Centrists are so silly.

[BernardoHermano @BernardoHermano]

But it is already a Labour seat... Labour risk handing it to Reform because of internal party politics. It's only up for election because of Labour.

[Eli 🇵🇸 @caibarhaw]

Completely barmy if they do stand. Haven't a hope in hell of winning but could hand it to Reform.

The present political climate demands a level of discipline that means moving away from this sort of hyper-sectarianism, from Labour, Greens, and progressive nationalist parties.

NEW: Andy Burnham confirms to ITV he wants to rejoin the EU in future

But he says he doesn’t want to advocate that at this by-election (presumably because it’s a very pro-Leave seat)

“In the long-term there is a case for that, but I'm not advocating that in this by-election”

[BernardoHermano @BernardoHermano]

What it all boiled down to.

[Wokerati Marty @WokeratiMarty]

One thing’s for certain about the upcoming Labour leadership election: it won’t be anywhere near as exciting as 2015, when Jeremy Corbyn easily saw off all the boring candidates — including Andy Burnham and 2.5% Liz.

What’s it called when two countries merge but only one of the two has its culture and institutions smashed, its people thrown into poverty, and a decades long crusade is waged to convince everyone it was evil in all regards because “unification” doesn’t seem quite accurate

[BernardoHermano @BernardoHermano]

Burnham? I call him Burned Ham! He's beyond cooked!

[BernardoHermano @BernardoHermano]

At least JC had a whole lifetime of conviction, Burnham was a pro Iraq war LFI PFI guy five minutes ago.

[BernardoHermano @BernardoHermano]

I don't understand any of this Burnham stuff tbh. When was it decided? By who? And it's the same shit again. This one person is going to change the whole party and do exactly what you believe. And we're talking about Burnham here!

Starmer* has the uncanny ability to make words lose any meaning. As soon as I read anything like this my brain just refuses to engage. [*and his speechwriters ofc, but it's always been like this, I think he absorbs life essence like a charisma void]

[Robert Peston @Peston]

I am on my way to hear Keir Starmer try to save his job by saying - according to an overnight briefing that - “to meet the challenges that our country faces incremental change won't cut it.” The briefing also says Starmer will also “set out the next steps in his plan to build a stronger and fairer Britain in the coming days and weeks.” So the end of “incremental change” will come in “steps.”

[BernardoHermano @BernardoHermano]

Personally I would avoid any "Strength through..." formulations...

[Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer]

Strength through fairness. Hope for the future. Real answers to the challenges facing our country.

This morning, I’m setting out the path ahead to build a stronger and fairer Britain.

Watch my speech across my social media channels.

[BernardoHermano @BernardoHermano]

@CeilNoyle Same when he takes "full responsibility" for something. He says that he does and then considers the matter closed.

[BernardoHermano @BernardoHermano]

But (somehow?) it did lead to this work of art:

[BernardoHermano @BernardoHermano]

Another normal Corbyn piece.

@Tony_Diver "I'm not plotting, but here are the details of my plot."

[BernardoHermano @BernardoHermano]

These people are too funny. Everyone hates starmer because every word he says sounds like a lie. There's only one person who's even worse.

[BernardoHermano @BernardoHermano]

"I want your job, but I'm deffo not plotting" he said plottingly. "But here's what I would do if I were."

[BernardoHermano @BernardoHermano]

Why do Americans talk about youtubers and twitch streamers as though they're some kind of prophets? Why is it important what "Contrapoints" has to say?
