"Nick, why won't the Government commit to Leveson II?"
*Because it was not in the manifesto - a decision taken by the team around Starmer*
Or rather, because ***Roop M said 'No'!***
(Watt said Starmer's team did not want a row with the print press in the run up to a general election) #Newsnight.

When discussing Tories, the media always come up with creative ways of describing fraud.

They seriously need to get their head out of the sand and never mind economics what about our national security - @hcrichardson.bsky.social here sets out the USA strategy which is throwing us under the bus! bsky.app/profile/hcri.... Absolutely horrifying.

Got to keep the Reform and Tory voters you're pandering to happy, eh Labour?

Private provider challenges ICB spending curbs England's biggest private hospital group has warned it may have to stop some of its NHS work as integrated care boards screw down on spending.

The tension in NHS policies laid bare: provider has capacity to treat more patients and reduce waiting lists/time but ICB does not have the money to commission more work. DHSC silent. www.hsj.co.uk/finance-and-...

YouTube video by STERNENKO Про що домовились у Флориді? Казахстан і Туреччина просять Україну не оборонятися

Sternenko today with another inspiring and at times entertaining (love his sarcasm) daily address. He is now my first choice for daily update videos on the frontline situation. In Ukrainian but the English translation in the auto-generated captions is quite good. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLk2...

Starmer's response to Gill's conviction is extraordinary and weak.

Asking Farage to open his own investigation and saying this would show leadership. Again weak and beggers belief.

Has anyone told Starmer he is the PM of the UK and has extraordinary powers.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION.

You've all forgotten I said I can't sign a deal with Zelensky cos I said he's illegitimate.

Wouldn’t be surprised if Starmer was halfway over the Atlantic already.

The main reason why UK government investment in public services, productivity, and growth have been stagnant since 2008 is b/c their bailouts for the UK financial sector cost approx. £137b ( £253b in today's money), and I don't think they have recovered much of that, if any, to my knowledge?

Anyone that has the nerve to engage in corruption, when the country is battling for survival, should be sent to the frontlines to clean uxo.

The commander of one of the units of the 218th Tank Regiment (military unit 82588 of the Russian Armed Forces) openly explained why there are so many missing soldiers in the Russian army.

Here come the 'Midas tapes', named after the vast corruption scheme within Ukraine's...energy sector. There couldn't be a better - for anti-corruption agencies & Ukrainians - and worse - for the officials involved - timing for those revelations to come up.

Just occurred that the BBC is the most literal example of Conquest's third law in that it is actually run by a cabal of its enemies.

My grandfather was a WWII PoW, and even though he survived, his subsequent violent alcoholism badly affected my mum, and even through her trauma on me and my sister.
War destroys so many lives, and the white poppy is essential. We want and need to move beyond war and remembrance to PEACE.

Here in France we honour the fallen on the correct day, correct hour. With wreaths of red, white and blue. It’s a day off so everyone can pay their respects. It’s the homage not the choice of bloom that’s important surely GB News?

Farage has always been in Putins Pocket

He did it for money nothing for Britian

Sad ignorant fools that continue to buy his lies

Periodic reminder that this scheming half-wit Goebbels isn’t even a lawyer.

Owned by Rupert Murdoch. He’s slinging as much shit as he can right now.

Reform in Cornwall imploding within six months of sweeping election Nigel Farage's party took more Cornwall Council seats than anyone, but after a shocking week for the party, can it regroup and become a serious political force or will it fall apart?

In fighting in Kent, imploding in Cornwall.

My expectation is that all councilsa newly under Reform control will similalry collapse before completing their 4 year term.

History shows that's what political groups under Farage do - see Thanet, EU (two terms).

Good that Your Party is getting called out on this.

I cant read the article so does it cover the fact self employed dont get paid holidays, sickness, mat/paternity pay?
Obvs the rules are sometimes used inappropriately or even abused & that need addressing but without attacking the genuinely self employed.

It isn’t difficult to see now that Keir Starmer has been captured by a few billionaires. The Tories & Labour are finished.
