[Shabana Mahmood MP @ShabanaMahmood]

It is an honour to remain as Home Secretary in @andyburnham’s Cabinet.

I may be biased, but it's the best job in the business.

We have begun the work of major reform, to make our streets safer and our immigration system fair for all. Now let’s finish the job.

@DanNeidle @K_Niemietz Dan, what about the moral argument for a wealth tax?
Once, we practiced anti trust laws, breaking up companies and monopolies to prevent the concentration of power and to prevent market distortion.
Could it not be argued, that the same principle should apply to individuals too?

[Count Binface @CountBinface]

Labour, Tories, Lib Dems and Greens: I demand you stand down in Clacton. I will be a unity candidate and pledge to build at least one affordable house.

Nigel Farage says he wants The People versus the Establishment. So be it.

Leave him to me.

[Graham Lambert 💙 @100glitterstars]

I'm one of many who thought we were better than Tories, yet here we are following in their footsteps.
The idolisation of Burnham (see Boris Johnson) defies logic.
A proposed spending spree akin to a Truss budget that caused severe turmoil in financial markets also on the agenda.

@RestIsPolitics @RoryStewartUK @campbellclaret 2/2 and being able to download for flights is important too. You both talk about enshitification. Please stop being part of it. I've listened since day 1. A nice letter saying you've sorted it would restore my membership.

[Ross @rossmurray100]

@RestIsPolitics @RoryStewartUK @campbellclaret.

1/2 Your new website is very shiney but you've removed your main content! I don't want to be pushed to YouTube or Spotify. I hate those guys. I want to go to your website and listen to your content.

The trouble with fixing Britain's shambolic politics is that there are too many plausible explanations for what has happened.

I don't think it can just be bad luck. Britain has had five in a row of the most unsuited people in its history as Prime Minister, with a sixth almost certainly on the way. (I would like to be wrong.)

Is it institutional sclerosis in the British state binding their hands, and putting off more capable people from the job?

Is it bad conditions and pay for MPs creating a shallow talent pool?

Is it post-financial crisis scepticism about capitalism and economics, and fading memories of the 20th Century's mistakes?

Is it weak economic growth encouraging zero-sum politics?

Is the media environment rewarding charlatans?

Is it social media making backbenchers harder to control, or party memberships harder to ignore?

I genuinely don't know which of these are the strongest hypotheses. How can we even begin to fix the problem when we don't even know what its causes are?

@IAPonomarenko I forgot that back then every Ukraine video came with an awful thrash metal soundtrack. Slava Ukraini

[Marcel @illnevercallitx]

That's it. That's the best picture from Saturday's No Kings protests in the USA.

The literal Statue of Liberty being detained by police. It doesn't get much more poetic than this.

[Matthew Todd 🌏🔥 @MrMatthewTodd]

I’m not a fan of Starmer, but whatever he does – literally whatever he does - he is ripped apart, ripped to shreds, by the telegraph, Mail, express, Sun, spectator, the very same people who installed Boris Johnson and the appalling Liz Truss.
The same people who installed the governments that caused Brexit and the financial chaos that has ensued, the same people who have driven this country into the ground.
I’m sick to death of them.
They are the biggest threat to this country and all of us across the board, no matter what our politics are. We need to get billionaires out of the Media

[ChrisO_wiki @ChrisO_wiki]

Considering that Donald Trump currently has an approval rating of -70% in the UK, this is hardly an electoral problem for Keir Starmer. Things that have polled with a higher approval rating than Trump in the UK include:

* Brussels sprouts
* The British weather
* Marmite
* Airport queues
* Potholes
* Seagulls
* Estate agents
* Parking fines

@StephenM What a cunt you are

[Mother Of Eagles 🦅 @CCknockout]

@AOC Crickets of course, right NRA?

[Prem Thakker @prem_thakker]

Incredible and inevitable—

Police chief says ICE agents violated his own officers' civil rights while off-duty.

A female officer was boxed in by ICE agents who demanded her papers, pulled their guns on her, and knocked her phone down as she tried to film

[Save Our Citizenships @LetsStopC9]

There’s a war in Europe, and it’s not on the battlefield, it’s in your feed. The US, the ultra-rich, Russia, and online grifters are stoking division, anti-immigrant hate, and fake news to break the EU. This is an information war. Wake up. Resist.

[Myroslava Petsa @myroslavapetsa]

If you think Ukrainians’ve gotten used to Russia’s war, it’s the opposite. Every single day we see the things we shouldn’t see, feel the despair, fear and anger we shouldn’t feel, cry our eyes out. Then those among us who are lucky to be alive, we wipe our tears and persevere.

@MartinSLewis @MartinSLewis I'm pro climate-change policies and I'm pro paying for it, but I don't trust local government not to just swallow new money into social care budgets

[Camilla Tominey @CamillaTominey]

Let me just get this straight. London’s entire tube network ground to a halt because already well paid workers, with fat pensions, want even more money to work fewer hours? After TFL was bailed out by the taxpayer to the tune of £3.6bn three years ago? 🤡🤡🤡

[Andrew Lilico @andrew_lilico]

This strike must surely be the end for tube drivers? We haven't needed them for many years. The transport authorities must surely bite the bullet now & eliminate them entirely.

[Chris Smith @renewablesmiffy]

The reason all of the fossil fuel lobbyists and fossil fuel funded media and politicians push for new conventional Nuclear and SMR is because they know most of it will never be built and as such it poses no threat to traditional fossil fuel generation, in the way Renewables does.
