I think the media and opposition parties, including the Lib Dems and Greens have gone too far with their attacks on Keir Starmer this week. People's reactions are showing us the impact! I am seeing so many who are: + posting their support for the PM 1/2

Our Labour government is set to develop and implement a world-first deepfake detection evaluation framework. It will establish consistent standards for assessing all types of detection tools and technologies and identify gaps in deepfake detection. Well done Labour. Yet again.

The UK PM has today had his 2nd call with the President of the United States this week. Both calls have discussed events in Ukraine & peace negotiations. Both also so the pair talk about the joint UK–US base on Diego Garcia. Important work still ongoing, despite the media circus we have right now.

Enjoying a beer tonight. Mad Squirrel The Nutcracker Hazelnut Stout. Hoping the PM is also enjoying a beer somewhere tonight. He's earned it this week! Keep up the great work Keir!

I am sorry, but the proposals for restoration of the Palace of Westminister / Houses of Parliament are absurd. One option is £40bn taking 61 years. The other option is £15.6bn involving one or both Houses moving out for up to 24 years. It's the time scales which are just crazy. 1/2

🙀🇬🇧🙀🇬🇧🙀🇬🇧🙀🇬🇧🙀🇬🇧 To all the anti Starmer anti Labour nebbishes on here: This cunt supports rapists, child abusers, racists, dodgy middle eastern countries, Putin, Musk, Robinson, hates us Jews, wants ICE. Etc et bloody c. Your next Prime Minister? you are not a serious person.

The PM seems strong, calm and relaxed here. We can all relax. He is going nowhere.

A reminder if you need it: The scandal around Mandelson today: 1. is not because he knew Epstein - we've known that for years & years 2. is not because he kept relations with Epstein longer than we thought & was closer to him than we thought - that was all revealed last year & resulted... 1/2

😠😠😠 Oh FGS! Get a fecking grip people and stop being media dupes! Has anyone died from covid? Have we been lied to re leaving the EU? Has anyone lost their Mortgage? A reminder of PMs who knowingly screwed the country. And one who wants to. I support Sir Keir. Unfollow me if you are a media dupe

Labour say: Offshore wind firms must sign up to a ‘Fair Work Charter’ to participate in government renewables auctions. It will help speed up the delivery of actions in the Emplopyment Rights Act 2025 for people in the industry. More clean energy, better job, improved workers rights. All at once!

Sir Keir Starmer is among the best PMs we've had this side of WW2. He is fixing our country, repairing the damage caused by the Tories. He is hated, detested even, by those who wish to damage our country & exploit us all. He is the PM we need for these times. Get behind him! No ifs. No buts.

UK Foreign Secretary slams collective global failure to protect Sudan's women and girls as she visited Adré on the Sudanese border in Chad. She called for urgent global action to secure a ceasefire as the UK tries to bring global attention on Sudan, the world’s greatest humanitarian crisis.

I have totally lost faith in the British public. I feel like I am surrounded absolute idiots. Almost every single one of them. Thankfully some of you guys keep me sane. But left and right, educated and uneducated, most people have lost the fucking plot entirely. As a society we are doomed.

Farage is a danger to us all. Why is no one investigating & exposing his extensive links to a secretive, dodgy and illegal network of individuals around the world who are trying to subvert our democracy, with funding from Russia? 1/2

@mrjamesob.bsky.social I would LOVE you to spend a whole hour or even a whole show exploring the links of Farage and Reform with Steve Bannon, Russia and what is in the Epstein files about him! Needs exploring extensively and repeating often. This is the big issue and real danger we face.

This. If you are calling for Starmer to go over Mandelson, give your fucking head a wobble. Reform are the real enemy. The media is a real problem. You are doing the work of Reform/the media/Russia for them if you are using this as another way to bash Starmer and Labour. Fight the real enemy!

Well that is LBC close to going off...all comes down to the stance the first caller makes..

It seems Reform cannot manage their MPs any more nor get them to vote correctly. Reports last night said both Jenrick and Braverman had accidentally entered the 'aye' lobby to vote with Labour on scrapping the 2-child cap on benefits. The voting record didn't include them then, but does now. 1/2

Labour's new National Cancer Plan will have a long term commitment that 75% of people diagnosed with cancer will either be cancer free or living well after 5 years (from 60%). This would represent the fastest rate of improvements in cancer outcomes for a century and save thousands of lives. 1/5

Peter Mandelson resigns from Lords I'm actually annoyed at this, as I wanted him to be removed, not chosing to leave. I wanted the government to bring in rule changes to be able to remove not just him but any all Lords accused of serious wrong doing. 1/2
