There may be some very red faces in the media tomorrow when all the predictions come to nought, there'll be no apology though just a lot of claptrap about her back tracking because of concerns raised by them.

Brexit: “The most dishonest campaign in our history said it would save us £350m a week, but Brexit actually cost us £250m a day in 2025. That is why we have the highest taxes ever, that is why we have sky-high bills, that is why we have a cost of living crisis” @eddavey.libdems.org.uk

Hello, have you got a copy of "How to racially abuse people so they feel all warm & cuddly afterwards" by Nigel Farage ?

Only 16% of Trump voters support Ukraine making territorial concessions to Russia and 72% are in favor of selling Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine, according to a new poll by The Vandenberg Coalition. 72% of Trump voters also believe the US should help Ukraine and hold Russia accountable.

Robbie Gibb needs to go now.

Labour needs to learn the lessons from putting VAT on private school fees. A clear policy, a well argued case and faced down critics. That's the way forward not surrendering at the first smell of cordite. Labour has a stonking majority. Use it.

Currently Reform are a minority of 5 out of 650 with political influence. How does that justify broad significant changes to programming of BBC output based on how the public may vote in 3½ years time? Shah and Gibb have power over the BBC that is wholly out of proportion and heavily biased.

The administration seems to forget that in 1994, the U.S. and NATO made a commitment to protect Ukraine from Russia on the condition that Ukraine give up all its nukes, which they did. And now Ukraine is being thrown under the bus and labeled ungrateful when THEY met their end of the bargain.

All the supposedly progressive people saying 'Nigel Farage's racism doesn't matter. His fans love it'. It matters whether the leader of the party leading all the opinion polls is an outright racist. It matters if he called black people 'wogs' and said 'gas them' to Jews. Not everything is a game

Morning xx

It's not a coincidence that the four most damaging politicians of the last two decades (Cameron, Osborne, Johnson and Farage) are all the products of English public schools.

My attendance record in the European Parliament was the 4th worst out of 751 MEPs, yet I managed to turn up to vote AGAINST plans to tackle Russian misinformation. Thankfully this is of no interest to the media.

It’s not a make or break Budget. It’s a Budget. Same as we have every year. Sometimes they’re good. Sometimes they’re not. What’s different: our despicable media

The very first step for a government on this should be removing official accounts from these toxic social media sites. Otherwise you're basically encouraging people to use them.

People have a right to feel frustrated. But Nigel Farage is turning it into anger and division. He's directing it away from the wealthy and toward the vulnerable. Who benefits? Him and his donors.

This will change the profile of all the cars in the Disability parking at my local Waitrose. Lol.

Actually, why do already very rich people want to get even richer? When you already have more clothes, jewellery, houses, cars, yachts than you can actually use, why still crave more? Were these people not hugged enough as children? Weaned too soon? What hole in their lives are they trying to fill?

Millions bust their arses daily just to survive, while Tories whinge about “welfare culture” from taxpayer-funded luxury. They crashed the economy, made work not pay, and now blame the poor. Cutting support for kids isn’t “responsible” - if anything needs a cap, it’s Tory hypocrisy. #ukpolitics

My questions for Farage 1. How did your gf buy you a house? 2. How much has Russia paid you? 3. Is Putin still your fav Leader? 4. Are you really selling black shirts? 5. Are 20 people at your old school right about your racism and antisemitism? 6. Ever been to Clacton?

The Mail so pro the UK it pays taxes abroad, its owners reside abroad and its journalists never knowingly praise the UK.

It really is so absurd to claim "I get small business because I worked in a MacDonalds once and what business needs is another massive costly upheaval in four years, just as they have absorbed the last change." Even before you add the fact that she is unlikely to be Tory leader by next summer.

Every aspect of the budget has been condemned and opposed without anyone knowing the content. Cleverly it gives the media the ability to be totally negative no matter what is announced. Adversarial politics destroys confidence and undermines our politics and economy. We need a new way forward.

Follow the money…..

As America continues its backward spiral, Finland is showing us what our tomorrows are missing out on. The future will get here without America it seems

The time has come for Europe to keep the US at arms length and build their defense industry up to be a juggernaut of deterrence and strength. We have failed the free world and it’s time for us Americans to admit it and consider alternatives for keeping the world free. Otherwise, all will be lost.

A comprehensive timeline of Nathan Gill & Nigel Farage’s pro-Kremlin influencing activities & 2 other MEPs, David Cobourn & Jonathan Arnott. Please read & share.

I don't believe Johnson took 4 days off. He took his whole premiership off. Everyday the lazy prat just flounced around with his crappy hair to boost his ego and stuff his face.

Exactly ⬇️ This 💯......

Today in 1644 John Milton publishes Areopagitica, a pamphlet decrying censorship and this before American Fox News or GBNews existed. 😂

Johnson is a sociopath. Quite incapable of the empathy required to understand his own responsibility/culpability.

Watching the football this weekend I hadn’t realised it had become a hybrid of rugby and soccer where holding, grabbing shirts and wrapping your arms around someone was allowed.

Next time you hear a Reform spokesperson pretending to understand real people's lives, remember this.

I’d have thought nothing cuts more against our precious British values than selling out your country for Russian bribes… And yet Reform, the right‑wing press, and all those self‑styled guardians of these values have nothing to say …funny that.

Am reminded of what one Ukrainian colleague wrote me after the Feb 28 white house debacle: ‘We used to so admire the Americans. They were our great role model. Now look what wimps they really are. So eager to surrender to Russia, but nobody’s even shooting at them. What have we to learn from them?’

Watched a clip of Polanski on bbc news this morning. Saying wages haven’t gone up,yes they have you liar, he’s surprised labour have been so slow to lift the child benefit cap,they’ve been in over a year!!! He hasn’t a clue how anything works. And lastly my favourite while smiling ‘Tax the rich’ 🙈

Twilight Zone level of 🐂 💩.......

Mel Stride made outrageous claims on Sky this morning. Many were factually incorrect yet none were challenged. Not sure if he was representing the Conservatives or Reform.

Trump again shows how weak he is. Very evident now that he is Putin’s puppet Trump is now running scared showing what a coward he is news.sky.com/story/ukrain...

A billion journeys will benefit from the freeze - saving passengers a total of £600m, Labour says inews.co.uk/news/rail-fa...

The new evidence is grim: Brexit has made Britain is smaller, poorer and less productive. No wonder Reeves found a black hole in the budget. It’s been carved out by a decade of lost growth of 6-8% - a hit of £180-£240bn - that’s far worse than was predicted.

The Polish prime minister reacts

Seems that Putin has instructed Farage to lay low for a while.

Hot off the press 11 announcements that will positively touch the lives of ordinary people throughout the UK. All made in the last 5 days. Labour remain focused on driving down the cost of living and securing investment and jobs across the UK. 👏👏👏

Better with Labour
