When we took office, NYC had a $12B deficit. Today it’s zero. And we didn’t close that gap on the backs of working people. We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets, & public housing. Call it Pothole Politics or Democratic Socialism: We are government that delivers for the people.

I understand being optimistic & talking about the issues, but framing questions this way gives the frontbench a credibility they don’t deserve, the things they have had to agree w/justify to retain their position at this point should tell anyone they have no interest in the change that’s needed

If anyone wants to talk ungovernable I drove past a fella in the Asda car park wearing a Jimmy Saville shirt, no ironic editing just spiteful revisionism, had me speechless

Has Jess Phillips announced which part of Starmer's anatomy she's thinking of stabbing?

I note that this bald man has not posted this here

Say what you like, no one knows her lines like Pippa!

"We worked tirelessly for a decade to ensure this was the only possible ideology available and that these specific politicians were implementing it. That ideology is deeply unpopular and the politicians terrible at their jobs. Why would the public do this?"

Jess Phillips telling me that deeds not words matter would destroy me tbh, the absolute front of it

“The revealed preference is their core voters actively enjoy being taken for a ride by the most obvious scam artists you’ve ever seen, as long as they validate their morbid pathologies about race and gender as they do so.” www.liberalcurrents.com/respecting-r...

Incredible

obviously I hate Reform and the Tories because they're the natural enemy of everything I believe in, but I *despise* the Labour right because they have sabotaged any possibility of an alternative from within, and salted the earth behind them, out of sheer petty vindictiveness

‘I never thought he’d tell ME to fuck off!’ says the cabinet minister from the Telling Supporters to Fuck Off Party

When you’re so far removed from the economic realities of millions living paycheck to paycheck in a precarious labour market so you can bemoan Brits lack of investing in stocks like their American counterparts and blame the fella trying to help in accessible ways

Bizarre. How did the Labour Party and the government wind up being led by a guy whose only allies are PR men? 🤔

#OtD 11 May 1968 French police began their assault on Paris's Latin Quarter which had been barricaded by student protesters. They managed to evict protesters, but anger at the violence caused protests to escalate. Artwork from the movement available here: shop.workingclasshistory.com/collections/...

Four years ago today, Shireen Abu Akleh was assassinated by an Israeli soldier. Since then, Israel has killed more than 275 journalists in Gaza and Lebanon. The world that let Shireen's killer walk free made all of this possible. mondoweiss.net/2026/05/from... #Palestine #Israel

The opposite of fascism is not moderation.

George Osborne has challenged Sir Kier Starmer for leadership of the Labour Party

Arsenal didn’t win that game, that game was given to Arsenal

Labour stans telling you why you should still vote Labour by reeling off a list of the most watered down, moth eaten, fiddle round the edges policies that haven’t addressed or averted any of the most pressing issues as they all fundamentally rest on upholding an unequal market driven system

“The Greens have not done enough to root out antisemitism in the party”

"Yep, here’s your problem. Someone set this thing to Evil."

The hollow cynicism of this entire farce can be instantly laid bare by simply asking what specifically Farage and Reform UK have done to support the fight against antisemitism – because I'll be honest, I don't follow developments in that party beat-by-beat, but this claim is certainly news to me.

Love the energy but I don’t know who she seems to think is waiting in the wings other than a disappointing array of grifting moral blanks

Also fuck the Home Office. They're closing down an asylum hotel near us and moving people randomly all over the country, tearing them from their communities and friends with only a few days notice. We've lost about a dozen members of our community in the last month and it's just so horrible.

‘West says Starmer has done excellent work on rebuilding the Labour Party and on Foreign policy’… ma’am, what do you mean?

I feel like male violence against women is so acceptable - that a man bombing his partner and himself to death in Bristol isn’t being treated by media, pundits and politicians as being illustrative of a national emergency and an act of terrorism- It absolutely is www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I am seeing a lot of the 'Reform won't be competent' argument coming up. Reform are a 'post competence party'. They exist in a world where neoliberalism has told people politics can't work, and won't. They won't be assessed on competence. Their voters don't expect them to be. /1

Right wing propagandist outlets should be viewed less as money losing endeavors than investments that pay dividends in other ways.

Gordon Brown trying to paint himself as some kind of crusader for welfare in his post government years then scurrying back to do another round of chatting up the banks

Eli Lily - the firm who has been repeatedly fined in the US due to price gouging of insulin and Medicaid fraud - paused research investment in the UK specifically citing lack of a ‘competitive market’ in drug pricing

Since Starmer is a man so devoid of ideas or independent initiative I imagine this reset will consist of or devolve quickly into purges and smears against deemed internal threats to his position and fixations on perceived legacy

I'm curious how far up the Reform Party hierarchy we have to look before we stop seeing marks and start seeing grifters?

Bringing in party grandees after a local election that screamed ‘we don’t want the same thing that’s been offered’ does not say ‘a man who’s learnt to listen’ it says ‘help, I need the grown ups to tell me what to do’

One of the best tweets to come out of Scottish Twitter sums it up in a nutshell...

If you think a hypothetical President Kamala Harris wouldn’t have joined in on a war with Iran after Israel started aggression, you are, quite simply, gullible as all fuck.

We’re gonna sit on that fence like never before!

Reform won 58 out of 63 Wakefield seats. Labour dropped from 56 to 1.

destroying the trees themselves instead of the peaches is where this goes from unmitigated greed into actual evil

Labour MPs tweeting that Keir Starmer should stay

(doing the bare minimum) you have no idea what i go through every day

Thank you Labour for outflanking the dead Milk Snatcher to the right

Think my local council must just be refusing to count because they know they’re about to have to handover to a bunch of fellas you don’t wanna make eye contact with in the pub

Maybe the Labour party could turn this round by being even worse.
