What job titles would they have in businesses or teams you’ve worked in? Who would be the most senior?

I see and remember Louise Gliot today.

Keep your eyes on the ball Labour, Greens and others. The cost of infighting and kicking lumps out of each other, is too great to contemplate. Your first duty is to protect citizens and we deserve a coalition of the left, however that comes about.

As I've said many times, I'm not a Labour voter. But the party I vote for, Lib Dems, is unlikely to form a majority government. This government, even if I disagree with some policies, has done more in 2 years than the Tories ever did for me in their 14 years of government.

Good leadership.

I used to be a member of the Green Party. My guess is these people didn’t. The hard left is every bit as ugly as the hard right.

Captain of team that started the game three-nil down and dragged the score back to three-three in adverse weather conditions on a waterlogged pitch, substituted before half-time?

Norway. Norway. Norway. It’s the solution. Farage famously campaigned for a Norway style deal. So let’s start with that. Bring it on if Farage dares to utter the word ‘betrayal’. Share the evidence. Expose his lies.

Britain "at the heart of Europe", 2026 edition:

Turns out the hard left isn’t as popular as the hard right.

How the left make hard right possible 😔

I’m starting to think Keir Starmer’s Achilles heel is that his name rhymes with a lot of things. In this sense Zack Polanski has played a blinder. Jew Harmer, Two Tier Keir, Free Gear Keir, Starmergeddon, Keir Starlin, Farmer Harmer Starmer, Beer Korma, Keir Starmalade. #GurinderSinghJosanforPM

Hey everyone, I asked a genuinely interesting question!

This is what a meniscus thin skin looks like. Hard to comprehend this sort of stuff occupies the President’s mind while the world is on fire. And it’s fake of course, which is on brand. #Trump # Springsteen

A head-to-head strategy that will cancel out Green and Labour votes and deliver a far right government. We expect the left to work in coalition and not to flirt with losing everything.

None of us expected Viktor Orbán to concede defeat so readily but I suspect he’ll be relieved to relinquish the role of Moscow’s stooge. It always carried enormous personal risk and doubtless exacted a high price on him. This was the only way out.

Hope of deliverance 🇭🇺 Today should mark the end of Orban’s regime but giving up power is not what authoritarians do. People of Hungary, you are in our thoughts and prayers. #Hungary #election #Magyar #Orban

You can do it Hungary 🇭🇺 We’re rooting for you.

When you bomb civilians you’ve lost the war, you’ve lost respect, you’ve lost your soul. Don’t talk about victory or winning, it’s beyond pathetic.

“You know what, I don’t need it”. Words Nigel Farage will say as he quits Reform when it becomes clear he won’t be PM, so he’ll using media scrutiny as an off-ramp, calling it outrageous and intrusive treatment but, you know what, he’s made his millions and it never was about helping anyone else.

American Vice President giving full throated support for Europe’s most corrupt and authoritarian leader is a bad look.

So quick to dismiss the global workerati.

Oh America. Nothing was broken in 2024. There was no swamp to drain. With Kamala Harris you had an ace to serve. What you did wasn’t self-harm because it’s harmed all of us. The history books will eviscerate Trump and everyone of you who made his presidency possible.

Cut and paste #Trump #USA

Regime change please #Trump #USA

Europe is the shield against imperialism. The US is gone.

Latest evidence that things are easier when you don’t have to make decisions that affect everyone.

The allegory is so loud it's giving me a headache.

Hungary knows that stopping fascism is the priority. In the UK, Labour and the Greens need to stop kicking lumps out of each other and cooperate to save our democracy.

Realised I couldn’t name or even picture Joe Biden’s Secretaries of Defense, Health or Homeland Security, or his Press Secretary. That’s a good thing. Noisy fealty or quiet competence, which would you choose? #USA #Trump #NoKings #Hegseth #Kennedy #Mullin #Leavitt

When someone asks what hubris means.

What is it about Norway that the right wing simultaneously loves and fails to understand? Remember Farage and his Norway style BrExit deal before the sharp U-turn? And now Badenoch proposing we follow Norway’s lead on oil while the UK has a totally incompatible ownership model thanks to her party 🇳🇴

Jesus, they weren’t bloody joking.

#Trump is an old man. He has a short attention span. He gets dopamine hits from destroying things; instant gratification. Building things takes too long, and time and patience he doesn’t have. It’s why he’ll lose interest in Iran and he’ll try to dismantle NATO.

The Iran war should be a lesson for Keir Starmer's Government. If you take a clear line on an issue where the public agree with you then it's your opponents who end up having to back down, not you

Boris Johnson surrounded himself with weak, flawed, incompetent people whose main quality was their fealty. The damage was profound, inevitably leading to his defeat. Trump is on the same story arc and, come the midterms, the incompetence could scupper his determination to cling onto power.

I like this cartoon so much we paid the New Yorker the fee it requested to include it in my book. We’ve not even had the vote 100 years. Let’s not let thing backslide. Happy International Women’s Day, one and all.

There is almost no difference between the UK and French positions on Iran. But Macron's approach has been broadly accepted by French media and the opposition - except for the extreme left. The parallel with the UK is interesting.

Expect Trump to pivot to Ukraine in an effort to restore his “reputation” as the leader who ends wars. Trump will lean on Ukraine to make it yield so he can declare victory and move on. Even better if he can turn a profit. More suffering sold to the world as statesmanship.

Like it that Jesus needs a name badge. Still doing good deeds I see, now turning water into Diet Coke.

‘Making hope normal again’ might have a whiff of ‘Better together’ about it if the left vote splits down the middle. I hope not but then I didn’t think we’d be stupid enough to leave the EU and I didn’t think Americans would be dumb enough to elect Trump for a second term. Shit, it seems, happens.

It’s easy to lead when you’re not the one who carries the weight of the consequences.

Rule of thumb; any country that appoints a Fox News anchor as its head honcho, renames its ‘Department of Defense’ the ‘Department of War’, and calls a military operation ‘Operation Epic Fury’, is going to be a dangerous ally.

He’s a smart person. Explain to me why Keir Starmer’s judgement is so poor.

I keep thinking about the midterms. If Trump loses, he’s cooked; they’re all cooked. So he’s not going to lose. The question is, will he be able to resist not winning by an historic, never seen before, unprecedented and unbelievable margin? Prepare to be affronted all over again.

No political party has got everything right. I’d rather our politicians engaged with each other and debated policies rather than resorting to fear-mongering, name-calling and mud-slinging (which every party is doing). We’re better than this.

One reason I left the GP was because it recklessly fielded a candidate in my marginal seat it stood no chance of winning. Labour aren’t a distant third in Gorton and Denton. In the next GE the left vote is going to be split in a lot of constituencies. The hope is the right is split more.

Labour’s communication strategy is pretty woeful. I feel as if Hannah Spencer could be my specialist subject on Mastermind. I know next to nothing about Angeliki Stogia. Labour is losing a generation of voters who don’t know what it stands for and who can’t relate to its leaders.
