At one point @jonnelledge.bsky.social says he is stunned because I've said something vaguely perceptive. A rarity of course.

Brilliant to be back at The Boat Inn for pint no. 11 of the Pub Tour. Caz and Carl helped the local community when the floods came last year. And a massive thanks to @avasantina.bsky.social from @politicsjoe.bsky.social for coming to see what it was all about.

Fmr Reform Comms Dir says Musk's salute was "sci-fi". @avasantina.bsky.social: "For years we've been told the thing we need to be most frightened of is what pronouns people use. Then someone actually does a Nazi salute behind the president's podium on live TV and we're fine with that?"🔥~AA

Talking about housing with one of my favourite speakers @kwajo.bsky.social this weekend ! what an honour

We're looking forward to welcoming @avasantina.bsky.social!

nice font that

Tell you what fellas there’ll be a couple politicians this fine Sunday wondering if maybe they’d have added a couple amendments to the online safety bill then one man wouldn’t have unfettered and unregulated access to wreak havoc on British politics

He’s trolling the British right

Yesterday Nigel Farage told me Elon Musk was a massive hero who’d helped secure youth party members

guys you’re missing this

Noooo that’s so mean say more mean things like this

Had a lovely time recording this with these very funny women !!

Labour MP Jas Athwal in the commons asks what the government is doing to tackle health inequalities and disparities in the workplace. Minister could have suggested Athwal starts with the flats he rents with black mould and ant infestations

Bishop last night at carols described Jesus as “helplessly courageous”. Thought about that absurdity until I had a proper headache. Never going to a Protestant service again

My new documentary on Spartan Bare Knuckle Fight Club is out now, really proud of this one, would appreciate a share and a watch if you have the time x youtu.be/UlOmwOqgPVM?...

Results are in and can confirm I am not “massive” or “the size of a wind turbine” as some YouTube commenters would have you believe

Oof - @thercn.bsky.social has described government’s proposed £2 pay rise for nurses as “deeply offensive”

Over on BBC Radio 4 Evan Davis has described an image which reads the “hot CEO assassin” and when I tell you the air left my lungs laughing

Starmer is trying to get people excited with some new pledges, @avasantina.bsky.social talks through the fallout. Plus, there’s a hitman story in New York and @msmirandasawyer.bsky.social has dug into the deets. Plus, Jessica Fostekew talks us through Spotify wrapped ➡️ linktr.ee/papercutsshow

Breaking: Transport Secretary Louise Haigh has resigned.

Spent the entire evening in Parliament and was hard pressed to find something on this. Even one Tory who went to the post drinks had nothing to say about the speech. It should be pretty concerning for a new leader that even people who were present at a primary speech didn’t care about it.

big turn out

just letting you all know

One of the best articles we've ever published, in which @roisinlanigan.bsky.social examines her own marriage, and the myth of the 'chic young divorcée'. www.the-fence.com/the-chic-you...

It's probably a terrible take but I find it grossly irresponsible to have two women who are clearly suffering from very serious eating disorders promoting the biggest film of the year

Keir Starmer on ITV's This Morning has agreed to host a cooking segment. He says he loves cooking on a Saturday, his staple dish being a ham pasta bake. He also makes a tandoori salmon.

Arrived at the pub last night to @avasantina.bsky.social informing me that the evening was conversationally doomed, which is such a powerful energy. Takes the pressure off. It’s not my fault, it’s the stars or something.

live by a popular brunch place and they’re already singing defying gravity. Very aggressive, violent even.

A classic Emily Thornberry response to this: "Whatever. I mean, whatever. If people want to vote for him, fine. You know, whatever." @lewis_goodall: "That was an absolutely vintage Emily Thornberry eye roll there."

Job ad for an “EU Sherpa” to work on trade relations between UK and EU was just posted.

Striking visual in the House of Commons as the benches empty ahead of a debate on International Men's Day. Dawn Butler says: "I get a lot of abuse online asking why don't we have an international men's day debate.. well we are.. and the House is not full". "Where is everyone?"

Lib Dems on Netanyahu arrest: “The previous Conservative Government denigrated the International Criminal Court and undermined the UK’s standing on the world stage”

Prescott isn't in this one but it's a fun back and forth between William Hague and Tony Blair

TUC Union says ONS data released today showing increase of young people out of work/education by 9% in the last year is the result of “toxic Tory economic legacy”

Angela Rayner describes John Prescott as a “giant of the labour movement and loyal friend” “Fiercely proud of his working class and trade union roots, he never lost sight of who he came into politics to serve.“

@thefence.bsky.social welcome king

nice bit of...cross-party support here

Alex Burghart, delivering Deputy PMQs today, was PPS to Boris Johnson during Partygate.

Alex Burghart at DPMQs today says there were "men in tears" yday at farming protest. Wonder how those farmers felt when he voted against making imported agricultural & food imports meet domestic standards* Butchering British competitiveness in the market..

I am on my knees begging you for a morsel of perspective

Good news out of Mayor of London's office: Sadiq Khan's Universal Primary Free School Meals significantly enhance health, wellbeing, and financial stability for London families, according to a study by Urban Health. Who'd have thunk it!

Some confusion this morning after a rather confused media round/briefings from Labour. Just like winter fuel - where the subsequent line was "many won't be affected", claims today are circulating that people with £1-£2m farms won't have to sell up. Gov.uk contradicts those claims

Furious farmers descend on Central London youtu.be/OLFaUtAeH-8

Went to the farmers protest, got icy feet then edited this like speedy gonzales so yeah if you could watch it that would be cool youtu.be/OLFaUtAeH-8

Nigel Farage says farmer grievances have nothing to do with Brexit.

the plight of farmers long precedes this Labour government. Here's a protest from earlier this year, after a barrage of red tape threatened to wipe out their livelihoods: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOpF...

went to a farm www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDdN...
