💥NEW: Our State of HOPE polling, a mega survey of 45,000 people, shows what people in the UK are really thinking 👇 hopenothate.org.uk/state-of-hope/

🚨 The Government wants to crash the economy. On the very same day the Prime Minister finally distanced himself from Reform UK’s policies, his own Home Secretary announced proposals that would create a two-tier society.

100% agree. @barnardos.org.uk & @praxisprojects.bsky.social told #Lab25 that proposals to double settlement requirements to 10 years would push more children into poverty for longer. “Making the lives of migrant children harder will not improve the lives of non migrant children” - Comfort Etim

Health workers across the UK are fighting back. We’re working to protect Indefinite Leave to Remain and advocate for shorter, more affordable routes to settlement. Join us now. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Scrapping Indefinite Leave to Remain or making it harder to get - like the Government has just announced - will devastate our NHS. It punishes people who’ve already been part of our communities for years. Indefinite Leave to Remain is the backbone of belonging. youtube.com/shorts/aHTh0...

Cell search. What’s George got hold of? #TheArchers

Anja got a mention. #TheArchers And Poppy has a birthday!

Is there anyone who still expects Donald Trump to hold free and fair elections?

Better late than never I guess. If this happens it will be a huge step forward. The two child cap has been shown, repeatedly, to be a major driver of child poverty. There's never been an excuse for keeping it in place. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

I'll believe it when I see it

Labour dragged into a humane policy for families at last. Over a million children should not have suffered for an extra year, but it shows opposition pressure and public campaigning can work. We must use our votes and voices to win for Disabled people now! www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

It's not immigration, it's billionaires. Until the problem is tackled the UK CANNOT improve. That is a fact and it is not going to change.

I wonder how many are thinking, "Is my pension safe with these morons running the government?" I know that is my thought every day because I am a widow of an Army veteran who receives half my husband's pension.

Trump was expecting them to applaud his bullshit. The generals should have rushed the stage and arrested Trump as an enemy of the Constitution.

I asked a friend in Portugal for advice, as they lived under and dictator and overcame him. He told me “yes, we elected a dictator for Portugal. You elected a dictator for the world.”

People in Europe really have to reconsider our relationship with the US, cause 80 years after WWII there is no more reason to have US troops in our countries when their leaders talk like occupants. We can make new deals about how we work together, but these deals have to be in favour of both sides!

The Fact that Benjamin Netanyahu was at the White House today.....no words can express how Disgusting this is

Donald Trump's 'deal' has annexed Gaza to the USA while still leaving the IDF in control. It is the worst of all worlds for the Gazans. The USA will build their luxury resort for them, and the IDF will lock them in ghettos and continue to starve them all to death.

I think that was Keir Starmer’s best speech as Labour leader, in part because he clearly believed most of it and the argument actually cohered and had some policy substance to it.

Keir Starmer: “Think about it- when was the last time Nigel Farage said something positive about Britain’s future? He can’t. He doesn’t like Britain. he wants to turn our proud country into a competition of victims. “

Starmer's speech won't convince the haters, but it was the best I've seen him give. Repositioned a lot of stuff in a good clear way, had a story to tell and a sense of mission. While I have plenty of nits to pick, it managed to address me not as a commentator, but as a person, which is a rare feat.

Already a thing www.england.nhs.uk/virtual-wards/

hardly anyone will watch Starmer's appearance at Labour conference today but it was probably the best speech he's ever given he clearly signposted what he stands for - a diverse, tolerant, decent Britain - and how be believes progressives are in an existential fight with the populist right

UK companies cause harm in their global supply chains. For them it’s “just business”. But we call it injustice. We joined Action Aid UK and Fairtrade UK at Labour party conference calling for action. Sign👇 https://action.friendsoftheearth.uk/petition/make-corporate-harm-not-just-business

Thats mad !!

To Donald Trump: Stop using military troops and ICE to invade and disrupt American cities. Stop calling your political opponents “enemies” of the US. Stop attacking the 1st Amendment. Our troops and our nation deserve better than you acting as a petty tyrant.

Remember if you taxed the money from all the rich people away they could get a better job and earn it all back. It works for you, why not for them?

Where?

A Doctor yesterday, a Nurse today. Israel is shooting Doctors and Nurses while they work in hospitals. And our Media is completely ignoring it.

Netanyahu doesn’t want peace, ever.

I have three children on the spectrum. I never took Tylenol during my pregnancies because it always makes my stomach upset. I’m waiting to see if they try to find another reason to blame me for my children’s autism. 🙄

Greta Thunberg is the leader we should have. If you believe in her and the Flotilla. Please reply with Protect the Global Sumud Flotilla. They are the only ones with the coverage to stand up to Israel.

Congrats on making Cadet Bone Spurs your Commander in Chief, ‘Murica. That’s really working out for you all, I see.

I'm glad Keir Starmer is finally stepping up the fight against Nigel Farage, and I hope this will mark the end of his government parroting Farage and copying his divisive politics.

Wait, is either of these normal in the US because both sound utterly batshit to my Scandi ass with our Last Bank Day of the Month pay cycles?

In 🇨🇦Canada, just think what support could be given to our postal system if everyone mailed at least one letter or card to someone else in Canada every month. Children would be excited to receive a mailed card for their birthday instead of a text message or facebook post. Start sending letters again!

Do they declare their earnings to HMRC?

There was, at The Bell hotel protest an "auditor" who went to film because of "the women and kids" who turned out that he had a SHPO and on the SOR for child abuse. He was caught by a hunting team. Not every auditor is who others think they are for reasons they say.

Online safety???? Report them to the Police. Don’t waste time reporting to YouTube

The Government should crack down on social media.

I hope HMRC are on their case, then.

This started in America where random people who called themselves journalist auditors went around council buildings filming, I’m sure that’s where they got the idea from. I’m so sick of being Americanised and watching so many things go down the toilet.

Where are immigrants from? Empire, colonies. Stop complaining. Your own fault.

You’re probably the only person apart from Ed Davey himself who has even heard of these people. And I bet even Ed would struggle to identify them in a lineup.

A novelty for the libdems to have enough MPs to have space for rising stars!

the russians sure have a funny way of winning

Both Orbán and Putin selling fairytales to their populations. russia is done... one big squeeze and the economy is done. Orbán's corruption and lies are clear to see. He led Hungary to be one of the poorest in Europe, all the time sucking at the teet of EU money and building his Zebra palace!

two faced Orban talking 💩and spreading Kremlin approved lines again

So he's OK with Russian drones over Hungary? Are they the equivalent of the 1956 tanks on the streets?
