You're literally a professional politician mate 🤡

[Jack Dart @JackWDart]

If people genuinely believe Burnham won’t receive the exact same media onslaught, they’ve not been paying attention.

Starmer is not, objectively, bad. This idea that he is somehow the worst PM in British history is frankly laughable.

Liz truss lasted 49 days, crashed the pound and was laughed out of Downing Street.

Since Labour took office, Keir Starmer’s government has:

• Scrapped the two-child benefit limit, lifting hundreds of thousands of children out of poverty and putting money back into some of the hardest-pressed households in the country.

• Expanded free school meals, cutting costs for families and making sure more children get a proper meal during the school day.

• Expanded funded childcare, reducing one of the biggest monthly costs facing working parents and making it easier for people to stay in work.

• Raised the National Living Wage, increasing pay for millions of low-paid workers.

• Strengthened workers’ rights, giving people greater protection against insecure work and bad employers.

• Introduced statutory sick pay from the first day of illness, so workers are less likely to choose between their health and their wages.

• Ended no-fault evictions, giving renters more security in their homes.

• Brought rail operators back into public ownership, taking key services out of failed private hands and giving the public a stronger stake in how they are run.

• Cut NHS waiting lists from their post-pandemic peak, meaning more patients are being seen sooner.

• Raised the state pension through the triple lock, protecting pensioners’ incomes against rising costs.

• Scrapped the old non-dom tax regime, making some of the wealthiest people in the country pay more fairly.

• Added VAT to private school fees, raising money from those most able to contribute.

• Removed business rates relief from private schools, ending an unjustified tax break.

• Increased neighbourhood policing, putting more officers and PCSOs back into communities.

• Helped bring knife crime down, meaning fewer families face the devastation of serious violence.

• Recorded the lowest homicide rate since the 1970s, a material improvement in public safety.

• Created Great British Energy, giving Britain a publicly owned clean energy company.

• Created the National Wealth Fund, backing investment in industry, infrastructure and clean energy.

• Passed planning reforms aimed at getting homes and major projects built faster.

• Improved relations with the EU, reducing diplomatic hostility and rebuilding practical cooperation.

• Agreed a UK-EU security partnership, strengthening cooperation on defence and European security.

• Signed a long-term partnership with Ukraine, reinforcing Britain’s support against Putin’s invasion.

• Secured new trade agreements, opening up markets for British businesses.

• Helped restore seriousness to government after years of scandal, chaos and decline.

People do not have to like Starmer. They do not have to vote Labour. But pretending this is the record of the worst Prime Minister in British history is absurd.

Rasmus Hojlund to Napoli confirmed. €50m total fee.
Hope he does well. Shame it didn't work out at MUFC.
Good striker who had good moments. MUFC fan.
Should've signed Harry Kane summer of '23.

@Nigel_Farage The sooner people see through your BS the better 👊

[Politics UK @PolitlcsUK]

🚨 WATCH: Nigel Farage is repeatedly heckled by MPs as he calls on Keir Starmer to end "two-tier policing"

Starmer: "His response has been to appeal for rage. That’s his response to a father who lost his son & asked for this not to happen... it shows exactly who he is"

Team suspected of spying on training sessions - EFL conducts an investigation within a week and kicks the team out of a competition immediately

115 financial charges - PL will get back to you on that in a few years

🚨 @Lord_Sugar in Sun Times

“Leaving Europe is the worst thing I have experienced in my whole time in business.”

“Johnson and Gove should be in jail. As a chairman I am obliged to tell the truth to my shareholders.”

“If I lie it’s a criminal offence. Politicians lie to the public — their shareholders — and get away with it.”

“All that bullshit about the 350 million quid going to the NHS after Brexit.”

There are places we pass through in life… and there are places that become part of who we are.
Manchester will forever be my home.

To the city, the club, and every supporter, my sincerest thank you. These past four years have been unforgettable, filled with moments my family and I will carry with us for the rest of our lives. There simply aren’t enough words to describe the happiness and warmth we’ve felt here.

Thank you for every cheer, every memory, and for making us feel at home from the very first day.

Forever a Red Devil ❤️

Immigration makes Britain brilliant.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

Excuse me. But banned why? Are we seriously saying Farage UK should have its own 24/7 news and propaganda channel with barely a peep from @Ofcom but if another party uses what Farage and Co have said in an election broadcast they can’t show it. Madness. Anyway do watch it. It is very powerful

[Curtis Daly @CurtisDaly_]

Had fuck all to say in person, posts on Twitter instead. Coward.

[Alex Turk @TurkTalksFC]

The real winner today is Wayne Rooney. His punditry stocks RISE.

What he said about Van Dijk, and then doubled down on to his face, was absolutely correct.

He was also spot on to shut down Walcott’s 2008 team comment.

Genuinely one of the best working pundits at the moment.

[Senator Marco Rubio: Archived @SenMarcoRubio]

No U.S. President should be able to withdraw from NATO without Senate approval.

Thankful my colleagues in Congress passed this bipartisan measure.

@EssexPR The polls are selected. Actually look at fact there is only one person delusional 🫠

[Jack Dart @JackWDart]

The media has convinced you that Keir Starmer is the worst Prime Minister in history. They're lying to you.
