Do you hear that….yes that’s thousands more running to the Greens and/or ripping up their Labour membership. Now do you hear the silence…that’s no Reform voters going the other way. Incomprehensible, reprehensible and political cowardice.

🇬🇧🙄🇬🇧🙄🇬🇧🙄🇬🇧🙄🇬🇧 THIS!

Summed up completely. This country is for all of us but this Labour government doesn’t want to listen to us.

www.theguardian.com/society/2025... This is tragic but the tragedy is being repeated thousands of times. Our prison’s are full of people who should be in psychiatric hospitals but Thatcher shut them all down. Care in the community.

I know this Labour government is doing some genuinely good things but I feel so despondent when I hear Labour politicians talk like this. This is the politics of cowardice and I cannot abide political cowards.

Thank you Speaker Box Street Party for the joy of finding your flashmob tonight and joining in - the more they hate us, the more we need to take to the streets to show the joy that can be found here. Sorry to disappoint Rupert Lowe- London isn’t broken, it’s bouncing!

Whatever Trump is desperately covering up about Epstein, it’s clearly so bad that he thinks it could destroy him

Breaking news. Train worker who saved passengers from stabbings has left hospital. Samir Zitouni, the whole country has been willing you through. What fantastic news, a true hero. www.bbc.com/news/article...

This is an element of the migration/asylum plans I suspect quite a few Labour MPs will find hardest to sign up to: if you come to the UK as a refugee you can never make your life here, but only ever exist in a state of limbo.

British patriots begging an American president to bankrupt one of Britain’s last remaining truly national institutions.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Oh bore off.

I ENTIRELY understand why a party way to the left of Labour needs to exist. I have NO IDEA why it needs to be Your Party, other than ego. The Greens are RIGHT THERE. Corbyn will be 78 at the next election. And it's a shambles. Give up, lads. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Trump is suing us, the British people. Tell that to the ‘patriots’ who are siding with a foreign sex offender.

I believe in the right to ask fair and legitimate questions. Unless those questions are “did you pay for that house in Clacton?”, “how could your girlfriend afford to buy it?”, “is it just a tax scam?” or “are you a lying sack of shit?”

How could I leave out the POTUS??!! Trump - Russia

Epstein - Russia Farage - Russia Johnson - Russia Cummings - Russia Bannon - Russia What a tangled web we weave.

Farage, Boris Johnson & Rees-Mogg apparently plotting assaults on UK democracy with Bannon, who was reporting back to Epstein. Nothing to see here, newspaper folk… www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Show of hands please. How many women could lay their hands on £900,000 cash to buy their fella a house in his constituency ? Asking for a country still wanting an answer. #Farage #Frintongate

Trump says he will take legal action against BBC over Panorama edit. He can’t, a year has passed. That is the law. EPSTEIN FILE DIVERSION.

A week of chaos, cowardice and negligence: Labour has managed to pack so many failures into a single five day period that it's becoming difficult to remember all the details iandunt.substack.com/p/a-week-of-...

Read 'em and weep. (www.nber.org/system/files...)

An extra £10 bn, maybe? Can they solve things like this without an income tax rise? I really hope so. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A reminder that it was *checks notes* two days ago that they were telling us we couldn't possibly change Prime Minister because it would spook the bond markets

James O’Brien confirms that the information on u turn on income tax rises has come from the Treasury, (leaked to the FT).

Meanwhile Wes Streeting maybe the next leader when I believed that would never happen.

Shameful news bulletin from @lbc.co.uk “The BBC has apologised to the POTUS when editing (documentary) made it look like he incited violence on the night of the capital riots” HE DID! Through the looking glass.

The remarkable story we discussed this morning. (No paywall but do consider subscribing.) www.thenewworld.co.uk/james-ball-e...

Basically the gilts have plummeted when news of tax u turn was first leaked to the FT. Reeves may have to u turn on the u turn OR she’s doing this to show what happens if she doesn’t raise taxes OR she’s getting the bad news out of the way, either way it was leaked by No 10. And absolute chaos.

For the briefest of moments, it looked like there was going to a moment of honesty. But apparently that involved too much courage. So now it's death by cowardice.

God help us, it looks like utter chaos in there.

🔉What dangers does X pose to our democracy? And should the government stop using it? Good to hear yesterday from @sundersays.bsky.social and @petergeoghegan.bsky.social on the immense risk of X as it ignores legal obligations and its owner tries to influence UK politics. @commonswec.parliament.uk

You absolute fucking clowns.

even if they U-turn the U-turn in response to a poor Gilt mkt reaction (which am also expecting), I think both Reeves and Starmer are done now. zero credibility as policy makers or strategic thinkers etc.

39 minutes until the bond markets make reeves reconsider I reckon.

I am excited to see the gilt market reaction to this news. Think it could be quite bad. A big chunk of the recent gilt rally was predicated on Labour showing they could hike the big taxes if needed and….well I guess that idea is dead.

You can argue that Labour shouldn’t break their manifesto promise not to raise taxes, though some would argue that when the facts change…? But they know that raising income tax (and other taxes)is the right thing to do. Not raising them just to keep their jobs is immoral.

I didn’t know there was such a thing as Starmer cultists. 🤷‍♀️

So Starmer and Reeves are not raising income taxes because they are afraid of their losing their jobs? So we’re going to have to have more austerity? I mean that’s how I see it? Anyone got another explanation? Might as well go then, both of you.

Farage earns more than any other MP for NOT being an MP. He says it’s “obviously sad” that part of his constituency is the most deprived area in England. But everything he’s ever done, said and wanted has made sure of it. This is the whole country if he gets into power. (Private Eye)

Anyone who buys a TeSSla is supporting Nazism. End of.

apple.news/Aebl6F7-fToK... Cowardly, stupid and ultimately when life/services, cost of living doesn’t get better for people, they’ll lose anyway.

Hey guys. Is this Xenophobic?

“The political strategy, at its core - get into power and instead of looking after your base, devote the first year to p***ing off your base, in favour of voters who will probably never come to you - is so poor and predictably disastrous that I don’t understand how McSweeney is still in Downing St.”
