Ian Byrne has just won his re-selection.
In truth, we have all won. To have someone like Ian Byrne in that dump of a place, Parliament, fighting for us all gives us a little ray of hope.
Credit to the people of West Derby & Ian’s team on the ground.

Ask yourself…
Why would an older person’s Oyster card be accepted as voter ID?
But a younger person’s would not?
Then ask yourself, which way they typically vote
No question…
This is election rigging.
When Jeremy Hunt talks of "difficult decisions" he means difficult for you.
He doesn't mean difficult for the super-rich whose wealth has soared in the last decade.
There's no need for a single penny of cuts or tax rises on ordinary people.
It's a choice. Tax the rich instead!

The UK now has the worst health system in Europe.
In 2011, the UK had the highest ranked health system in the world.
It took them a decade to destroy our NHS.
“We ended free movement of people” says Sunak to cheers from Tory PM’s
It’s true - his Gov’t robbed British citizens of free movement - the ability to live & work in 27 different countries making generations of our children financially & culturally poorer
The first measure of civilisation is not the august institutions a nation may possess, not its magnificent buildings, its art or its rituals of state. It is the way it treats those who flee to its shores from persecution overseas.
The inability of dishonest people to tell the truth about Brexit makes honest conversations about asylum-seekers impossible. The people now inciting terrorism & making political capital are *precisely* the same people who promised that leaving the EU would solve these 'problems'.
How do you make voters feel better about their circumstances, without actually improving their lives? You performatively mistreat other people, who have no vote, to show your voters that someone sits below them in the pecking order.
That's what Manston, and Braverman, are about.
Dear @SuellaBraverman - an 'invasion' is when they overpower your military and take control of your government and institutions. When people come in powerless and poor, keen to work and contribute, that's called 'migration'. Hope that helps.
Yep - the Tories have been in power for twelve years and Home Secretary Suella Braverman is in Parliament right now blaming @UKLabour for the country’s broken asylum system
