, asset managers, and property developers.

Badenoch gives a borderline disgraceful performance at PMQs on Iran | John Crace At times like this you have to thank your lucky stars that the opposition leader is not in Downing Street

Badenoch proving that political point scoring is more important to her than the security and safety of the UK.

Kemi giving a truly abysmal performance on Today, deeply out of her depth, insisting she's opposed to escalation whilst arguing for escalation, unable to actually articulate what she thinks should happen next. Just reflexively oppositional.

Your regular reminder than a large majority of voters - and overwhelming majority of Labour voters - favour giving settled migrants access to the welfare state after five years or less. The Home Secretary is not reforming rules in line with public opinion. She is doing the opposite.

The Brexit tendency seem to be absolutely losing their minds over the government's refusal to get bullied by America into an illegal war.

Quite something from the people who wanted "independence" and to "take back control."

Media must stop normalizing the far right Every uncritical mention of far-right rhetoric is an editorial decision with political consequences.

Trump has launched a war in the Middle East without our consent, without a plan, without a strategy, and without any clear idea about where it leads or how it ends.

He cannot be trusted. Congress must rein him in. Call your reps: (202) 224-3121

Donald Trump once opposed war and promised to remove America from foreign entanglements.

This is why he broke that promise.

Marian Anderson was barred from singing at Constitution Hall because she was Black.

Eleanor Roosevelt resigned from the Daughters of the American Revolution in protest.

The concert moved to the Lincoln Memorial.
75,000 people listened.

History remembers the voice they tried to silence.
