How about a revival of democracy & scrapping FPTP, Mr Blunkett?!

@BeingBoycie A lesson for all who work in TV be they directors/editors/producers or presenters- DON’T TIT ABOUT WITH THE FORMAT! They are merely stewards.
UC is THE quiz! They binned Amol’s daft monitor after his 1st season. 👍🏻
The students are the stars, like the genius in the woolly hat!

Hey! Remind me which parts of the UK is the CofE the established Church!

“… but one thing they have had … throughout that time is an almost unassailable grip on Britain's urban seats.”

Eh hello, Lewis. Aren’t you forgetting something? Scotland, the SNP?! Last time I looked Scotland was still part of the UK!

@labourlewis Clive Lewis’s call for Starmer to go is based on the danger of Reform at the next GE - understandable & quite correct! @AnasSarwar ‘s call is about the SNP! A Party WELL to the left of Lab, hardly a threat to democracy & our institutions, no, only a threat to Labour.

@RestIsPolitics
Alastair, I just heard your monologue & while I hardly disagree with a word you said, something about it didn’t feel quite right & proper.
The brilliant pod is a dialogue between you & Rory, not a monologue. Wrong platform methinks, matey!

[Iain Johnstone @I_an_actor]

@DavidLammy ‘A massive mandate’?!
Oh come on, David! Labour did not get the support of the UK people - the Tory vote collapsed! Jeez…

@TheMonologist Brilliant interview

[Iain Johnstone @I_an_actor]

@lembitopik For once I agree with you!

[Iain Johnstone @I_an_actor]

@Keir_Starmer Oh do fcuk off. Burns was a democrat!

[Iain Johnstone @I_an_actor]

@AndyBurnhamGM I’m very sad, Andy. The principal reason being your support for electoral reform (tho would that have changed if you’d eventually become leader?!).
We all have our red lines, I guess. Mine is never voting for a Party that is undemocratic & endorses FPTP. I can’t vote Labour.

@paulmasonnews Oh Paul, pick your enemies in a better way, please!
