@mrjamesob.bsky.social @lbc.co.uk For me one of the many qualities that attracts me to Zack Polanski is that he always answers questions when interviewed. Thereโs no spin or avoidance. And he doesnโt pick friendly journalists. Itโs refreshing, new, brave and brings hope.

If you have a Royal Family, you have deference.
If you have a Royal Family, you have a class system.
If you have a RF, you essentially say, "These people are better than everyone else by dint of birth & should maintain enormous influence, wealth and power."
Why would anyone want that at all?

As long as itโs not Reform! It would be the end of our NHS, our human rights, and so many things that make us us. Putin-loving Farage will also embolden our countryโs enemies and copy Trumpโs ICE. And, of course, it will all be about Farage and his mates enriching themselves at our expense.

Britain is an immigrant island. Has been since Roman times. It's the source of its energy, its vitality, its greatness.

Corrupt - No.
Craven - Yes.
This Government has shown no willingness to actually improve peopleโs lives and watered down every single policy they ran on to the point of inconsequence, whilst cos-playing as slightly nicer Tories.
Thatโs not what the country needed or still needs.

Is the anti-immigration, Brexit supporting moronic rhetoric a benefit for the country, or is it a pointless attempt to woo Reform voter who will never vote Labour in order to retain his position?

IMO Starmer has been incredibly poorly advised by the likes of McSweeney and Allan on numerous issues.
The problem is he showed no conviction or principles in arguing against their poor advice. Heโs an empty shirt.
Unfortunately, I donโt rate a single member of his cabinet as a replacement.

Starmer needs to acknowledge he didnโt win a huge mandate โ the Tories collapsed, so Labour strolled in.
Corbyn actually lost with more votes.
What did McSweeney do next? Advise Labour into the lowest poll ratings in its history.
So spare us the tears over McSweeneyโs resignation.

Productivity increases between 5% and 13% with working from home, and worker wellbeing improves hugely too.
But Farage doesn't care about reality. Or productivity. Or your wellbeing.
He cares about the workplace property investors who bankroll him.

I must have misunderstood the sentiment of your post - it seemed you were saying that McSweeney was performing a useful function (as a Sandbag).

Sorry Alex, but this moron is the primary cause of Labourโs dismal polling numbers - and that Starmer trusted him implicitly is a poor reflection on his judgement.

Labour take note and rethink your immigration policy and approach. Aping Reform is not the way forward or a sign of strong leadership.

Trump:
"NATO has treated the United States very badly. We've never asked for anything. We've never got anything."
Tell that to the families of 850 soldiers from 19 non-US NATO countries who died fighting to defend the United States in Afghanistan - the only occasion Article 5 was ever triggered.
