John Robinson deserves better.

Britain deserves better.

An area of forest the size of London is lost every week due to #deforestation.

But how much do you really know about what's causing deforestation? And how we can stop it? #FightForYourWorld https://t.co/nVTLvXMJOi

A moment we’ve all been waiting for – the official trailer for 'David Attenborough: A Life on Our Planet'.

Knowing our natural world like no other, there’s never been a more urgent time to hear his story. #AttenboroughFilm

[James Edwards @Jeds1996]

@JennieGenSec deserves all our prayers, and support. But @tom_watson is not wrong to keep being relentlessly impatient to rid the Party of antisemitism. Leaders speak up, admit and try to fix problems, not deny/mitigate them to protect friends, the Party needs more Tom Watson’s.

[Claudia Webbe @ClaudiaWebbe]

@tom_watson your engaged in public attacks on the Labour Party’s General Secretary @JennieGenSec despite your clear knowledge she is receiving chemotherapy treatment for cancer. This is not behaviour befitting of the Office of Deputy Leader. You should consider your position?

[Tony Blair Institute for Global Change @InstituteGC]

Tony Blair: Jeremy Corbyn's comments that inequality & social mobility have been ignored for decades are the latest charge in what is now a mantra: that the Thatcher, Labour & current Govts are all the same.

This is bad politics & worse history. Time to set the record straight👇

The response of one of the few actual leaders of the Labour Party who still has dignity and integrity

[Tom Watson @tom_watson]

Here's my thoughts on Theresa May's resignation.

[James Edwards @Jeds1996]

Disliking @theresa_may politically is one thing, but like all former PMs she earnestly tried to do her best. Yet the leader of the opposition can’t muster up the integrity to thank her for her service, instead using the occasion for snide self-serving remarks. Pure pettiness.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Theresa May is right to resign. She's now accepted what the country's known for months: she can't govern, and nor can her divided and disintegrating party.

Whoever becomes the new Tory leader must let the people decide our country’s future, through an immediate General Election.

"Change the way you do things", Tom Watson tells man who hasn't changed his mind about anything in 35 years of politics:

[James Bickerton @JBickertonUK]

85% of British Jews think anti-Semitism has "significantly infiltrated all levels" of the Labour Party. There are two possibilities:

1. 85% of British Jews are wrong.
2. Len McCluskey is wrong.

Think I know which I'm going with.

[James Edwards @Jeds1996]

@Arisinfrettt @jeremycorbyn @UKLabour They aren’t militants. States must sometimes engage in conflict such as in Syria, which these MPs supported. Pacifism like @STWuk advocate is a noble belief, however isolationism and refusal to intervene to protect innocent lives is not noble, it is cowardly.

[James Edwards @Jeds1996]

Incredibly naive opinion, that’s like blaming people for fleeing a house that is ablaze, rather than blaming the person who set the house ablaze in the first place. In this case @jeremycorbyn is to blame for allowing militants back into @UKLabour #LabourSplit

[Faiza Shaheen @faizashaheen]

How can this Independent Party act like they care about inequality and the working class when they are essentially helping the Tories? Good job 👏🏾 #LabourSplit

[James Edwards @Jeds1996]

@AngelaRayner Removing the Tories? That’s the aim? This is @UKLabour problem, Tories are not the enemy, they are just a party who have different solutions. Poverty, Illness, etc these are our enemies. Cooperation, compromise and civility with Tories is not a negative, it’s part of Governing.

[James Edwards @Jeds1996]

Incredibly insightful and honest statement by @angelasmithmp she is a credit to her constituency. Her statement is well worth a read.

[James Edwards @Jeds1996]

What @STWuk don’t understand is that a nation has a moral obligation to intervene to save innocent lives such as in Syria, this requires military intervention. Pacifism is an honorable belief, but isolationism is not, it is cowardly and calling these MPs warmongers is pathetic.

[Stop the War Coalition @STWuk]

Every MP in The Independent Group (The Dinner Party) has consistently voted for war, foreign military intervention and the renewal of Trident.

A warmongering foreign policy is central to the so-called values they talk about. #LabourSplit

[James Edwards @Jeds1996]

Why should they stand in a by-election? The policies and beliefs that their constituents supported them because of haven’t changed. What has changed is @UKLabour which has become a divisive environment, where the loudest voices are dominant over the wisest. #LabourSplit

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Labour MPs won their seats with hugely increased majorities by standing on a manifesto of public ownership, scrapping tuition fees, hiking taxes on the rich, and ending austerity. Any MP splitting from Labour should have the decency to call an immediate by-election #LabourSplit

[James Edwards @Jeds1996]

When Corbyn refused to support @UKLabour his integrity was praised. When 7 MPs decide that they can’t remain part of the anti-Semitic melting pot that Labour now is they are branded traitors. More feckless thuggery from the dominant militant branch destroying Labour #LabourSplit

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

I am disappointed that these MPs have felt unable to continue to work together for the Labour policies that inspired millions at the last election and saw us increase our vote by the largest share since 1945.
