Keir took a Labour party that didn’t deserve the name and made it plausible. Then, his hard work and relentlessness let it dream again. Then, he won. He is a monumental figure in Labour history: his legacy will be a platform from which the next leader can build. Cheers, boss.

[David Lammy @DavidLammy]

I’ve known Keir since he was a lawyer. He was principled then, just as he is now, and throughout his career he has been driven by a deep sense of public service and duty to this country.

He transformed the Labour Party, rooted out antisemitism, restored trust and made our party electable again. He won a historic mandate to change Britain for the better and, most importantly, he delivered on that promise.

With Keir’s leadership, this Labour government brought stability back to our economy, cut NHS waiting lists, improved renters’ rights, began to fix the crisis we inherited in our courts and prisons, reduced small boat crossings, protected young people online, lifted half a million children out of poverty and restored Britain’s standing in the world. He put Britain back at the heart of Europe, stood firmly with Ukraine and rebuilt relationships with our allies.

Change promised, change fought for and change delivered. That is Keir Starmer’s legacy, and I am incredibly proud to have played my part in it.

'Don't chair a COBRA meeting' is a really bad take in the middle of this crisis.

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

Rather than chairing yet another COBRA meeting tomorrow, the Prime Minister should cut energy bills, get Britain drilling, and axe the tax rises.

Here’s my letter to Keir Starmer👇

[Josh Kaile @JDKaile]

I remember when people like Timothy trumpeted freedom of speech.

Now it's just an excuse to shout hate at others and then cry foul when they're held accountable for it.

He should be embarrassed at being celebrated by Tommy Robinson, but he isn't.

Unserious and unfit to Govern

[Nick Timothy MP @NJ_Timothy]

I will not be silenced.

Labour are only demonstrating that they cannot see right from wrong.

They will not stand up for our way of life.

But we will.

[Josh Kaile @JDKaile]

This is disgusting.

Tommy Robinson is celebrating Nick's message as a win for his values and campaigns.

Nick's intolerance and incitement of hatred should be rejected in the strongest terms possible.

[Nick Timothy MP @NJ_Timothy]

Too many are too polite to say this.

But mass ritual prayer in public places is an act of domination.

The adhan - which declares there is no god but allah and Muhammad is his messenger - is, when called in a public place, a declaration of domination.

Perform these rituals in mosques if you wish. But they are not welcome in our public places and shared institutions.

And given their explicit repudiation of Christianity they certainly do not belong in our churches and cathedrals.

I am not suggesting everybody at Trafalgar Square last night is an Islamist. But the domination of public places is straight from the Islamist playbook.

Trafalgar Square belongs to all of us. It is a national memorial to our independence and our salvation.

Last night was not like a televised football match or a St Patrick’s Day celebration.

It was an act of domination and therefore division.

It shouldn’t happen again.

[David Lammy @DavidLammy]

Sikhs, Jews, Hindus and Christians are all invited to mark religious festivals on Trafalgar Square by @SadiqKhan.

Stop fanning the flames of division.

[Josh Kaile @JDKaile]

@AliceMLabour Fantastic news, many congratulations to you both, Alice!

[Josh Kaile @JDKaile]

@siennamarla @s8mb @pursuitofprog Agreed. We'll know the state and public services are in a good place when most caseworkers have nothing left to do (but I won't hold my breath).

[Josh Kaile @JDKaile]

@horton_official Congrats Helena!

[Josh Kaile @JDKaile]

Welcome to the Labour Party @DarrenJohnson66, you're very welcome!

[Darren Johnson @DarrenJohnson66]

I've joined @UKLabour. As an environmentalist and left-leaning social democrat, my views are now far closer to Labour than the increasingly radicalised Greens and are much better reflected in the work of people like Ed Miliband and Sadiq Khan than by Zack Polanski or Mothin Ali.

[PoliticsHome @politicshome]

There is fury among parliamentary staff after being given a smaller pay rise than their MP bosses

IPSA said the decision reflects the growing demands on MPs, including "higher levels of complex casework, and abuse and intimidation"

However, staff say the "mind-blowingly tone deaf" move fails to appreciate the pressures they are under

@lisagillmore, GMB's staff branch president, told PolHome: "The GMB MPs’ and Peers’ Staff Branch wants to see a fair pay deal for everyone working in Parliament, but struggle to understand why IPSA think the cost of living is 1.5 per cent lower for caseworkers, researchers and office managers than it is for MPs"

How NOT to respond to accusations that you have a problem with women...

[Times Radio @TimesRadio]

“If you, Kate, think that this is important, then you need your head checking.”

Robert Jenrick says he finds suggestions he's dismissive of female journalists and politicians "offensive".

If you can’t keep your own resignation letter secure, you probably shouldn’t be anywhere near the nuclear codes.

Just sayin’

This season of the Traitors is getting WILD!

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

I have sacked Robert Jenrick from the Shadow Cabinet, removed the whip and suspended his party membership with immediate effect.

I was presented with clear, irrefutable evidence that he was plotting in secret to defect in a way designed to be as damaging as possible to his Shadow Cabinet colleagues and the wider Conservative Party.

The British public are tired of political psychodrama and so am I. They saw too much of it in the last government, they’re seeing too much of it in THIS government.

I will not repeat those mistakes.
