Under our Labour government Homes England is stepping up its work building much needed new homes. + 40,2000 home completions - highest for 6yrs, 9% up on the year before and 97% of the governments target + construction started on 42,400 homes, up 11% on the year before and 114% of the target 1/2

With Reform UK, it's always about 'looking after our own' until it comes to feeding children. Labour is providing over 6,400 children across Kent County Council with free breakfast clubs. Reform UK literally want to take the food from their mouths. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

This just sums up Reform.... time to keep hammering away at what the real life consequences of being in reform led council/country looks like for ordinary everyday people.

Perhaps Burnham & Streeting see themselves as top predators, like sharks maybe? Labour members are part of a shoal -the MSM sharks are circling outside- taking little bites here & there- picking off the reckless ones who stray from the bait ball! Watch out you two - they clearly smell blood.

Just why Burnham & Streeting, you pair of planks.

Burnham accuses Streeting of harming his chances in the by-election by raising Brexit. So Burnham’s approach to Government will be to duck difficult issues and not address them? Getting immediate results from improving relations with EU is difficult. Welcome to Starmer’s in-tray.

I assume Streeting, Burnham, Rayner, Phillips et al(lies) knew that the negative hostile headlines would really begin today. Which, for me, is proof enough of their betrayal of a Labour Govt for their inglorious vain ambition, promising what is already being delivered. They'll not get my vote. 1/3

And so it begins ....doubts ..... evidence...and he hasn't even secured the candidacy yet. Buckle up Burnham - it's only going to get worse.

Burnham kicking Manchester in the face is a preview of what he will do to the UK if he becomes PM Dont be fooled he wil do anything better than Starmer,he just simply isnt good enough. Failed twice remember Insanity is doing the same thing over expecting different results Already had 2 chances.

😾💔🇬🇧😾💔🇬🇧😾💔 Erm ….

UK coup resignations: Blair - 7 ministers in 2006 Corbyn - 17 in 2016 coup & 10 quit the party in 2019 Johnson - 48 ministers over 5 days in 2022 Starmer - 4 ministers. Streeting's alleged 'coup' fizzled out. Puts it in perspective. posted by Jennifer Stewart

Andy Burnham in 2016. So what changed, Andy?

Sadly very true and very predictable chasing reform to beat Farage and Corbyn supporters to beat Greens...stuck in the middle with him is political suicide for Makerfield Labour - choose one of your own worthy hard working local members for goodness sake don't give in tt stitch up bullying.

Immigration make Britain brilliant

Genius 🤣🤣🤣 Snowflakes well and truly triggered. Best @ledbydonkeys.org ever! 🫡

This looks good - well done.

What the hell are Labour MPs doing ? Get behind the most effective leader you have had in decades

I’m glad to have joined a growing number of my Labour MP colleagues in signing this statement supporting the Prime Minister and opposing a leadership contest. I was also glad to help with the process of putting this together.

Every Labour MP and Councillor not just Starmer should be shouting this from the roof tops and where ever they operate - stop cowering in the face of MSM adversity and hostile questions... fight back...NOW

Your regular reminder that Zack Polanski joined the LibDems in 2015 (post-austerity!) and swapped to the Greens largely because he didn't get selected for a LibDem seat in 2017. So we are entitled to ask which Polanski we are being asked to vote for...

Pinched from a post on Threads, but it says it all really.

I just don’t think there should be a leadership challenge. Keir Starmer has a massive mandate given to him by the British people at the general election. I don’t think anybody in the Cabinet has a right to try to overturn that. www.telegraph.co.uk/gift/d0332ac...

Astute assessment of Burnham.

Starmer is still here cause he’s dealt with chancers all his life. He smells BS a mile away and he certainly smelt it from Streeting and Burnham. Bet no one thought last month hed still be here. Well he is and now Manchester might have a reform mayor. Streeting may have ended his career. Who’s weak?

Worth reminding ourselves and the media, Burnham isn't the new kid on the block riding to the rescue on a white charger (more like a knackered old donkey but I digress). He's been an MP or Mayor since 2001, he's got more baggage than I've got bags under my now 71 year old eyes.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social none of the new candidates in a hypothetical ‘leadership contest’have the gravitas or stature for the world stage. If we must pander to people who need a PM with charisma and populist slogans maybe we should get 2; a domestic PM and another to manage the serious world politics

Anyone who says Starmer hasn't brought change is just unaware. The only people who haven't brought any change is the media. -did you have sick pay from day before Starmer? -was your rail fare frozen before Starmer? -was your prescription charge frozen before Starmer? 1/6

I'm appalled by politicians and the media who think it's perfectly acceptable for a sitting Labour MP to stand down to enable a sitting Labour Mayor to stand down in order to contest the ensuing by-election. No wonder people have no faith in politicians or the media. So disrespectful to voters.

You what is all so brilliant about these major egos thinking they can waltz into No. 10 without doing the years of ground work like Starmer did: They knocked all the scrutiny of Farage's dodgy dealings from the top of the news. Gee, you guys are just so clever, aren't you!

What I would write in reply to Weasley Streeting: ( Warning: Long thread) You did a reasonable job. But it required three more years of hard work; attention to detail, develop an argument, persuade agreement rather than cajole, hector/ bully into submission & to see the job through to completion

This what every cabinet minister should produce about their achievements thus far. This tells the story of a difference a Labour Government makes.Well done Bridget!

Labour has already passed 50 new laws to tackle the cost of living, empower local communities and get a better deal for working people. In today’s King’s Speech we’re going further, with action on energy bills, national security, and making public services fit for the future.

Over 100 backbenchers and Parliamentary Private Secretaries have signed a statement saying this is ‘”no time for a leadership contest” Follow live updates: trib.al/mOHVDVT

It is hard to tell if Phillips' action is part of a coordinated plot or a response to Harman being appointed. Walking away from the struggle by abandoning post seems ironic. Perhaps she lacks stamina for the push & pull of politics? Isn't the sulky 'my way or no way' odd for a team player?

The man whose mantra is make the rich pay more tax, admits to not paying his own. Zack Polanski finding out it’s not so easy being in the public eye.

Concur with @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social on the nonsense about Starmer.

Net migration down 📉 Asylum backlog slashed 📉 Look past the Westminster psychodrama and Reform stunts and you'll see an emerging picture of a government getting on with the job.

Really quite informative to read ALL of Rayner's speech and then: See how it is edited (which bit each vested interest chooses), Spun (to fit whichever is the preferred narrative) and Reported (with commentary inviting me HOW to interpret her words). Conclusion? Too much of our MSM is inadequate.

What the hell are these Green Party people doing? Trying to oppose a 100% council home block being built. Chaining themselves to railings to stop it being built. And to top it all off, shouting at council tenants as they move in. Do any Green supporters want to defend this atrocious behaviour?

Nigel Farage does not give a toss about winning a 2nd election. If he gets into power he will Americanize the UK. Health Insurance will make HIM billions and the US billionaires TRILLIONS. He will destroy the UK and the lives of 99% of the people in it. And retire to the USA

Social media, including dire 'Nextdoor' and meta is available for all to use...one of my local councillors does short vids several times a week about what's being done locally in our ward on Nextdoor...and we have a little local magazine telling people what help's available. Front line action works.

A message from the PM. He is going now where, but lots to do to get the messages out there and to give people hope!

Starmer is still PM. This an opportunity to decide how the next three years play out. Introspective jostling: Labour MPs, union reps & members follow the Tory example of changing leaders without asking electorate? or A programme that consolidates and builds achievements so far and 1/2

Reform UK Treasurer and Donors Share London Address with Sanctioned Russian Oligarchs Reform UK’s Treasurer and three other donors have handed £1.55 million to Nigel Farage from Britain’s most expensive apartment block which is home to sanctioned Russian oligarchs and massive post-Soviet wealth

A nice little infographic of Labour Achievements.

Huge series of meetings that the UK PM has had today. 1. He joined leaders from Ukraine, France, Italy, Poland, Canada, Norway, Finland, NATO, the European Commission & the European Council for a meeting on Ukraine - regaining territory, the EU loan (which the UK is joining), drones and defence.

As the UK heads to the polls, real progress is being overshadowed by media fixation on Reform’s manufactured outrage.

Ain’t that the truth
