Great to see Victoria Derbyshire fronting LK on Sunday. She needs to replace Tory stooge Laura Kuenssberg permanently. Please retweet or like if you agree. #BBCLauraK

The Prime Minister’s speech was straight out of Enoch Powell’s playbook.

ANNE SCARGILL
The OTJC are very sad to learn the news that Anne Scargill has died. Anne’s enthusiasm and passion for fighting for a better world will be sadly missed. We have lost a comrade, a sister and a wonderful friend.

Rest in Power Anne.

@Admiral_JKirk Vicky Derbyshire has always been from a different universe to Laura thingy. No comparison at all. @VickyDerbyshire is the very best journalist on telly at the moment and has been fur many years.

[Martin Upham @MartinUpham]

@Admiral_JKirk Hear, hear. Now that faisal hussein has left has few options @BBCNewsnight has few options. Then again why is the supremely competent Ms Derbyshire only on Mondays to Wednesdays?

[Mac @Admiral_JKirk]

The time has come to dispense with Laura Kuenssberg and replace her with the less biased and more competent Victoria Derbyshire. Like or repost if you agree. #BBCLauraK

[Martin Upham @MartinUpham]

Why then she present @Newsnight Monday to Friday?

#bbclaurak #laurakuenssberg Does anyone want Laura Kuenssberg to remain as presenter of the Sunday Morning Politicial Show
We pay the ridulous wages of these people and we should be allowed a say surely
Victoria Derbyshire is a SERIOUS Journalist

"This is an incredibly difficult but an incredibly important moment for Keir Starmer.”

Labour's Ayesha Hazarika says the PM has “shown he can step up at this incredibly important time" ahead of his trip to Washington next week.

@MarinaPurkiss Should have listened to Corbyn!

[Martin Upham @MartinUpham]

@We_OwnIt @WindrushWasp Of course it does but @UKLabour is just too gutless to take such a radical step.

[We Own It @We_OwnIt]

The facts: almost £1 billion of bill payers' money spent just so that Thames Water can carry on ripping of its customers and polluting our rivers and streams.

Water needs to be taken into public ownership.

@MartinUpham @Evilgenius222 @Feargal_Sharkey @UKLabour Yes and they could do it without cost as they are insolvent even if they haven't legally declared themselves as such
