The media aren’t that interested in reporting facts. More interested in undermining the government at every opportunity.

The Chancellor even pointed out in her speech that despite growth being projected to be lower this year, the OBR is predicting larger growth in every future year than they predicted in the autumn budget. Suggests that this year's drop is just a delay in growth, rather than a reduction.

Of course. The attack line was always "Labour can't govern, they can't make the tough decisions". As soon as they do it's knives out from all angles.

Of course it is, we are hearing "you cannot blame this on Tories" after 9 months in government and 14 years of chronic under investment. Yet the Tories dined out on "Labour crashed the economy" for a decade, utterly pillaging the public purse and given a wide berth by the media, when it was a lie

It just doesn’t feed into the MSM narrative does it? 😠 I admit to being disappointed with some of Labour’s policies but honestly the right wing bias by the UK media is glaring obvious given their muted tones for the past 14yrs! 😳

ABC News: "An unthinkable breach of national security." CBS News: "An unthinkable breach of national security." MSNBC: "An unthinkable breach of national security." CNN: "An unthinkable breach of national security." Fox News: "We've all texted the wrong person before."

“I did not come into politics to inflict this on the most vulnerable people in our society, and I cannot vote for changes which will have this impact” Connor Naismith Labour MP 👏

The US added only 151,000 jobs in February, lower than the forecast 170,000 jobs, while the unemployment rate rose to 4.1%. Yet again, a Republican president is blowing the strong economy he inherited from a Democrat.

Reform voted against the Employment Rights Bill

I suspect that this is likely to be the case for any government that isn’t in bed with the predominantly right-wing MSM in this country. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"I have a lot of support and a lot of safety around me, so no, I'm not feeling personally at risk" is NOT the line an ordained priest should have to use in a civilised society. time.com/7209222/bish...

I defend Labour a lot. I think they are doing a good job overall in the face of adversity. But even I cannot find a positive in this continued rejection of joining the SM or CU or anything that is offered by Europe. I want them to get this sorted. ASAP.

"Fossil fuels are losing their grip on EU energy. At the start of the European Green Deal in 2019, few thought the EU’s energy transition could be where it is today; wind and solar are pushing coal to the margins and forcing gas into structural decline" Big new @ember-energy.org report on EU energy

The thing is, I feel like if someone truly, accidentally, & unintentionally made a n*zi salute on a national stage, they would be appropriately horrified by it and apologize. And when they don’t ….. it says everything.

SATURDAY 29th MARCH 2025 NRM's annual "Day For Rejoin" is about getting Rejoiners all around the country (and beyond) together in their local areas to have fun, network and spread the word about the Rejoin campaign Find a local group 👇 marchforrejoin.co.uk/dfr25

What we are witnessing is the normalisation of extremism. If we allow the right to pretend that the German AFD is just another conservative party... or that Donald Trump is just another president... or that Elon Musk was just getting carried away with that salute are on a distinctly dangerous path.

absolutely brutal

HMRC denies running a "deliberately poor" phone service to push taxpayers to seek help online instead. 44,000 customers cut off without warning after being on hold for 70 minutes last yr, even worse now. So, wrong taxes paid, little people prosecuted and fined. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Really quite extraordinary to see demands for Starmer's resignation, in response to his being open about terrible mistakes that happened between 2017-2024, from the very politicians who were in charge during that time - sometimes at the depts that messed up. ~AA www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/01...

Brilliant from John Crace. Clearly exposes the hypocrisy of Farage and his ilk, while providing a balanced view of the government response. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Personally, I didn't need a salute to think Musk was a nazi.

This was not an accident or "blunder". Anyone who didn't see this coming hasn't been paying attention.

Reform’s resigning councillors show that all is not well in Farage’s ranks...

I used to scratch my head as to how they all allowed the world to go to hell in a handbasket in the 1930s and why not enough was done to prevent it. We all know now.

It's been quite something to watch supposedly 'patriotic' British newspapers actively cheerleading on a foreign administration that is openly working against our interests.

Sigh. We tried to warn them.

Remember all these headlines describing a brief rise in government borrowing costs as being "market mayhem", followed by a week of demands for Rachel Reeves to quit? Well one week later and it turns out UK gilts are now outperforming every other G7 country this year, aside from the US
