The FTSE 100 is at 11000 pounds THATS what we should be talking about

Post a pic you took, no context to bring some zen to the feed

Starmer is at this point daring someone to stand against him before May, he's had enough, or he's lost his mind

"battered Starmer and chips please"

This is pretty bold stuff from somebody who got 552 more votes than Sir Oink A-Lot.

My favourite part is her getting the Tory candidate’s police rank wrong

To all Labour MPs on here. Please please please get Government Comms off 'X'. You could do that this afternoon. That would cheer lots of Labour members up. The owner of 'X' literally wants Rupert Lowe as PM and Tommy ten names as his Home Secretary. Just get off his platform.

As the analysis starts of the Gorton and Denton result, I wanted to flag some aspects that my experience yesterday suggests are being over or under-played (Caveats - I went to Longsight, Gorton and Denton town centres and spoke to as many people as I could, but it was mostly during the working day)

This. Labour faces a massive choice in the leadership election. Do they go pro Europe? Hopefully they will.

Note to self:- You can't be sarcastic on social media, as loads of over earnest nutters take you seriously. Obviously everyone knows this fact, but I occasionally forget.

He doesn't care in the same way Farage doesn't. Actually, Farage is different in that he does actually believe a lot of his stuff. Polanski is a tweet generating machine who believes in very little at all. Complete charlatan.

Still stuck in 1983.... good old Jezzer, as useless as ever.

WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM CHIEF BRENDE STEPS DOWN OVER EPSTEIN TIES

Fabulous film

Great to see the Conservatives wanting to reform student loans. Would like to see an account for Osborne replacing maintenance grants with loans in 2015. This has left poorer students with bigger debts vs richer ones for a whole decade, compounding inequality between rich and poor. It’s scandalous.

More initial signs of recovery! “UK government debt sales are expected to drop for the first time in four years, in a sign that chancellor Rachel Reeves’ effort to keep a lid on borrowing is easing pressure on the gilt market”

What's that saying... it's complicated? A child with ADHD head butted my Grandson last week in school. He gets over excited sometimes was the school's response. Totally unacceptable.

What he said. The nasty politics of division on display by both the far left and far right in Gorton and Denton is absolutely why neither the Greens or Reform should have any power. Two cheeks of the same backside.

The Tories have got exactly what they wanted from the media today. Every news bulletin is leading with the words “Labour” and “pedo protection party” on the day of a by-election.

If they want to go down this route, bring on the Republic

Forget PMQs in the House of Commons. This, the first creator press conference in Downing Street, is much better. In this half-hour session, Starmer answered much more prevalent questions for 2/3 of the time, in detail, and very well. This is what change looks and sounds like.

Lisa Nandy says that the government is now considering quitting X. "The first job of government is to deal with the really serious issues around regulation" ... "But I do think symbols matter - the question you ask is very much up for debate. Its a debate we are having"

The fact the BBC/Sky are not making Farage's moral bankruptcy as evident in #PMQs main news not only shows a lack of decency in our media but also should be condemned as moral outrage. This man is somehow immune to accountability and it makes me sick. Instead now Sky compares Starmer to Johnson 😂😂

Friday's headlines Greens win "Zach's Zeppelin means curtains for Starmer, Nigel now certain to be PM" Reform win "Matt's Mortar finishes off Starmer, Nigel marches on No 10" Labour win "Lucky Labour victory spells the end for Starmer, Reform guaranteed to form next Government (possibly next week)

Powerful moment in the Commons as Starmer calls on Farage to apologise for the Reform councillor who shared a post calling for Labour MP Natalie Fleet to be shot, pointing out that when Farage faced death threats Starmer condemned them. Farage totally ignores that & asks about the Chago Islands.

Farage and his Tory turncoats can't be trusted. Labour's Angeliki Stogia is the only person who can stop Reform in Gorton & Denton on Thursday.

I think some of this is a consequence of her being Too Online, in that she has always been too partisan to be properly effective IMV, but: today is wild. She has *friends* who she is calling “paedo defenders”!!

🚨BREAKING PMQs🚨 Starmer: "A death threat was shared by Reform's deputy council leader in Lancashire against the brilliant Member for Bolsover" "If he has any decency he will stand up, apologise, condemn the comments, and sack the individual in his party"

It’s lovely to see all these buildings lit up in yellow and blue. I’d rather Ukraine were given what they need to win the war personally.

The UK parliament now has an MP who is openly racist and far right. This is, for the current era, new ground, and it will be interesting to see how - if at all – other MPs respond.

Very concerning incident at Manchester Central Mosque. Thanks to the vigilance of volunteers and the action of police a more serious incident was avoided. Those responsible must face full force of the law. We must root out Islamophobia and Muslim hate and all those who perpetrate it.

Higher and higher she goes, where she stops nobody knows. Judging by people in my circle, something seems to be shifting. Just this week one has bought a lodge in the lakes and one has bought a camper van (lucky them) , feels like people have started spending money again instead of sitting on it.

Utterly disgusting from Green Party .. expectations for this dire lot receding by the minute.. how any decent Green leaning person would vote for this sour racist populism is as beyond me a a vote for Farage is ..

Reform people seem to be very unlucky with the social media posts that they 'accidentally' like and retweet? They're quite a clumsy lot aren't they. Have they all got thick fingers or is there another explanation I wonder?

All the other parties (and I mean your shower Badenoch) need to start calling these people (and those who vote for them) what they are.

Anyone who votes Reform in Gorton and Denton tomorrow, this is who you are. Own it.

We can build it better but only if we recognise who is trying to tear us down first - link for tickets to Sunday 8th March here: sohotheatre.com/events/walth...

Brilliant to join Angeliki on the doorsteps in Gorton and Denton today. She’s a fantastic Labour candidate, working hard to unify the community and the only candidate who can beat Reform. On Thursday vote Labour. 🌹

Reform UK is refusing to suspend a councillor who reshared a post calling for a female Labour MP to be shot. Given the history of violence against MPs in the UK, calling this an “honest mistake” is indefensible. There can be no excuses. national.thelead.uk/p/exclusive-...

😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠 If you live in Lancashire … please report this Reform councillor to the Lancashire police/ or to tge council monitoring officer ( deets below. Can’t find her email) Two words: Jo Cox Thank you

Meanwhile Geoffrey Cox is just about keeping his head above water on a mere £2,200 an hour.

Worth noting his objection to no fault divorce. I worked a bit on the campaign for that, and one of the striking things with the scholarship was the evidence that demonstrated allowing it led to a drop in suicides of married women.

it still sends a shiver down my spine to think of Biden calling Zelensky to offer to send special forces to extract him from Kyiv, and getting in response: “I need ammunition, not a ride”. Slava Ukraini.

Good piece by Labour candidate Angeliki Stogia. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

After watching Reforms campaign in Gorton and Denton I’m intrigued by the “scrapping renters’ rights” policy. Politics is about whose side you’re on and in Mcr, Reform are telling Labour voters often in awful/£££ rental conditions that they’re on their side. While nationally signalling the opposite

Always remember, every single piece of legislation that has helped workers and the working class has only ever been delivered (since 1923) by a Labour Government

One of the first priorities of this Labour government was to make people safer and more secure at work. Today Reform are revealing their true colours, they'll roll back our rights, reinstate fire and rehire and give bad bosses the freedom to behave as they want.
