Does anyone remember how this worked out in the end?

I'm sorry but how can he say he has no idea if paracetamol causes autism and this not be the end of his poltical career? What is wrong with our media? Where are Labour?

Honest reporting at last

Retrospectively removing indefinite leave to remain would be immoral and economically damaging. It would tear families apart. Attacking it as ‘potentially illegal’ is completely beside the point. Argue with the (awful) idea. Don’t try ’well, actually you can’t do that’.

This is a real post from the actual labour party

Yes. Yes, they are.

Banksy satirised the state silencing those opposed to Israel’s genocide. The state then inadvertently made his artwork genius.

We were promised political stability, but this is like watching a horse play jenga

I don't remember seeing any calls for violent retribution after a Minnesota state senator was assassinated, and it would have been nice not to see any today.

Ambasador, when you said "friends (yum yum)" - about what were you yumyuming?

Reform are an eminently beatable prospect, but you know, as David Cameron once said: “lads, it’s the Labour Party“.

How did the ‘Island of Strangers’ speech impact Labour support? Negatively, especially among 2024 Labour voters.

Often delaying a resignation is bad politics. But by allowing so many to call for it - based on what is a relatively minor misdemeanor - Angela Rayner has potentially created big problems for them in the future. Some already have worse on their records.

Why did it take an American politician? Labour have 10 times the ammo and haven't fired a shot.

Politicians have been cowards on X and it is a disgrace.

not sure you’d be allowed to write this in North Korea, lads

Big bad wolf says there's no evidence that huffing and/or puffing impacts the structural integrity of porcine accomodation

All they needed to do was one normal person as their leader and the sky was the limit

think the reason why this feels both frightening and maddening, as opposed to merely the former, is that it doesn't even feel like we're in a losing battle, somehow we're engaged in a battle where most alleged good guys don't seem to care or notice what's going on, so yeah, it keeps getting worse

The thing is - I actually do quite like Britain, despite everything. Lots of the flag people seem not to like it at all. Do they have to leave?

Well, they do say three's a crowd.

The self-proclaimed 'silent majority' are - as ever - neither of those things

About once a year everyone demands action on bad dogs and it's reported everywhere. Then everyone forgets about dogs for a bit. Sometimes it's knife crime. It was video games. It's been Eminem, MMR, alcopops, meow meow, happy slapping, drill, laughing gas. The moral panic is an English tradition.

I've been a massive fan of Tyler Dibling since the beginning... of the speculation linking him with Everton

I'll 'physically intervene' with shoplifters the minute a police officer pops into my office and replies to some emails for me

Doing a wee in the shape of a cross outside the abandoned Debenhams as a demonstration of resistance and national pride

Drove past 2 zebra crossings adorned with smudged, lopsided interpretations of the flag of England. Pinkish red paint trailed along the road. Next to one of the crossings, a small, undisturbed pile of litter.

To anyone getting their A level results - I did pretty well with mine and my life has been a disaster ever since. Don't get ahead of yourselves.

Official "UK Prime Minister" Twitter account put out this dog-whistle tweet that was viewed by 5 million people. A few days later, police had to form a physical cordon around a Deliveroo rider who was being threatened by the mob protesting outside a hotel housing asylum seekers. Cause and effect?

It's weird scrolling on X for a while and seeing this vision of the country being on fire, and then leaving the house and seeing that everything is fine. Sadly, not everyone is leaving the house enough.

Looks like Tool are being restricted to less than half a song

Yeah so today I've been raving with a couple of biros in my hands while listening to the Pixies. Happy indiependance day

If Labour looks like it's only making announcements because lots of people voted Reform - doesn't it say to those people "voting Reform really worked for you - do it more"?

The voice of people on the receiving end of social care is once again completely missing

I'm going to run for election next year on a platform of making things up and promising to abolish them

Trying to stay calm but NOBODY KNOWS WHAT THE DIRECTION IS and THERE IS STILL NO EXPLANATION OF WHAT CHANGE REALLY MEANS

What if Morgan McSweeney is actually the worst political strategist of all time, but just got really lucky once with circumstances?

Labour’s “Farage is right, don’t vote for him” strategy, which was so successful on Thursday, looks set to continue.

Could you possibly consider scrutinising them?

Dont worry about Reform. I know that Led by Donkeys is about to project something so scathing, that every Reform voter in the UK will be crying and trying to swap their vote for Sir Keir. Trust the process. 💪

Morgan: hear me out guys, what if we do badly among both our old base AND our new base?

Nobody needs to hear this but I've been exercising and eating well and it actually works and that's sad

I wish this was funnier and that everything connected to it was less scary

Imagine how good Brexit will look compared to the all consuming floods though?

This is the great irony of Reform being different to the old parties and shaking things up. It's just the same people everyone hated wearing a different coloured rosette.

The obvious problem with ordering council officers to stop working from home - as Farage promises - is that there aren't nearly enough desks and offices. They were removed to save money. So the first decision as the UK DOGE will need to be spending millions on office space.

In previous years, if Labour had lost by 6 votes and the Greens had gained ground, I might have put some blame on Green Party voters. I absolutely can't do that now. Labour has lost the right to tell people voting Green to lend their votes. They lost this election from the left, not from the right.

Labour needs several million buckets of ice-cold water poured over their head and the nation's church bells ringing in unison as a very loud wake-up call. Hopefully, this is it. People voted for hope and change and vision not Reform lite and the same old Tory shite.

Labour is handing this country on a silver platter to Reform. People do not vote Labour because they hate immigrants and want Reform-lite. They vote Labour because they want it to make a positive difference to their lives.

This isn't even in the top 20 things he's done to damage Labour
