@SW_Help Just run them over

[Lissa Evans @LissaKEvans]

Margo Leadbetter was snobbish, humourless and entitled, & Penelope Keith managed to make her into one of the most adored (and oddly vulnerable) characters ever seen on a sitcom. She delivered every line as if it were a jewelled crown on a velvet cushion. An utter genius.

Cunts trespassing on the line between Vauxhall and Clapham junction so no trains are running in 30 degree heat. Just run the bastards over.

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.

If the UK rejoined the Single Market there would be £42bn a year to spend, jobs galore and it would kill Nigel Farage.

Lets do it.

Utter tripe from ITV. Why does everything now smack of a lame Traitors copy #NobodysFool

Greg Davies is very lacklustre #BAFTATVAwards

There is an escape route for Labour from certain disaster at the general election: use their Commons majority to ram through PR. It’s cynical, + they’d never govern alone again, but it locks Reform out of No10. The left (Lab, Gr, LD) still have a majority over the right in the UK

[Ted Smith 🇪🇺 @TedUrchin]

Right, you Reform voting fuckwits, here’s your leader, @Nigel_Farage trying to appear like an ordinary bloke down the pub with a pint in one hand and a copy of the Sun in the other.
Here’s a few facts for you.
1 He is the son of a well known stockbroker.
2 He was a Dulwich schoolboy.
3 He worked in the City for 18 years mostly as a commodities broker.
4 A billionaire has recently given him £5 million, others have donated huge sums too.
So, do really think he gives a flying fuck about you or your life?
No, of course he doesn’t.
In fact, you are little more than excrement under his feet and you are such a thick piece of shit you cannot even see it.
He is USING you.
I despair.

Simon Cowell’s t-shirt is covered with dandruff (or fag ash). What a mess. Is there no wardrobe on the show? #BritainsGotTalent

[David @composter]

@OlivierAwards still shameful that you refuse to recognise Wigs, Hair and Make Up. If any of those winning productions tonight had no HMU presence on stage, there would be no magic. And it would look awful. Do the right thing next year #olivierawards

[David @composter]

@StageySarah And fuck all reference to wigs, hair and make up
