"I don't know whether Nigel Farage has been given £5m by fossil fuel companies. We'll never know who else gave him £5m for undisclosed reasons - because he won't tell us." O'Brien on LBC connecting the heatwave to the broader story of vested interests in British politics.

You’ve got a leader who leads your party to one bye election defeat after another and has a record for persistent losing. More than half the population hate his guts and he’s the subject of investigations into his dodgy financial dealings. What do you do ?

Your Prime Day reminder that half of Amazon warehouse workers struggle with food & housing costs. A third have had to rely on government assistance like SNAP — which was gutted last year. If Bezos can spend $500M on a yacht, Amazon can afford to treat its workers with dignity.

Labour Minister Chris Ward says Andy Burnham can’t do much because there’s ’no money’. This nonsense is why Labour fails. The 50 richest families own as much wealth as 50% of population. Don’t let Labour tell you it’s not possible to transfer this obscene wealth into the hands of the many.

Some Democrats think the party has gone too far left and needs to readjust towards the “center.” Rubbish. Where’s the center between democracy and oligarchy, and why would Democrats want to be there?

Ten years ago today, encouraged and lied to by self-interested charlatans, we shot ourselves in the foot. We're still limping... With the US, at least for now, no friend of ours, or of democracy, we need our European allies more than ever. It's time to rejoin!

'If you have any information about the whereabouts of Nigel, whose mummy is very worried about him, the number is 0345 6060 973.' After Andy Burnham's Makerfield win, James O'Brien wonders why the Reform UK leader is not doing any live interviews.

Reform have now lost six by-elections in a row in England, Scotland and Wales. Their national poll rating is 26% – below Labour in 1983 – and Farage’s approval rating is -37. They’re very far from the voice of the people and need to stop being treated as such.

Whatever the result, we badly need a party that is willing to redistribute wealth and power. A party that will nationalise our public services, tax the super rich and call a genocide exactly what it is. And that's the Green Party.
