Cue the standard SNP response - a commission to investigate which will take years and deliver a bullshit set of responses. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Breaking news: media obsessed with fantasy leadership election that is many weeks, if not months away, and may not actually happen at all. New media needed.

Seriously?

It’s the media, stupid www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Is the noose tightening?

Has Tollcross been turned into a charnel house yet?

At a time when international politics is at least as important as domestic, neither Streeting nor Burnham can hold a candle to Starmer.

Which Russian authoritarian has always wanted to weaken the UK and EU. The same Russian authoritarian also uses Tether which Harborne has interests in to launder money to pay for things like the Ukraine war.

A woman who argued her case so poorly that her closing argument was, “It’s just not fair.” Scotland's top law officer Dorothy Bain to step down www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This is the cost of arseholes like Streeting and all the other wobbly kneed Labour weaklings fucking around when the country needs it least. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

😳Reform took votes from the SNP too. Read 👇 substack.com/@deanmthomso...

In the great Faragian clutching at straws scam, this is right up there with my girlfriend with no money bought it.

Now, this is interesting, especially if it was introduced across all the parliaments as pure form PR - 1 voter, one vote, no screwy addons or weird formulas.

They walk among us and now apparently they also have political power. The UK’s descent into Idiocracy is almost complete with Reform, the SNP, Greens and Plaid Cymru, with an honourable mention going to the LibDems.

Breaking news: Labour MPs voluntarily screw chances of re-election with childish identity politics stunt.

Translation: @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social the weasel leaves and no one gives a shit. You won’t get my vote you traitorous little shit.

Hopefully Harborne will be next

NHS waiting lists are continuing to fall under Labour Down over half a million since Labour won the general election, the lowest for three & a half years In March 2026, they fell to 7.11m, down 515,000 from July 2024 Jan to March 2026, a drop of 312,000, the largest year-on-year drop for 16 years

Is that rant from Trump real?

The rabid glee of the political pundits in the media, at the thought of a Labour leadership challenge tells you exactly why the only beneficiaries would be the media. This is why @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social and any other MP thinking about is bloody stupid If they fall into the media trap.

TV’s Trevor Philips describing Keir Starmer as smug and holier than thou is the height of irony.

This is the most no brain decision

Chances of this preening little fool being elected leader = very slim odds

@rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social A wise MP would know that the media is the shit storm, not the PM. A wise MP would back the PM and push for media regulation to stop the media governing the country by manufactured crisis, which it is. Are you a wise MP Mr Streeting?

This happens

Danny Kruger = disconnected smug old Etonian tosser in need of a collision with reality.

Translation. Seattle does not like bosses that profiteer at the expense of their workers and the state. Be more like Seattle everyone.

Stunning

@samcoatessky.bsky.social have you apologised for lying to camera today about PR shots? Or are you above apologies, unlike the PM?

@vicderbyshire.bsky.social over to you…

Oh dear, what a shame. AI fucks up.

This is true. Whenever a politician takes credit for something they are proud of, when it fails they can never be allowed to blame someone else. See SNP and the Ferries scandal for evidence of poor attempts at deflection.

Funniest thing I've seen all day and the most cat thing ever

This! 👇 This is the kind of journalism we need in the UK, not political muck raking for ratings. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

As the media becomes less trustworthy and more desperate for clicks to survive, this is the time the BBC should be rising above it to become the single most trusted provider of factual news and allow the rest to eat each other. So get rid of idiots like Mason, Kuenssberg et al and win back trust.

This is entirely true and I suspect if someone had been dumb enough to give him £5 million, Polanski would have headed for the hills.

Prediction. If Starmer goes, the media will have won and there will be 2 more Labour leaders before the next GE, at which point the UK will be ungovernable without deep and brutal media regulation so that elected govts and leaders can actually do the job they are elected to.

The media always lies! Without a constant flow of crises to generate clicks and sales, the media dies, so it has to manufacture and exaggerate every inkling of an issue into a full blown crisis. The media is broken and the cure is too both stop clicking and stop engaging.

Its not £5million but it still shows that Polanski is a grifter. Polanski apologises over houseboat council tax www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

👇This is the govt the UK has needed since 2010

This 👇

@catherinewestmp.bsky.social instead of falling into the media’s trap to have another PM crisis, why not use your brain and start campaigning for media reform so govts can actually function? Assuming, of course, you have been paying attention since Brexit.

The Scottish Greens now saying they will not respect Reform. Dumb as fuck. Reform is not a party to admire, but disrespecting one of the larger voter groups merely proves the Greens are a party of spoiled little children.

The SNP saying they will not invite Reform to the Butt House summit is beyond stupid. Ignoring the party that got a significant share of the vote will simply strengthen Reform’s popularity and also prove the SNP claim about being a govt for all Scots is a lie.

I reckon the media obsession with Starmer is because he’s quietly competent, but not a flashy fool like BoJo, or a deranged loon like Truss. Quiet competence is not great for media scandals or headlines.

Listening to moronic political pundits claiming that Starmer‘s govt is light on policy is further proof that the media is the enemy of democracy in the UK.

@catherinewestmp.bsky.social I hope you have the whip removed for falling into the media’s trap around Starmer. You are an idiot and not fit to represent my party!

Journalists should be required to name said ‘sources’ or simply be branded liars, gossips and bullshitters

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Anyone believe this?

🧵 Despite the bad news that the separatist parties have a parliamentary majority for 5 years, there is good news. They have never managed to get close to a majority of either votes cast or the electorate. Mandate to govern but not even close to a mandate to demand a referendum. 1
