Very telling that the problem these labour mps seem to have with it is how it will impact the party electorally, not that its in and of itself morally repugnant

The only good outcome is if it turns out to have been a Four Lions, bomb the mosque, radicalise the moderates, false flag

Absolute fever dream world where a massive, drawn out, international war is being discussed at NATO by two presidents, who are a decrepit game show host & a comedian & they're still doing that 'game show host sets up with a weird question/comedian smashes the punchline' Chat Show dynamic

Not only can they not afford homes they struggle to buy food after paying rent & power & water & council tax BUT I, Sir K, have ensured if they protest genocide or climate change I'll have them sent to prison for decades without charge. Oh yea, fuck trans & disabled people too. Take a fucking bow...

Hospital roofs replaced by rockets and guns. Buried in the smallprint - Starmer's defence plan means slashing funding for hospitals to pay for bullets and bombs. Will @andyburnham.bsky.social go along with this?

It’s so cool the way Keir Starmer and Shabana Mahmood appear to be handling his imminent exit from No. 10 the same way the IDF ramp up the killing and rubble doctrine whenever they suspect Washington might be about to tell them to cut it out and call a ceasefire.

This is such an important point.

"If Andy Burnham does anything left-wing Trump will DESTROY him so he HAS to lean right, sad as I am that this is the case." Zohran Mamdani went to the White House, called Trump and fascist and Trump beamed at him like he was male Ivanka.

obviously some things are subjective, but "financially bankrupt" isn't. from what i'm ale to gather when he took over the party had about £12m in the bank, now it has £2m

It’s going to hit 38 degrees this week, tarmac will literally start melting in this heat.

He's found a final rake on the way out, truly the best to ever do it.

Another defence of Israeli settler colonialism that’s aged like milk www.declassifieduk.org/revealed-ill...

We teach kids growing up that genocide is the highest crime humanity can commit and we must do everything we can to prevent it and then give people decades in prison if they try and stop weapons from being shipped for a genocide. 3 of the 4 only did destruction of property

The history of Northern Ireland and “state actors” is one of a deeply cosy relationship between loyalist terror groups and the British state. And then there’s the equally cosy connections between Loyalists and the English/Scottish Far Right. But sure, Mark, it’s the Russians at it again.

Can we decide once and for all whether a) There Is No Money Left For Anything, The Bond Markets Will Shit Plutonium or whether b) we need to spend eleventy quintillion pounds on missiles and new vibrating tanks, please. Work it out amongst yourselves then report back, if you like.

The argument for the BBC appears to be that we need a hypothetical BBC to protect against the risk of getting the kind of media which the BBC actually is

Just a reminder that when huge swathes of media were pretending that all Gen Z boys/men were into far right politics it was presented as a phenomenon we were supposed to examine very earnestly to understand their concerns and challenges….

are you just going to do this for every generation

I actually think it's an important thing to look at the police response to Zack Polanski's very mild criticism and Farage and his crew inciting race riots. Not really keen on people deciding that it's "not the time" when the horse has already bolted.

2024: Keir Starmer, "Delivering change won't be easy. It will require a different way of working.. Openness..Transparency" 2026: Keir Starmer, "Many people, not just in politics, use disappearing messages" Nothing says “openness and transparency” quite like metaphorically burning the paper trail 🤷‍♂️

A real mystery why we never did get Leveson 2

This is the sort of stuff isis was doing and everyone got mad

Michelle Mone and Andrew show that if you are rich crime doesn't exist.

And for those of us with GRCs, we’re between a rock and a hard place: we’re no longer our gender in the EA, but still our gender in the GRA. If I were to marry, I’d be legally female at the ceremony, but when I needed the toilet at the reception, I’d be legally expected to use the men’s.

The "he doesn't mean it, he'll change in power" is the exact bullshit people said about Starmer and here we are. Grow the fuck up.

1. London Underground station flooding has reportedly been reduced by around 90% thanks to a group of engineers: beavers. After conservationists reintroduced a family of beavers into a nearby city park, the animals built dams and restored wetlands that now absorb and slow floodwater naturally.

Labour needed 1 vote for control, but rather than work with the 1 Green councillor they ceded half their power to the Tories.

Those who build walls are their own prisoners. I'm going to go fulfil my proper function in the social organism. I'm going to go unbuild walls.

Remember to call it Labour’s bathroom ban as they love to claim ownership of progressive legislation they’ve brought in so they need to claim ownership of segregation as well

Okay, Jeff. It’s guillotines, then.

Weight checks before bungee jumping would put the industry at serious risk. Many will refuse to supply personal weight for these intrusive checks - they’ll instead turn to the unregulated illegal bungee jumping market.

Historic times as we witness the expansion of Israel bit.ly/4dsnqZG and this map does not include the developing occupation of the West Bank.

He's not even in power and he's already melting infront off our eyes, If you think this is the man to save you from reform your too far gone

I'm sorry, what? In writing my first monograph, I spent six weeks trying to track down a citation in TWO languages I didn't know. And good thing too, because the citation was wrong. That's scholarship. That's research. You know, the thing we're trained to do?!?

🚨BREAKING | Andy Burnham confirms he will NOT scrap first-past-the-post before #GE2029 Burnham said electoral reform must be "in a manifesto", and revealed he does NOT back proportional representation, instead praising the non-proportional Supplementary Vote (SV). Via @itvnews

if you want leftist votes, then you have to give concessions to leftist voters. it's really that simple.

Stand aside for Magic Northern Uncle, who will be a great PM but can't guarantee winning support in Ashton-in-Makerfield even though he's chosen there specifically to return for reasons we can't tell you. Trust us bro.

Labour wouldn't, for a second, consider stepping aside for The Greens under any circumstances. Start from there.

OK so he's apparently the only labour guy who can take on reform in a GE but simultaneously needs the Greens to stand down so he can maybe win against reform to become MP in the first place? Is that an actual argument cos jfc.
