Remember this? As relevant as ever:
"I’m closer to a Jamaican born brickie than I am Jacob Rees-Mogg. I've got more in common with a Polish hotel maid than I do with Nigel Farage…All this anti-immigration, anti-foreigner shite is doing is dividing the working class”
@electra_rhodes Yep...its def a thing. I'm currently using some rather bright tartan ones which, not unsurprisingly, were in Dads unopened pile. He was v much a large white cotton hanky man...so these were not from a close friend!
I asked the government if it accepts the ICJ's ruling that the occupation of Palestine is illegal.
The minister told me that the judgement was "extremely complex".
What is so complex about respecting international law?
Yet another Labour u-turn. Pensioners are now paying for the economic crimes of the Tories. The poorest always pay in this country whilst the wealthy get even richer.
“Large parts of the world roast in punishing heat. Hot weather fuels crackling wildfires that burn homes to a crisp, and triggers silent waves of mass mortality that spill through hospital wards and retirement homes”
Climate crisis is here.

If Starmer was really strong he’d be personally fielding all the tough questions on the morning news programmes explaining why he has suspended 7 of his MPs
- Apsana Begum
- Imran Hussain
- Rebecca Long Bailey
- Ian Byrne
- Richard Burgon
- Zarah Sultana
- John McDonnell
Suspended for wanting to take children out of poverty.
They are the MPs with the most talent and integrity in parliament. My respect to all of them.
I'm deeply alarmed by the sentences handed to climate activists today over peaceful protests.
I agree with the UN Special Rapporteur that this "marks a very dark day for fundamental human rights in the UK"
I'll be raising this and our draconian anti-protest laws in Parliament.
