One of my favourite quotes from one of my favourite books:
"My son displays a general garment and you claim it's cut to your fit? What a fascinating revelation."
The left has not shied away from talking about grooming gangs.
The complaint FROM THE FAR RIGHT is that the left has not repeated the racist conspiracy theories that they demand everyone repeat about grooming gangs.
That's what it's about. That's what it's always been about.
I honestly tweeted this as a joke to wind up fasho-tankies, and it's been doing so for the past 5 years - but as Labour takes drastic action to protect workers at Scunthorpe from sabotage by the Chinese Communist Party, I think it's apposite today 💥🚩✊
@paulmasonnews Paul. What the fuck are you talking about? Please name one way in which Corbyn has had a material impact on the amount of funding or armaments Ukraine has received.
🚨 NEW: The Government is considering each of the following in a 'radical overhaul' of the benefits system
- Stricter eligibility for Personal Independence Payments (PIP), particularly for mental health conditions like anxiety and depression
- Requring claimants to provide routine medical evidence instead of an assessment for PIP
- Requring the long-term sick to look for work with a reduction in sickness benefit payments to encourage this
- Abolishing the 'Limited Capability for Work or Work-Related Activity' (LCWRA) category, potentially cutting £5,000 per year for claimants
- Scrapping the Work Capability Assessment (WCA) and aligning with PIP assessments
- Shifting from regular PIP payments to one-off payments or means-testing
- Introducing a 'duty to engage' with employment services, including job preparation and training
Vouchers for specific equipment or aids instead of cash payments have been ruled out

This is a delicate moment. It’s a new day and yet so many are on edge. Our politics are inflamed, and social media only adds to the anxiety.
It seems that @elonmusk made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, but again, we appreciate that people are on edge.
In this moment, all sides should give one another a bit of grace, perhaps even the benefit of the doubt, and take a breath. This is a new beginning. Let’s hope for healing and work toward unity in the months and years ahead.
The "balls" to go after the most vulnerable people in society in order to placate some of the most comfortable, and certainly the most vicious.
Tell me again how this shower of bastards are better than the Tories?
🚨 NEW: Keir Starmer says he has 'the balls' to reduce Britain's benefits bill, despite opposition from Labour MPs
“We will be ruthless with cuts if that’s what’s necessary"

@JeremyVineOn5 Regardless, the number of people I know who watch the speech I could probably count on one hand, none of them stand for the national anthem and all of them would probably laugh at the idea that any of it is their "duty".
