If you want to know how good I would be in government, just look at the only thing I have ever actually achieved - Brexit. If you think that went well, vote Reform!

Keir Starmer has said Andrew Mounbatten-Windsor should testify before US Congress about links to late child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

What's happen to small boat crossing in January? The data shows we've seen the lowest number of crossing for a January since 2021. Plus, we've seen a lot of 'firsts' across the month where plans to tackle dangerous crossing announced last year have come into force, or been used for the first time.

I bet he’s sweating now.

This is what’s known as dodgy as fuck… Farage is in hock to murky foreign billionaires, taking their money to prioritise their interests if they buy him power. He’s exploiting people’s racism and anger to pretend he’s on their side. But he’s already sold them out. www.thetimes.com/article/660a...

For someone without apparently a political axe to grind. Angela Rippon certainly had quite a lot to say about the Gov on Kuenssberg. All of which could have easily been said by a tory shadow minister or Reform mouthpiece.

No fireworks. No parties. No flags. No celebrations. No comments from the Brexit leaders. No "wasn't that a great idea." Six years after we left the EU - everyone knows it was a disaster. But....

Bruce Springsteen singing his new song "Streets of Minneapolis" at our very own First Avenue. A place where amazing artists like Prince got their start - this venue means so much to our state and it's incredible to see Bruce bring our community together.

Christ allfuckinmighty 🫣‼️ So mortifying and embarrassing 😳 🫣... and worse to think that these people have learned nothing since then and probably still believe this garbled rubbish 😖

I commented below on a post about Trump and his cabinet of cultist tools. It potentially and realistically applies to Farage and his RefUKkers. Warning : Please 🙏🏼 UK voters, don't let these ghouls get a foothold in the government of this country as you can be sure they will trash everything decent.

Labour chooses Angeliki Stogia for Gorton and Denton byelection. Angeliki Stogia, a Manchester city councillor, was chosen to fight the seat. The byelection was triggered by the resignation of the former Labour MP Andrew Gwynne because of ill health. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Let me get this straight. Boris Johnson is backing a campaign to deliver the ‘proper Brexit’ that Boris Johnson didn’t deliver whilst in power?

Delighted that Angeliki Stogia is Labour’s candidate for Gorton & Denton by-election. She’s a strong Mancunian woman with Labour values & a record of delivery. All our doorstep work is clear, only Labour can win against Reform. Don’t risk voting for others. We chose unity & hope over division.

UK and EU to explore renewed talks on defence cooperation. Keir Starmer says he wants to ‘go further’ in relations with Brussels as ministers look to restart stalled negotiations. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Richard Littlejohn wrote about fly-tipping in yesterday’s Mail, today Boris Johnson turns his attention to a bus driver sacked for beating up a thief. Anything, literally *anything*, to avoid addressing the now utterly undeniable shame & humiliation of their pathetic cheerleading for Donald Trump…

So Labour has its candidate for Gorton and Denton. Best of luck, Angeliki Stogia!

Congratualtions to Angeliki Stogia, who has been picked as the Labour candidate for the Gorton & Denton by-election. She has been a councillor on Manchester City Council since 2012. She was born in Greece, but moved to Manchester 30 years ago for university. She is a naturalised British citizen.

Angeliki Stogia has been selected as Labour candidate in the Gorton & Denton by-election.

The mask is slipping on Reform’s Gorton and Denton campaign. Labour is the only Party who can beat them.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Just how bad are the latest Epstein files? I mean does he need to invade Iran now?

Remembering Gene Hackman on his birthday (January 30, 1930 – February 18, 2025) 💙🕊 He was incredible in "Mississippi Burning" and this quote is still applicable...

“I feel it is my noble duty not to allow my chains of office to be put through a process.” Noble, my arse.

Welcome to the rebellions my favourite episode of season 2 of andor. Insanely well written. Incredible to watch.

Reform council chair Edward Harris resigned after he was caught by local authorities illegally running two unsafe rental properties.. If he hadn’t been caught Harris in true Reform grifter style would still be preying on the very poor, renting unsafe accommodation.. The People’s Party my arse❗️😡

Farage has no judgement. Major calls he has got wrong: -Brexit -Trump -Putin -Climate change -Truss budget -team selection (e.g. his Welsh leader convicted of taking Putin bribes) -dodgy income and donors He lacks the competence & judgement to be trusted with anything important

Let me be clear: if you steal from London’s tradespeople, you will be brought to justice. With City Hall backing, the Met is cracking down on theft - protecting livelihoods, catching offenders and keeping Londoners safe.

Another reason why he’s signing up the most disgraced & useless Tories: they’re measurably preferable to the characters he most naturally attracts.

Matt Goodwin is mass deleting tweets.

The Boss has always stood for and spoke out for social justice. Here are the lyrics to the song he just released in response to the terror being unleashed in Minneapolis.

"We'll take our stand for this land & the stranger in our midst..." Powerful. Brutal. Inspirational. A loving tribute to Renée Good, Alex Pretti & the good people of Minneapolis. Plus, it name-checks all the villains: the Puppy Killer🐶, Pee-Wee German🇩🇪, the Orange Atrocity🍊💩 & above all: ICE🧊🚫 1/

A chilly session in Gorton & Denton tonight, big thank you to the Labour team out pounding the pavement and speaking to residents. The only way of keeping Reform UK out is by voting Labour, so we can stay focused on bringing down the cost of living for families.

Freeze peach

Donald Trump has always claimed he won Georgia in the 2020 election - which he lost. The FBI has now seized the ballots, and commissioner Mo Ivory says she has "no confidence" they won't be tampered with so Trump finally gets the result he wants www.thenewsagents.co.uk/article/trum...

Donald Trump has described Bruce Springsteen as “highly overrated”, “not a talented guy” and a “pushy, obnoxious jerk”. Just remember, Bruce became the Boss by virtue of his talent… Donald inherited his fortune. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Screenshots of the apparent tweet have been doing the rounds on social media www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/ref...

On almost everything – fraud, polarisation, radicalisation, misinformation – evidence suggests that over 60s are in much more urgent need of online protection and education than teenagers. But that issue gets zero political attention, and is a total non-starter. Nothing good will come of it.

Reform UK would scrap Labour's policy to cut the cost of school uniform, set to save families across our country £73 million a year. When almost half of parents are worried about uniform costs, as Education Secretary I'm here to 'interfere'. Labour is on the side of families.

I’m sure Indian billionaire, Sunny Varkey, wants to give Farage a ton of cash to improve the lives of the people of Clacton. And definitely not to lobby for crypto or fossil fuels or to have first dibs on the firesale of British assets (eg the NHS) that Farage is bartering for power. FFS wake up UK.

Farage is in Dubai hosting a lunch for Indian billionaire Sunny Varkey, the latest non-UK resident to back Reform.

Paging @iaindale.bsky.social x

Now there is independent proof Zack Polanski was lying to his supporters. It's not just me saying it, but Full Fact has investigated and confirmed it. Will Zack apologise? Will he tell his supporters he deliberately lied and misread them? Will the proven liar resign as Green party leader?

"Reform's press release notes he was 'first in his family' to go to university – a ‘fact’ that raised eyebrows given his father, who was awarded a CBE by the Queen for his services to the NHS, acquired a Master’s in Business Administration in the 1980s, and a PhD during Tony Blair’s first term."

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara told his officers that they have a duty to intervene if they see ICE committing crimes and will be fired if they don't. We need a lot more of this.
