Why on earth are the U.K. news channels all covering live the US President reading a list of names of all his friends and cronies? Junk TV at its worst. Rambles like this should be recorded and then reported upon if he actually says anything newsworthy
The next Labour leader must move decisively away from the status quo to beat Reform.
That means giving power and wealth to working class people. It means a democratic revolution, rent controls and public ownership of water.
It means someone who isn't Wes Streeting.
Just a thought. Wes Streeting owes his political status to the support he’s received over years from Peter Mandelson & Morgan McSweeney at Labour Together. He wouldn’t make a move against Keir Starmer without Mandelson’s say so. So look on this as Mandelson’s & Morgan’s revenge.
Any broadcaster airing Wes Streeting on the future funding of the NHS should, for transparency, also show the people and companies linked to private health who are paying him to say it.
@Keir_Starmer I had a fairly clear picture of what constituted terrorism and I took the crime very seriously. Now around 2000 citizens have been arrested as terrorists, most for sitting in peaceful protest with signs, you have destroyed the consensus of what is terrorism.
@Keir_Starmer Fine platitudes Prime Minister but are you listening to why around 2000 citizens have been arrested as terrorists for sitting peacefully with signs criticising your Government’s actions? Do you ever look at yourself and ask how you are contributing to division rather than unity?
Nick Robinson interviews selection of Labour party members on Today programme at 7.35. It evidences the near despair our members feel at performance of the government & refer to the role played by Morgan McSweeney. A choice is emerging for Keir. Either McSweeney goes or he does.
Israel is a rogue state, making the whole world unsafe.
The Israeli President should be handcuffed when he lands on British soil, not given red carpet treatment.
I’ve been warning about attempts to fix the Deputy Leadership election – and what I've heard is now being proposed is the mother of all stitch-ups. Just a couple of days to secure MPs’ nominations!
This is a desperate move to keep Labour members’ voices out of this race and to dodge serious discussion on what’s gone wrong over the last year - from the positions on disability benefits cuts, on winter fuel payments, on Gaza and more. This outrageous timetable shows a leadership that's unwilling to listen and to learn the lessons needed if we’re to rebuild support and stop Nigel Farage.
@Keir_Starmer Why do you post this sort of rubbish. Look at the comments. It’s a fee gift to the right and the fascists. Maybe that’s what you want but, if not, you have no right to be a Labour PM. Are you a foreign agent?
@Keir_Starmer And no one should be restricted to their home by bail conditions after a police officer decides a cardboard sign is terrorism. Policing by consent has been killed by you and Yvette Cooper.
The Gaza (Independent Public Inquiry) Bill would uncover the full scale of UK complicity in war crimes.
On Friday, when it returns to Parliament, the government must decide: will it block our efforts to establish the truth?

The order published today by Yvette Cooper to proscribe Palestine Action as a terrorist group lists them alongside the Maniacs Murder Cult & Russian Imperial Movement/Legion. To compare a protest movement like PL with these violent, murdering terrorists is beyond all credibility
The government's plan to proscribe Palestine Action is part of a wider crackdown on protest. Instead of taking steps to prevent genocide, the gov wants to criminalise people demanding justice for Palestinians. Sign the petition to oppose this plan: https://t.co/6bWq830cXZ
Surprised to receive an email in the name of @DanielKebedeNEU on the spending review saying "we have a long way to go but this is really promising" when it evidently isn't. Yes, let's celebrate victories when we have won but let's always be honest with members too when we haven't
