Maybe someone could coordinate social media tweets on why Wes Streeting would be the worst choice for Labour PM.
Keep it civil, factual, consistent, and make it real.
Mainstream media may not hold him to account, but all of us - we can.

[Alan Simpson @AlanSimpson01]

So typical of a Labour Together stitch up. Run Starmer under a false flag radicalism. Ditch him once the bubble bursts. Then run your true believer.
But within 30 seconds the Right will brand Wes as ‘Mandelson’s mate’ and Labour will get stuffed again https://t.co/YCacsOcLXU

Laura Kuenssberg, "Catherine, you are directly calling on the Cabinet to move against Keir Starmer, one of them is here, Bridget Phillipson, what's your message to her?"

Catherine West, "There's nothing stopping Bridget from standing. Why are all the men better than the women?"

"We need some senior women to step forward and challenge what will be a really difficult two and half years between now and the general election, and to take us into that second term"

Bridget Phillipson, "I love you dearly Catherine but I disagree with you on this one"

🚨 BREAKING:

🇦🇪🇨🇳 SAUDI ARABIA AND THE UAE WANT TO SELL OIL WITH CHINESE YUAN INSTEAD OF THE U.S. DOLLAR

INSIDERS SAY THEY LEFT OPEC (THE ORGANIZATION OF THE PETROLEUM EXPORTING COUNTRIES) TO DO THIS

THIS MEANS THE U.S. WILL LOSE TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN OIL TRANSACTIONS

SOMETHING EXTREMELY BAD IS HAPPENING...

🇺🇸 v 🇪🇺 food

Listen to what this American says about what a US trade deal really means for our food and health.

While talking about “reset” with Europe… Starmer’s government is opening the door to US 🇺🇸 standards.

That’s how they’re trying to make Brexit work.

UK Jewish MP: "Israel acting like Nazis in Gaza"

"Israel was born out of Jewish Terrorism - Tzipi Livni's Father was a Terrorist"
Astonishing claims in the House of Parliament. SIR Gerald Kaufman, the veteran Labour MP, compared the actions of Israeli troops in Gaza to the Nazis who forced his family to flee Poland.

During a Commons debate on the fighting in Gaza, he urged the government to impose an arms embargo on Israel.

Sir Gerald, who was brought up as an orthodox Jew and Zionist, said: "My grandmother was ill in bed when the Nazis came to her home town a German soldier shot her dead in her bed.

"My grandmother did not die to provide cover for Israeli soldiers murdering Palestinian grandmothers in Gaza. The present Israeli government ruthlessly and cynically exploits the continuing guilt from gentiles over the slaughter of Jews in the Holocaust as justification for their murder of Palestinians."

He said the claim that many of the Palestinian victims were militants "was the reply of the Nazi" and added: "I suppose the Jews fighting for their lives in the Warsaw ghetto could have been dismissed as militants."

He accused the Israeli government of seeking "conquest" and added: "They are not simply war criminals, they are fools."

This was in 2009 when the truth could still be spoken in the UK Parliament

John McDonnell, "What we've seen is No 10 overriding, interfering, pressurising civil servants, we can't go on like this"

"Keir Starmer's office controls everything, he wasn't listening to any of us"

"As soon as Mandelson's name came into the frame I told Keir Starmer if you appoint this person, people will think you've lost all sense of judgment"

"Keir Starmer never listened, what happened McSweeney took control"

"No leader should allow that to happen"

Never in the history of our country has one man done so much damage to the with a single action.

That action was Brexit

The man was Nigel Farage

Why on earth would you vote for him?

Decent people won't vote Reform

New York just kicked out Palantir, the Swiss did it last year.

Time for everybody else to do it too.

Cancel Palantir.

WAKE UP! Oil is coming from the Gulf
1. In tankers whose nations have declared neutrality, and
2. With oil that is traded in yuan (not dollars).
Trump has told us we are on our own, so why not put peace (and the public) before warmongering?

Ministers are reportedly exploring how to cancel dangerous spy-tech firm Palantir's contract to handle NHS data after over 150k people joined me in calling on them to break the contract.

Join us - together we can kick out Palantir out of our NHS:
