The #FIFAWorldCup has been a nice break from all the efforts to prop up the Conservative Party... to the point where I even tuned in to @talkSPORT radio... only to realise there’s more politics in sport than on #r4today... which, tbh, isn’t difficult...

Labour hasn’t learned a single thing from the Conservative Party constantly changing leaders - not one thing. #r4today

Restore is cutting into Reform votes and Wes Streeting wants a Labour leadership contest... This is a dangerous way to try and increase the standing of the Conservative Party... #r4today

Wes Streeting and Burnham are being used & praised by hacks whose only goal is to promote and protect the Conservative Party... if one of these lightweights becomes PM then they will be shot down in flames. #r4today

Streeting is a prime example of why promoting someone beyond their abilities can backfire - it only inflates their sense of self-importance. #r4today

Google is integrating AI into Android phones and Google Workspace apps at a rate that is astonishing... even Android Auto integration - the more we ask - the more they know what we 'want' - security around this is a concern though... #r4today

I don't hear anyone saying that AI will bring a net gain in jobs... #r4today

Streeting had a bit to do with Mandelson didn't he? Ends x #r4today

Turley had a lot of good things to say but she talks so fast that her message is lost... #r4today

Surely we should be adding such issues into our equality laws & not 'scrapping' them? #r4today

Tell me, given the reported extent of "cuckooing," - are vulnerable people who are being exploited by it being effectively monitored & safeguarded by social services & similar groups? #r4today

Here's the analysis bit in which Jeremy Bowen adds some proper journalism & insight on #r4today only to be forgotten by the BBC, in its entirety, 5 seconds later...

Liz Kendall knows as much about AI as Trump knows about making "great deals"... #r4today

Here's the analysis bit in which Jeremy Bowen adds some proper journalism & insight on #r4today only to be forgotten by the BBC, in its entirety, 5 seconds later...

Surely we should be adding such issues into our equality laws & not 'scrapping' them? #r4today

Badenoch using the same the 'white working class' are 'disadvantaged' fact that Trevor Philips highlighted in his "Things We Won't Say About Race That Are True" program. Is this is a solid basis to scrap the legal equality duty for public services? #r4today

Tell me, given the reported extent of "cuckooing," - are vulnerable people who are being exploited by it being effectively monitored & safeguarded by social services & similar groups? #r4today

A.I. will generate more wealth for the already wealthy. #r4today

Trump has just admitted that he’s lost whatever “control” over BN he thought he had, and that their respective states’ goals don’t align at all. Meanwhile, the BBC simply reports his words verbatim without insight or evidence. #r4today

How did we get into this horrific position in which a vulnerable person's home is taken over by criminals - it's almost as if we have no control over drug importation and that social care checks on those affected have been non existent... #r4today

Once again, Badenoch attempts to reinvent the party she has supported through 14 years of abject failure... #r4today

I listen to the "markets/economics section" of #r4today and often feel like I’ve missed out on something by having to work myself into the ground just to make an "honest" living...

Did I accidentally tune in to GBNews? #bbclaurak

Streeting, Burnham and Rayner are perfect examples of people who have been promoted beyond their abilities and now, wrongly, believe they can do better... #bbclaurak

Streeting, Burnham, Rayner - meet the continuity establishment easy prey... #r4today

It’s clear that Darren Jones has been sent out to push the idea that a “managed transition” beats a mismanaged one… cue the chaos... #r4today

You seriously have to wonder about the cognitive abilities of Labour MPs talking openly with Nick Robinson... "Tempting though it is to get into the problems of the Conservative Party- I don't think we want to do that right now..." #r4today

It's apparent that Nick Robinson isn't getting the answers HE wants to the questions HE is framing... #r4today

The timing of these stories has always fascinated me – it’s like someone is intentionally trying to suppress democracy, keeping us stuck in a state of political & democratic stagnation forever... #r4today

No matter who interviews @ZackPolanski tomorrow on #r4today I'll bet you that it won't be as "softball" as Nick Robinson's "facilitated dialogue" with Badenoch....

Time for a cosy Tory chat on #r4today

How do you become PM of Israel btw and how long does it take for a corruption trial to reach an honest conclusion...? Asking for a friend... #r4today

I've got something to say about antisemitism in the UK but I don't think it will be discussed rationally... #r4today

A sign of things to come... "they'll listen to us now" said Sunderland voters after the Brexit vote (according to Robinson) - except they didn't and they'll do the same again, expecting a different result, that does not exist... #r4today

#r4today goes to Sunderland just before the "Red Wall" could turn Reform UK light blue... some would say they're a bit late to this particular party - having platformed those that magnify division while navel-gazing at Westminster politics...

Some might say that today, Starmer is “going back to his roots”... #r4today

When a lot of failed politicians and officials start angling for jobs in what they think is the next big thing that is a datapoint for how that thing is going to trigger the next economic crash

If anyone believes that establishment media and influencers genuinely want Starmer to step down right now, they’re in for a rude awakening... #r4today

Announcing that something is "too dangerous for the world" is a great way to promote a product... and not bursting your self-created, tech. restricted bubble... #r4today

The truth is: The Conservative Party need Starmer to stay (easy target to increase their low support base) The Labour Party need Starmer to stay (no current unifying candidate) The UK Greens need Starmer to stay... etc... etc... etc... #r4today

If anyone believes that establishment media and influencers genuinely want Starmer to step down right now, they’re in for a rude awakening... #r4today

When does the evidence against “what they say” become so overwhelming that repeating “what they say” turns into complicity? idk... #r4today

A drift back to war now looks likely than a peace deal. And if things really get going over the next 2 weeks it is difficult to see how you get de-escalation after that

There’s no point in watching the Sunday Politics shows when it’s obvious they just recycle questions already answered on social media. They never push an issue any further, and heaven forbid they introduce anything genuinely new to the discussion. #trevorphillips #BBCLauraK

Peter Magyar displaying a ruthlessness that Biden and Starmer seem devoid of

James Murray keeps saying he's "frustrated and angry" that Trump seemed to lack an exit strategy and insists it's "not our war" - but the truth is, we still don't know exactly what role we've played or how we've been involved. #r4today

#r4today - where the discussions between users are more interesting & informative than those instigated by Robinson and Webb...

Rachel Reeves isn’t pleased that Trump entered this war “without an exit plan” – so maybe she could explain exactly what our UK military bases have been used for, beyond the vague “defence” explanation? #r4today

The King can say what he thinks in private - just as our government can say one thing to you and another to someone else - without scrutiny... or so it would seem. #r4today

It might have been much more impactful if the Pope had simply turned around and said, "Beware of false prophets" #r4today
