Keir Starmer’s plan to blame Nigel Farage for budget tax rises With Reform UK threatening the end of two-party politics, both Labour and the Tories are fighting to stay relevant as conference season comes to an end

Rachel Reeves set to blame Nigel Farage for tax rises in the Budget, saying he delivered Brexit with “easy sloganeering” and then walked away

It’s about time

We all know what ‘a good relationship’ means. This woman is both mendacious and abysmal. No difference between her, Jenrick or Tice.

"It's not corruption when we do it!" I swear their world view doesn't extend beyond thinking they're the god guys therefore everything they do is good.

“some snails on the site that are a protected species or something”
The kind of remark dismissive of environmental concerns one might expect to hear from Nigel Farage.
Still, its nice for business to be able to have a quick chat with the chancellor to clear away pesky environmental regulations.

Jenrick, Hunt, & other Tories also had good relationships with developers, too. Labour lambasted them.

Labour Ministers & MPs are openly 'bought' i.e. corrupt.

They are making Labour unelectable. So, why are Labour's executive & members, Union leaders & members refusing to enforce rules & laws?

Rachel Reeves clears planning blockage amid ‘good relationship’ with developer Exclusive: Chancellor says 20,000 homes were being held up due to ‘some snails that are a protected species or something’

Utterly beholden to lobbyists, staggeringly ignorant and dismissive of the natural world: Rachel Reeves might not look or sound like Donald Trump, but she is behaving very much like him. This government is even more of an ecological hazard than the Tories were.

Forgive me for straying towards hyperbole here. It is incredible to think we had more coverage of Rachel Reeves crying at work than a former MEP taking bribes from Russia.

Always remember ...
Brexit was simply the first salvo in a Putin-backed attack upon the West. The same battle is now being fought throughout Europe. If the UK turns its back on Brexit and rejoins the EU, it will be seen as a victory for the whole of Europe against the rise of fascism. Pick a side.

Trump posts as though he's typing with the Gauntlet of Infinity, but in actual fact he's doing it with the convenient power of selective dementia.

Imagine spending four decades of your life behind bars for a crime you didn’t commit.

That alone is cruel and unusual punishment.

You finally manage to secure your freedom, only to have ICE immediately grab you and send you to a detention centre.

Justice for Subu.

Let him go.

“We’re being ourselves in order to highlight the weirdness that others are trying to impose on Portland.

We’re just showing them who we are and hopefully that causes them to re-evaluate their motives for being here.”

ICE are the weird ones.

Militarizing a city against its wishes is weird.

When I think of violent criminals … Winnie the Pooh and Cookie Monster are top of the list.

Hide your honey and your baked goods!

Portland is rubbing off on Chicago. The inflatable animals have arrived at the Broadview ICE detention facility chanting “this is what democracy looks like”

Priti Patel on the person that burnt the Koran - I fundamentally believe in free speech. Thirty seconds later on the Palestinian anti-genocide protestors - these "hate marches" are completely unacceptable.

Why the hell is Kuenssburg interviewing anyone?

Classic Priti - non answer by deflection, while ‘being very clear’.
No morals or values present, at all.
Careful to keep her options open under future Jenrick leadership.

So every member of ICE and the local police are going to be put on the sex offender registry for trafficking children, right?

You know, I hear so much about blue states and red states, but I mostly see blue state police departments and other agencies assisting the brownshirts. Pritzker talks well, and some low-level judges make legal rulings against the feds, but none of that amounts to much in practice.

This is human trafficking pure and simple

Starmer ‘planning to blame Farage and Brexit’ for budget tax hikes Sir Keir Starmer has been ramping up his attacks on Nigel Farage in recent weeks as Labour falls behind in the polls

This narrative doesn't make sense. You can't blame Brexit for harming the economy ... (UK businesses, for example, lose £37bn a year due to a drop in EU trade) ... yet at the same time categorically rule out returning even to the Single Market. So Starmer needs to do a masssive U-turn or step down.

Prince Andrew told Jeffrey Epstein ‘we’re in this together’ in 2011 email Royal sent email after Virginia Giuffre photo emerged but later claimed he had ceased contact with Epstein in 2010

Lost viola bow on the way from Honor Oak Station to Heathrow Terminal 2. The bow slid from its bow case somewhere along the way, possibly on the train. TFL contacted already. It weighs 68.2 grams and has got a stamped DODD next to the frog. If any info on this, please pm me.

My friend Sascha is a professional musician and he's lost a viola bow on the way to Heathrow. Please signal boost to help him get it back.

Quite a bloody cheek, this, given the UK has the most hostile regime towards healthcare for young trans people and their families in the world (www.gov.uk/government/s...).

This guy is living a Kafkaesque nightmare.

The cruelty here is bizarre and most Americans would be appalled if they knew.

And Trump wonders why he didn't win the Nobel Peace Prize?

Has lived in the US since he was NINE MONTHS OLD.
