Reactivated for 2024 election commentary. Rock on!!

We have the worst media class in the world, it’s like being trapped listening to elderly right-wing relatives talking nonsense.

[The Justin Horton Show @ejhchess]

Someone's still pretending Boris Johnson was some kind of political savant. How quaint. It's like seeing a red telephone box, or a car with running boards.

[Joe Guinan @joecguinan]

Absolutely useless. A disqualifying moral failure. Nobody needs another creature of the genocidaires.

[Joe Guinan @joecguinan]

The deep political incoherence and irresponsibility of this when Burnham hasn’t been pinned down on much—and where he has it’s basically Starmerism 2.0. These people will hand-deliver a Reform government while breathlessly insisting they are the only ones who can stop it.

[ganesha redgrave @discostuart_]

If a "progressive" politician folds on trans rights and supporting palestine because they're unpopular with the media class, they will fold in every other progressive stance they have until they're basically starmer

Please retweet.

Genuinely, who is going to vote for this in May?

Who?

Why would you?

PEOPLE WHO DESPISE TREE-HUGGERS AND WIND FARMS: Disgracefully, the Greens don't even talk about the environment any more. In my latest Spectator essay, I trace the roots of this latest trahison des clercs...

It’s my birthday and I really would be very pleased if we could have world peace.
Thank you.

US bombers loading up on UK airstrips before raining down bombs on Iran.

Parliament wasn't consulted - and polling shows huge numbers oppose it.

When do MPs get a say over our involvement in this war?

[Joe Guinan @joecguinan]

Another war crime and an attempt by the Israelis to set the entire region ablaze. They are playing confidently with house money, knowing the Americans will pick up their tab. Genocidaires and war criminals.

[Count Binface @CountBinface]

I’m delighted to announce that this morning I have joined Reform UK. Nigel Farage is a principled politician, and his team are ready for government.

@joecguinan What’s extraordinary is Alex Massie pretending to be a “serious journalist” while defending a far-right fiction rag like the Mail.

[Joe Guinan @joecguinan]

The Greens should promise war crimes trials of our leaders over Iran and Gaza. The prospect of holding these lying conniving evil bastards to account would be hugely politically galvanizing, restoring democratic accountability and the fear politicians ought to have of the public.

[Richard Seymour @leninology]

Reform fucked up. Common sense should have told them not to back this war. They instead were vociferous, unconditional and instantaneous in rallying behind Trump, and demanding others do so. They deserve the political price they're going to pay.

[Richard Seymour @leninology]

All this stuff is going to really damage Labour, and not in the particularly long run even if they somehow squeeze through. It's not just that the tactics are low-reaching and cynical; they are incompetently so, desperately so, utterly transparent, and being laughed at.

[Matt Zarb-Cousin @mattzarb]

If the Greens get the vote out they win. Labour’s comms now are almost exclusively negative against the Greens, not to win support for Labour but to try to suppress the Green vote. Farage enablers
