Your Party⁩ has reopened membership. This'll be interesting.

Some guy on the bus just complimented me for "carrying the flag". It's a fucking M and S paper bag with a union jack on it...

God tier trolling from Polanski.

Keir Starmer has to go. He ran as the clean hands "change" candidate for Prime Minister. Deliberately overlooking your ambassador to the USA's links to celebrity nonce Jeffrey Epstein, and defending him to parliament before caving in and sacking him, does not shout "clean hands". New PM needed.

🚨 BIRMINGHAM BINS | STRIKE EXTENDED Throughout this dispute the govt has denied any involvement. It is now clear that commissioners reporting to Angela Rayner blocked a ball park deal thrashed out at ACAS. 1/2 ⤵️

Read the thread. Extraordinary.

"My hatred for saying things which are true."

Antonia Bance is a Labour MP.

The people who once advocated so hard for the IHRA definition of antisemitism have devalued it. It's become in its implementation the very thing is wasn't supposed to be. I used to support it myself. I don't now.

I've just been to an M and S. I take it there's no controversy over which gender is in the oat cake section?

Is "if you oppose the Online Safety Bill then you love nonces" seriously the official Labour party position?

Glasgow Muvvas and Grandmuvvas march latest: Nick Tenconi of UKIP has just asked the march through a sound system whether any of them are local and if any of them know where the asylum hotel is.

If Diane Abbott publicly resigns from the Labour party and dominates tomorrow morning's headlines I'm gonna laugh sooo hard...

Rachael Maskell has been suspended from the Labour whip, for being right about PIP and Universal Credit cuts.

Rachael Maskell reported to be in the Labour whips' office, following suspension of three other MPs for rebelling on the Welfare Bill. If Keir Starmer suspends her too, that would be a really bad call.

"Oh my, what a surprise, here at Reform UK we're so shocked, James McMurdock seemed such a lovely guy" etc. I think the most surprising thing about all this is that Lee Anderson gets to pose as the guardian of all that's decent.

There has never been a better post 1945 case for general taxation funding anything, than for the abolition of abolishing care charges for recipients of domiciliary or residential care. Overwhelmingly net contributors to the economy who have become ill or disabled. Any decent society would do this.

the fuck is this

My speech today as I voted against the UC&PIP Bill after proposing my reasoned amendment #York #UC #PIP #Welfare

@jessphillipsmp.bsky.social @larry-turner.bsky.social @preetkgillmp.bsky.social @tahiralimp.bsky.social @liambyrnemp.bsky.social I think Birmingham MPs should be considering signing this.

The thing with the disabled people of the future is they can't write to their MP by Tuesday. But if this goes through, one day they will.

Israel isn't in control of the United States. This is just who the US is and has always been. Saying we're controlled is just a way of saying we're victims. We're not. We're an imperial power that likes war because it's profitable and enriches our oligarchs. That's it.

Trump bombs Iran. He actually did it.

Keir Starmer might want to spend less time worrying about Kneecap being at Glastonbury and more time rethinking his disgusting attitude toward PIP and Universal Credit cuts. www.standard.co.uk/culture/musi...

Palestine Action is about to be proscribed as a "terrorist" group. It's a group of people doing stunts, of dubious legality, but stunts. The Yekîneyên Parastina Gel (YPG) in Syrian Kurdistan is on the UK proscribed list already. It's a guerilla army which fought much of the ground war against ISIS.

The Terrorism Act has a potentially very broad definition of "terrorism" that has only been tenable by governments not exploiting every last nook and cranny of that definition This looks like the government exploiting every last nook and cranny of that definition www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

The British parliament, including a significant cohort of MPs in service for less than a year, has just narrowly voted through the largest expansion of the power of the state to terminate life, that there's been in my lifetime. The assisted dying bill, just passed, is appalling. #AssistedDyingBill

Well done @vickyfoxcroftmp.bsky.social. Principled. Courageous. You should be very proud of yourself tonight, because people who understand the impact of PIP and Universal Credit LCWRA cuts are certainly proud of you.

This is insane.

I don't normally share Brendan O'Neill's crap here at all, let alone his nonsense on Israel nor Twitter stuff in general, but ngl the replies absolutely make this post. x.com/spectator/st...

Watching the cringey, planted Labour contributions to the Winter Fuel Allowance debate in the Commons. "Mr Speaker, no one I have spoken to on the doorsteps in (insert random place name here) believes millionaires should get the WFA and they all welcome means testing, but blah blah"... Cringey af.

James McMurdock MP, a sitting member of the UK parliament, speaks. This is the Reform UK Party's attitude to refugees and asylum seekers.

Lol. Ten years ago I was a left wing extremist apologist for jihadism for saying Prevent was a bag of grifter crap and should be shut down, and now apparently I'm a right wing extremist apologist for fascism, for staying the same obvious truth. www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/202...

So Dawn French is Twitter's new Official Worst Person Ever, now that Gary Lineker has retired? Who's next, one of the Teletubbies?

Lol. Zia Yusuf returns to Reform UK. Wonder what he's been offered. Deputy Leader instead of Tice? Nigel's anointed successor? www.bbc.com/news/article...

"MugGate" lol? I'm assuming Pochin isn't going to try to claim she was innocently handed the Islamophobic mug in a greasy spoon...

Tribune has been sold to the guy who owns the Islam channel, and the hysterical reaction to it in some quarters is hilarious, I'm sorry but it is. Has anyone even bought a copy of Tribune since like 1999?

Quite something how when the targets are Muslims and the Qur'an, that fact can have self described "liberals" howling for the rights of people who stage public book burnings. I seem to remember public book burnings were a thing for a certain historical regime which targeted different minorities.

"Devastating Dispatch"... that a part of Birmingham is majority Muslim and a local political candidate has been nicked. God, what an absolute fanny whoever had the idea for this must be. I bet he's scared of the man in the kebab shop. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

If I recall, didn't Robbie Travers' social media feed at one point claim he'd actually died (which he hadn't)?

Nobody needs to behave like this. I appreciate I am a terrible messenger for this, but put your phone down and go outside.

🚨 A statement: Over the past year James O’Brien & others have made claims about my departure from LBC. I’m restricted in what I can share with you but hope the statement below will draw a line under the matter. My focus is on moving forward. I am grateful for your continued support, Sangita

Sooo, the "Great British Strike" was a flop then, even with active promotion from GB News. Still, I bet sales of Stella ticked up.

Are the knucklehead people live streaming this "Great British National Strike" (it's not a strike) thing that's appearing in various cities at midday?

How is it that members of the former Revolutionary Communist Party (Living Marxism) group's murky astroturf successor organisations are still regularly panel members on Question Time, the Moral Maze and similar shows, even though everyone knows who they are?

Ok look I have to know, wtf is the craic with this plot by east European "models" to torch houses etc linked to Keir Starmer? It sounds like the weirdest bloody thing since the 1970s Liberal party.

This'll go down well, said no one. Labour party to delay women’s conference and exclude trans people from women’s officer roles over Supreme court ruling. labourlist.org/2025/05/labo...

It comes to something that such is the state of UK politics, that there's an actual row about whether the Eurovision programme is antisemitic. I mean, seriously...

Keir Starmer's pathetic, rude, angry reply to Liz Saville Roberts holding up a mirror and showing him at PMQs, speaks absolute volumes. When she asked him, in light of his speech on immigration, whether he has any belief which lasts over a week, she was reflecting a simple truth, and he knows it.

Tahir Ali, campaigner for Mirpur Airport and sometimes Labour MP for Birmingham Hall Green and Moseley, being investigated over £59,000 in expense claims for travel etc? Well colour me shocked. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
