i'm saying andy burnham.

Exactly. Also true of the Conservatives. And, under FPP, Reform can get a majority on 28%, or could win under 100 seats on 26% - fragmentation plus volatility = chaos under first past the post

Labour leadership latest

The Tories haven't tabled a debate on education for the King's Speech. I wonder why? Maybe they don't want to talk about all the things Labour are doing to give children growing up in our country the best start in life – so here's your reminder. 👇

"The desire not to have an argument means we rarely make an argument" Perfectly sums up of all that's gone wrong with starmer

Starmer's speech really was the one

Starmer's wild speech changes the tides and now puts him on +45. Proving the doubter's wrong. What a turnaround. What a leader

6 seconds of starmer is enough to convince me he has to go. he looks like he knows it. we all know it. just get rid of him and move on

I'm fascinated by water's movement. Today, with a northeast wind and a high tide, the ripples make themselves visible. They almost look like wrinkles in our skin. #SussexCoast

I believe she believes it. But she's not in touch with reality.

Completely unacceptable from the Board of Deputies. This nakedly partisan hypocrisy does not represent me or many other British Jews. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

If Labour react to this pattern by saying "we need to win back votes from Reform" they risk making a major misdiagnosis, one which could make their current troubles even worse.

‘Put your baby on its back to sleep’ is public health genius: free, anyone can do it, cut cot death rates by 80%. Amazing. Just listened to great BBC woman’s hour (h/t to public service broadcasting too) on how it’s being undermined by Instagram-famous idiots www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Labour’s vote halved since the General Election. Time for the government to stop punching its core vote in the face.

Running my dishwasher at full intensity with tears streaming down my cheeks to satisfy the demands of my energy company.

Please read this, understand what the govt is doing & take action. Labour's immigration proposals swap integration for segregation, introduce a Dubai-style Kafala system of coercive employer control & drive low-income families into poverty. They're an abomination. open.substack.com/pub/wewanted...

It does feel like Starmer and Mahmoud have seen Labour rejected by its own *actual* core vote (instead of its imagined one) in its heartland and decided that the answer is just to reject those core voters right back. Suicidal politics.

Labour supporters getting salty should reflect that Labour is not an end in itself but, for most of them, a means to progressive ends.

If Matt Goodwin hurries he could get the 5.37 from Piccadilly getting him home by around 9.30. 👋👋👋👋👋 He can take his hate with him.

Well done Hannah Spencer. Great speech. I also get to tell my 6 year old son in 2 hours that the real life bad guy lost. Proud of everyone here in gorton and Denton. It wasn't close in the end. We did it. ❤️❤️❤️

Was tempted to vote labour and met this guy so went green
