Labour Together bankrolled 123 candidates at the 2024 general election. Of them, 111 (90%) were successfully elected.
It seems that candidates in “danger” seats got extra support. Shabana Mahmood, whose majority dropped from 68% to 9%, received the most: a staggering £137,168.
EXCLUSIVE: After a phone call w/ a senior political contact in Scotland, I’ve been passed a list of 52 Labour MPs who have donations from Labour Together NOT registered on Electoral Commission website.
LT have funded a whole network of candidates to cement their grip on power:🧵
So let me get this straight. Victim of the post office scandal Janet Skinner is offered just 15% of her compensation claim.

“My young son, 7, is under the rubble. My 15-year-old daughter is still under the rubble. My whole family is gone. What have they done to you, Netanyahu?”
Palestinian father sobs with pain as he describes the bitterness of displacement.
Well done to all those who have tirelessly campaigned for the recognition of Palestine — an inalienable right of the Palestinian people.

Netanyahu is a racist, genocide waging, war monger
Here he talks of 🇮🇱 plans to lead the world in creating new weapons
An 🇮🇱 economy built on manufacturing weapons, conscription, land grabbing and war
🇮🇱 is an imperialist terrorist state

Are they invisible?
