#OnThisDay 1981. The National Union of Mineworkers executives pledge to fight the proposed closure of up to fifty pits and the loss of 20,000 jobs.

An unprepared Thatcher government would later back down against the threat of strike action.

Forgetting of course the wise words of Wes Streeting once appointed to the Cabinet

'Its a noble pursuit, It's an act of charity to give money to politicians, I'm really proud of those who put money into politics.'

A genuine quote, what a fucking disgrace labour is.

[ADAM @AdameMedia]

After Jimmy Carter exposed Israel as an Apartheid regime, he was viciously smeared by the Israel lobby and the media, they cancelled his speaking events.

A former President of the United States, and they cancelled his events. Just let that sink in.

Yorkshire is divided into 3 Ridings, whose boundaries meet at the walls of the #CityOfYork:

1️⃣ East Riding
2️⃣ North Riding
3️⃣ West Riding

The City of York within the walls is thus the only part of Yorkshire not within one of the Ridings.

“The word 'apartheid' is exactly accurate…they are absolutely and totally separated."

I will remember Jimmy Carter as one of the only US Presidents to speak honestly about Palestine.

🚨 NEW: Shadow Health Secretary Victoria Atkins stands up at the dispatch box to shout at Environment Secretary Steve Reed while he is still speaking

Speaker: "The right honourable lady has behaved abominably"

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

So satisfying to watch Mick Lynch wipe the floor with Richard Madeley.

🚨 NEW: Prime Minister Keir Starmer praises Rishi Sunak

“In every exchange since the election, he has gone well beyond the usual standards of generosity and I thank him for that”

[Antonia Romeo @AntoniaRomeoUK]

Yesterday for the first time a female Lady Chief Justice swore in a female Lord Chancellor (officiated by a female Clerk of the Crown). History.

[ITVPolitics @ITVNewsPolitics]

Sunak jokes about how he became prime minister and how he lost the election

'Before you know it, you have a bright future behind you, and you're left wondering whether you can credibly be an 'elder statesman' at the age of 44'

[Simon Harris TD @SimonHarrisTD]

Thank you to Prime Minister @Keir_Starmer for hosting me as his first guest in Chequers.

Laura Kuenssberg dismissively refers to Labour's GB Energy, "That's apparently going to be the answer to all of the problems, bills are going to go down, we're going to have clean power by 2030.. Is what they're promising realistic?"

Greg Jackson, CEO of Octopus, "It's perfectly possible" @g__j

[David Lammy @DavidLammy]

Today I met with Israeli PM @netanyahu, and Palestinian Authority PM Mustafa.

Our message is clear: we need an immediate ceasefire, the immediate release of all hostages, the protection of civilians, unfettered access to aid in Gaza, and a pathway towards a two-state solution.
