Nigel Farage wants to: - dismantle the NHS as it currently exists - stop 'low skill/low wage' health workers from coming in. - deport some existing health workers And yet quite a lot of people now trust him on the NHS. FFS. His ratings on this must surely be very vulnerable in a general election.

Good news! The NHS will offer long-acting injectable PrEP. 6 jabs a year offers almost 100% protection against HIV acquisition. Currently the plan is for limited rollout, for those unable to take PrEP pills. Better if it were offered to all. Choice is key. www.england.nhs.uk/2025/10/nhs-...

Maybe Doctors could have Doctor training? Instead of flooding the NHS with untrained PA's.

Minimum wage 491 employers have been found to be failing to pay minimum wage in the latest round of checks published today. They have been finded over £10m and over £6m in pay has been handed over to 42,000 workers. Soon, the Fair Work Agency will be in action, with even more enforcement powers!

The Tory media's shift from hysterically claiming that Starmer *did* intervene in the China spy case to hysterically claiming that Starmer *should* have intervened in the China spy case is a thing to behold.

Brexit is Farage and his fellow Brexiters' shitstorm to own. He/they can't be allowed to just pivot from heckle to heckle and bad idea to worse - while blaming everyone else - without consequences. So the suggestion that Labour are going to amplify that truth is to be welcomed.

I understand Starmer is unpopular with voters, they think he's doing a bad job and all that but I genuinely don't understand that sub group of people who have an all-consuming hatred of him. They *hate* him with a passion. He's just, well,dull. Impressive, tbh.

Tories put barriers to getting on the housing ladder, held back economic growth & doubled homelessness. Labour will smash down those barriers. #Labour

Reform: the equivalent of a political suicide pill.

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack. Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia. Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

Teesside’s freeport, initiated in 2021 under Rishi Sunak, has cost £560 million far exceeding the standard £25 million allocation (22 times the standard £25m). 90% profits go to the private sector. This clearly shows the UK model of State aid post-Brexit is utterly corrupt.

Zack Polanski is a breath of fresh air, because he is exposing far right populism and all the lies. And everyone is listening because they've had enough. Labour , Tories and Reform are all the same now and that's why he stands out exposing all their hypocrisy.

"The need is urgent for some coalition of politicians to take the lead and state baldly that Brexit was an error." "The public is clearly ready to see Brexit reversed. There cannot be a single industry that would oppose it. The need is for leadership." https://bit.ly/42Btcnf

The Labour trolls are out in force today. Zack has really gotten them rattled.

Last week the Guardian ran a story using unnamed sources to claim Labour were going to charge fees to workers wanting to take their employer to tribunals. People & unions got angry, despite no proof. Now we get a story that apparently Labour hav rejectednthe plans following Union backlash... 1/3

If Starmer wants to ban inflammatory chants I suggest he start with ‘Vote Labour’

I sometimes worry I exaggerate the collective madness of our media but the people who cheered Brexit, Boris Johnson & Liz Truss's mini-budget are now applauding Kemi Badenoch's speech. 'Parallell universe' doesn't come close. I suppose her not falling over is a win of sorts for them at the moment.

This is one of the issues London Labour insiders raised with me in this piece on Labour & London – Labour is taking the votes of the capital for granted, and is about to impose major local government austerity on councils who were hard hit first time round. www.thenewworld.co.uk/james-ball-l...

I have committed to keeping our NHS publicly owned and publicly funded. Private finance is not welcome in our NHS, and must be ruled out at the Autumn Budget this November. @weownit.org.uk

Abolish Landlords. Abolish Water Companies. Abolish Energy Companies. Abolish NHS Privatisation. Take back control.

Don't forget that 41 Tory MPs in the last government took Russian donations. That might account for media reticence to report on the Nathan Gill case.

After spending an entire morning defending his suggestion that there are too many non-white faces in the UK, Robert Jenrick ends his speech with the line: "Let's take our country back".

Reform lied to get elected to Kent County Council, promising tax cuts in their election material. The only tax councils have any say over is council tax & now Reform are saying they will increase it. Failure to deliver on what they promised after just 5 months. #NeverVoteReform #NeverFarage

If I cringe any harder at the Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp's stand-up comedy routine, I may fold in on myself, collapsing into a PSR-J0952–0607-style neutron star of vicarious embarrassment. ~AA

A few people are reading this and deciding it's a defence of Starmer.

No one in Reform U.K. Ltd knows Nathan Gill the ex Reform leader in Wales who was convicted of taking bribes to promote Putin’s Russia. Here is Richard Tice not knowing him.

And by "calls" they mean their own Reform propaganda channel and a few snowflakes that demand free speech, but only for right wing gobshites.

It seems that a lot of Farage's 'pull factor' comes from the fact that he will do anything to flout the system & get away with it...the Boris Johnson effect. Have people learned nothing from the last dose of this the UK had?

But didn't really die when it became the Boris Johnson supporter club? Despite his obvious duplicity, track record of failure and breaking his word and astonishing narcissistic behaviour they voted him in and worshipped him. After they ditched him it was a hollow shell, a walking corpse of an entity

The closer than the Tories get to Reform, the more it makes sense for Labour to leave them to it and head back towards the centre. Stop bashing immigrants 24/7 and concentrate on the important stuff.

Leaving the ECHR is just another "cause" that right-wing lunatics can latch onto. It's Brexit 2. And like the original most people backing, it don't understand it, don't really believe in what they are doing and do not care one jot what havoc it causes.

We flounced out of the EU on the say-so of politicians who lied to us. And what a total shitshow that’s turned out to be. The polar opposite of what they promised. Now the call to flounce out of the ECHR. By the same people. Telling the same lies. Has the country been kicked in the head by a horse?

Is our country broken? No! We have a lot to be proud of, as mentioned by the PM in his speech. Enough of Reform, the Tories and populists promising easy fixes! We need; indeed we have, a government with a real plan to renew Britain and give us even more to be proud of.

This is a really good piece on why despite whatever the polls tell us about who supports Labour we are never gonna cut loose those working class voters. They are very likely family or friends or people members grew up with. It *feels* like Labour should be *for* them.

It’s like an art form. Alienate Reform voters on one day, alienate Labour voters the next.

In all honesty, it’s not rhetoric any more. It’s not narrative. I’ve experienced more racism in the last 4 months than I can ever remember. The wheels are off in the UK and it’s being led by 3 political parties.

People recognised as refugees fleeing persecution & granted the right to live in the UK to be denied the right to be joined safely by their spouse & children. This Labour govt is a moral void, a stinking darkness, an empty hollow of cowardice & contempt. #r4today www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Well, it turns out 'let Starmer be Starmer' might actually be (for once) a game changer - if he keeps going on this track. Fantastic stuff. Fuck you Farage.

Political journos are all noting how surprising it is that it’s now all about Starmer v Farage, not Starmer v Badenoch. Except it’s not surprising at all, given the very same journos have been platforming this poundshop Alf Garnett for years, when he wasn’t even an elected MP.

Nigel Farage accuses Starmer of "inciting violence" by calling Reform's racist policies "racist"

"Brexit lies on the side of that bus," Starmer says, mocking populist rhetoric, "click here for your new country". Very rare moment of criticism of Brexit from him.

"I hope Starmer wakes up tomorrow morning and feels ashamed about what he has done," says man who unveiled this poster the day Jo Cox was assassinated by a far-right terrorist.

We are losing more voters to the Greens and Lib Dems than to Reform. We need to stop trying to out-Reform Reform, start listening to members, and pursue a more progressive policy agenda. That can start with ending the Two Child Benefit Cap.

Andy Burnham on why he’s for rejoining the EU… …and why we need to call out Reform on Brexit. 👏👏👏👏

Reform have become the Temu of UK politics - always, there, always annoying & cheap as shit.

3% more and this Labour Government need to worry more about the left - than the right. Lower bills. Protect the NHS. Nationalise our public services. This is how we start to turn our country around. Join.greenparty.org.uk

Farage is applying for a job. That job is Prime Minister. The only thing on his CV is Brexit. He campaigned for it for 27 years. So his only real track record is making everyone poorer & damaging the NHS. If you hire Nigel & Reform, you must want this company (UK) to fail.

as a matter of urgency, this labour government must be removed from office
