United fan for 45 years. Would die happy if we never won anything again, but did the double over the Scousers every year. Never mistake kindness for weakness.
Dear Natalie, I may have missed it, but as the Minister for the Safety of Women and Girls, I would have thought that the Rape and Murder of a 2 year old baby girl may have prompted a shred of outrage? If I were you, I would be screaming my head off in the lobby of the Houses of Parliament! But then.. I am not a Labour MP!

Northern Ireland First Minister Michelle OโNeill responded to the brutal beheading of a local man by an African refugee by meeting with Muslims and Africans โ telling them she supports them and will not tolerate โracismโ from her own people.
End this woke gov.?
A. Yes

Spiteful Class Warrior. Her Family's Profit. Her Government's Hypocrisy.
Bridget Phillipson told the BBC this week that she is going to get a T-shirt printed saying spiteful class warrior. She said it with pride. She said it twice. She is welcome to wear it. But she might want to check the timing before she places the order.
On the same day she was celebrating the label, it emerged that her family made a 900 percent profit on a council house purchased through right to buy. Her mother Clare bought the two-bedroom property in Washington, Tyne and Wear in 1990 for ยฃ9,600, a 38 percent discount on its market value. The family sold it in May 2023 for ยฃ99,950. The scheme that built that wealth for her family is now being dismantled by the government she serves. Discounts will be cut from 35 percent to between five and 15 percent. Sales are expected to fall by 90 percent. The council tenants who might have done what her mother did will find the door considerably harder to open.
The profit itself is not the scandal. Her mother used a scheme that was legal, available and legitimate. Right to buy was designed precisely to give working class families the opportunity to own their home and build wealth. Good for them. The scandal is the sequence. The opportunity was taken. The ladder was climbed. Now it's being taken away. And the person helping to raise it is calling it class warfare and offering to print it on clothing.
She is not alone. Angela Rayner, who introduced the legislation restricting right to buy, personally benefited from the scheme when buying her property in Stockport. Two of the most prominent working class voices in Labour have both used a policy they are now making substantially less accessible to the next generation of working class families. Neither appears to see the contradiction. Phillipson has described it as improving lives. Rayner has described it as protecting social housing stock. Both descriptions carefully avoid the word hypocrisy.
The right to buy story sits alongside two others that complete the picture. Keir Starmer attended Reigate Grammar School on a bursary funded by charitable status, the same charitable status Phillipson has now removed from independent schools, closing over 100 of them and displacing over 43,000 pupils. The opportunity that helped form him has been taxed out of reach for the families who needed it most. And Phillipson holds the title Secretary of State for Women and Equalities while sitting on the EHRC code of practice that would implement a unanimous Supreme Court ruling on biological sex, a delay her own predecessor at the EHRC has publicly described as political.
Three policies. Three ladders. Three ministers who climbed them. Three ladders raised.
Phillipson's spokesman described the right to buy story as a vile smear campaign. That response does not address the substance. Nobody is smearing her mother for using right to buy. The question being asked is why the minister who benefited from that scheme, who benefited from charitable school status through a Prime Minister educated on a bursary, who holds the title Secretary of State for Women and Equalities while withholding women's legal protections, is celebrating the label spiteful class warrior rather than answering for the record.
The T-shirt idea is revealing because it signals that she regards the spite as the point rather than a regrettable byproduct. Not I am fighting for working class children despite appearing spiteful. But I am spiteful and proud of it. That is not class politics. It is class performance. And the working class families who cannot now access right to buy, who cannot now afford the independent schools that have closed, who cannot now trust that women-only wards mean what they say, are the ones paying for the performance.
"Phillipson has described it as improving lives. Rayner has described it as protecting social housing stock. Both descriptions carefully avoid the word hypocrisy."
@scarsmcu@FPLSportScience Honey, I have news for you. Theyโve not even played in these type of tournaments, never mind won them.
This is menโs football, not shitty womenโs. ๐
THE DOSSIER #18: Bridget Phillipson โ The Deceiver
Secretary of State for Education | Minister for Women and Equalities | Failed Deputy Leadership Candidate
Born 1983. Gateshead. Raised by a single mother in Washington, Tyne and Wear. Pregnant at sixteen. A son at seventeen. No university degree. Left formal education at sixteen. Now Secretary of State for Education. The irony is total. The arrogance is breathtaking.
Affiliations: Labour Party since age fifteen. UNISON former member and full-time union official. Labour Together think tank key figure, advisory board member since 2023, part of the Starmer inner circle that built the machine. Labour Friends of Israel, former listed supporter, now hidden. Fabian Society associated. The Bridget Phillipson Campaigns Ltd, her personal company for her failed deputy leadership bid, incorporated 2025, received ยฃ10,000 from Jim Murphy and ยฃ2,000 from Fast Foster & Company Ltd.
You promised 6,500 additional teachers. You delivered 978. You claimed "over 70% of the way to our target." You lied. The National Education Union poll shows 0% of teachers think you are doing "very well." Zero. Seventy-four percent say you are doing "quite badly" or "very badly." You taxed private schools to pay for teachers. Teacher numbers fell. Kemi Badenoch called you a "spiteful class warrior." She was right.
You posted on X: "Our state schools need teachers more than private schools need embossed stationery." The sneer of the class warrior. The snarl of the ideologue. Children were uprooted. Education was disrupted. Families were priced out. You called it progress. They call it destruction.
You took ยฃ60,000 from the pro-Israel lobby. You took ยฃ80,000 from Stuart Roden, shared with Lisa Nandy. You are bought. You are paid for. Your foreign policy is written by donors.
You blocked the Equality and Human Rights Commission guidance on single-sex spaces. The Supreme Court ruled in April 2025 that woman means biological sex. You tried to rewrite the judgment. You instructed government lawyers to delay, to obstruct, to betray women. Claire Coutinho exposed you: "Government lawyers, working under Bridget Phillipson's instruction, are trying to rewrite the Supreme Court judgment."
You refused to meet with women's rights charities. The charities that won the Supreme Court ruling. You betrayed them. You prioritised your personal ambition over women's safety. You prioritised the trans lobby over biological reality. Maya Forstater said it: "Extraordinary that a year after the Supreme Court judgement... the government has found another excuse for delaying."
You ran for deputy leader in 2025. You received 175 nominations. You were defeated by Lucy Powell. The Labour Party rejected you. The members saw through you. You set up a company to manage your campaign. Bridget Phillipson Campaigns Ltd. The personal vehicle for your personal ambition.
You are facing a legal challenge from the Good Law Project. Crowdfunded. The people are fighting back. Your trans guidance is being challenged in court. Your delays are being exposed. Your betrayals are being documented.
You are the Education Secretary who left education at sixteen. You are the Minister for Women who betrays women. You are the single mother who taxes families until they break. You are the working-class poster girl who serves the elite.
You have no degree. You have no mandate. You have no credibility.
Your career is over. Your credibility is ash. Your ministerial post is a corpse that has not yet fallen.
Congratulations. You are The Dossier. Your betrayal of Britain is complete.
