Burnham now due Euston 13.22, 13
minutes late. Avanti PR people must be furious.

[Andy Burnham @andyburnham]

Keir has given huge service to our country and I want to thank him for his leadership and dedication during such a challenging period.

His decision marks the beginning of a transition and it is important that this process is conducted in an orderly and responsible way. I will put myself forward as part of this process.

The country expects stability, seriousness and a continued focus on the issues that matter most and that is what it will get.

As we move forward, our priority must be to work together to get the country back to where we all want it to be. People want to see progress on economic growth, cost of living, public services, housing and opportunities for the next generation. Political change should never distract from the responsibility to improve people's lives.

The Labour movement has always been at its strongest when it looks forward with confidence and purpose. This is what we will do from here and we will make sure this transition is a positive process of renewal for our party and our country.

[Angela Rayner @AngelaRayner]

Our party has suffered a historic defeat.

Many good Labour colleagues have lost their seats despite working hard for those they represented. We have lost good Labour administrations and lost the chance for more.

What we are doing isn’t working, and it needs to change. This may be our last chance.

The Labour Party must now live up to our name: we must be the party of working people.

We’ve heard the same on the doorstep as we’ve seen in the polls - the cost of living is the top issue for voters of all parties. People have turned to populists and nationalists because we have not done enough to fix it.

Living standards are barely higher than they were a decade and a half ago. People feel hopeless - that the cost of living crisis will never end, and now they see oil and gas companies use global instability to post record profits.

Once again, ordinary people are paying the price for decisions they didn’t make. It’s no wonder that across the UK, working people feel the system is rigged against them.

Things can be so much better than this. Countries including Spain and Canada have shown that economies can grow and people can thrive when governments stay true to labour and social democratic values and put people first. We need to learn from that.

In London, we lost young people who fear they will never afford a home. In my patch and across the north, we lost working people whose wages are too low and costs too high. In Scotland and Wales, people do not currently see Labour as the answer. 

We are in danger of becoming a party of the well-off, not working people.

The Peter Mandelson scandal showed a toxic culture of cronyism. 

Decisions like cutting winter fuel allowance just weren’t what people expected from a Labour government.

For too long, successive governments have allowed wealth and power to concentrate at the top without a plan to ensure the benefits of economic growth are shared fairly. The result is an economy that does not work for the majority, with wealth concentrated in too few hands. This level of inequality, alongside squeezed living standards, is the outcome of a model built on deregulation, privatisation, and trickle-down economics.

But we have the chance to fix this.

In intensive talks at highest level in 47 years, Iran engaged with U.S in good faith to end war.

But when just inches away from "Islamabad MoU", we encountered maximalism, shifting goalposts, and blockade.

Zero lessons earned

Good will begets good will.
Enmity begets enmity.

[Marjorie Taylor Greene 🇺🇸 @mtgreenee]

Trump was elected to go to war against America’s deep state and to end America’s involvement in foreign wars.
Not to kill an entire civilization while waging a foreign war on behalf of Israel, another foreign country.

[Ro Khanna @RoKhanna]

We need to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Trump.

Threatening war crimes is a blatant violation of our constitution and the Geneva Conventions.

[Bella Morris @Belorris]

I swear that 90% of people on X are firmly standing with Iran. Am I right?

[Mario Nawfal @MarioNawfal]

FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER, IRAN JUST SIMULTANEOUSLY FIRED MISSILES AT QATAR, THE UAE, BAHRAIN AND KUWAIT

This is a warning of what could follow if Trump delivers on his threats

[Candace Owens @RealCandaceO]

The 25th amendment needs to be invoked. He is a genocidal lunatic. Our Congress and military need to intervene. We are beyond madness.

[Sasha Meets Russia @sashameetsrus]

Now imagine if Putin had said about Ukraine what Trump is saying about Iran.

[Lowkey @Lowkey0nline]

Israel has just killed Lebanese journalist Fatima Ftouni. I am honoured to have known her.

Just at the beginning of the month she reported on Israel killing seven members of her own family live on air.

[George Galloway @georgegalloway]

Leaving Moscow today I’m reflecting yet again that this a far more European city than any other. More cultured more educated more safe more united than ANY other. The problem for some is that this simply cannot be denied.

[Daniel Davis Deep Dive @DanielLDavis1]

Trump claims "we are gathered at a moment of bold action..." Please tell me he's not about to order our airborne troops and Marines to launch a high-casualty suffering ground op in Iran; an attack that would likely fail to secure anything of operational significance but result in many dead Americans...

Pls.

[Bushra Shaikh @Bushra1Shaikh]

Iran cannot trust the U.S: Not once but twice negotiations were underway and Iran still ended up getting attacked. Pakistan is now stepping in as the "middle-man" while thousands of Navy marines are headed to the Middle-East. Obvious misdirection by Trump, the perpetual liar.

[Marina Purkiss @MarinaPurkiss]

Is it not news-worthy…

That an 18-month-old Palestinian toddler was allegedly held in detention for 10 hours

Tortured by Israeli soldiers using burning cigarettes and nails

All to force a confession from his father?

Look at him

Because our press will rather you didn’t.

[Seyed Mohammad Marandi @s_m_marandi]

There are no direct or indirect talks taking place with the Trump regime.

[Tucker Carlson @TuckerCarlson]

Eternal God, in whose perfect kingdom no sword is drawn but the sword of righteousness, no strength known but the strength of love: So mightily spread abroad your Spirit, that all peoples may be gathered under the banner of the Prince of Peace, as children of one God; to whom be dominion and glory, now and for ever. Amen.

- John Henry Newman

[Candace Owens @RealCandaceO]

No one ever should sign up for United States military outside of those who wish to join the IDF.
Go home and defend your neighborhoods instead.
Let the Mark Levins and Ben Shapiros send their offspring instead.
We are an occupied nation.
This is why Charlie was murdered.

[Mark-Christopher Chetta @Marki333]

A consequence of the arrest of the King's brother has had the unfortunate natural effect of blocking out this building situation.

[Mark-Christopher Chetta @Marki333]

The word is that Trump is planning to strike Iran this weekend. This will unleash an immense regional conflict and global crisis. The build up of forces indicates this and the likelihood that the negotiations were a stopgap until those forces are ready.
