Turns out the arson attacks on Starmer were arranged by Russia. Guess which 'patriot' helped spread the Russian misinformation and conspiracy bollocks around the attacks.

⁉️Woman from Boston (Brexit area): “I don't think enough people here were educated on what it meant. It was going around social media that migrants are taking our jobs. “They weren’t. They absolutely weren't taking your jobs, 'cause you weren't doing them jobs. But again, I don't think enough people were educated in this area as to what Brexit would mean to them. They just see it "Oh, I've read a TikTok. I've seen it on Facebook." Interviewer: How did you vote yourself, if you don't mind me asking? “I voted for it. Really? 'Cause I was lied to. They promised we would better police who was coming in. Since Brexit, it's gone completely worse!” And would you vote reform? I'd vote Restore, 'cause I like Rupert Lowe. He quotes facts, he quotes figures. Yeah. Interviewer: Would you vote Reform? Her: “I’d vote Restore… I like Rupert Lowe. He quotes facts and figures.” 😝 So she admits Brexit made things worse on the very issue she cared about… and now is lured to vote for more of the same chaos and xenophobia. This is why we need another referendum to settle Brexit.

Just a reminder that Helen and the Conservative Party is currently being investigated by the UK statistics watchdog for making misleading claims about welfare and social security spending. 🙂 disabilitynewsservice.com/uk…
I’ve launched a review of the sickness benefits system. It’s broken. Last year we set out £23bn welfare savings including stopping benefits to foreigners & for milder mental health. This review will look at the whole system and set out our plan to fix it.

Cars and properties linked to Keir Starmer says Chakrabarti in the intro. Er, one car he used to own, one flat he used to rent and one house he owns, rented out to his sister-in-law. And Myrie talks about disinformation ahead of the news. Shut @BBCNews down. #bbcnews

Buried in the BBC writeup of the Russian-sponsored arson attack on Keir Starmer's home is the following nugget. The attackers' handler, Evgeny Lyukshin, the son of a Russian diplomat, studied at Moscow State University's diplomatic academy, which has a Rybar-run media school. Ryber is a sanctioned organization which seeks "to sow discord, promote social division, stoke partisan and racial discord, and encourage hate and violence," according to the U.S. government. Tutors at the media school's program on "information warfare" include SVR illegal Colonel Andrey Berzukov, or "Donald Heathfield," as he was known in Cambridge, Massachusetts, before the FBI arrested him as part of Operation Ghost Stories. Another tutor is Sergey Nalobin, formerly the first secretary in the political section of the Russian Embassy in the UK, but so much more than that, too. Nalobin's father's was a general in the KGB who then went on to serve as Alexander Litvinenko's boss in the economic crimes division of the FSB. Nalobin's brother was also FSB. So, well... yeah. When he was stationed in London, Nalobin (seen at right with Boris Johnson) helped found a pro-Russian front group called Conservative Friends of Russia, to which @lukeharding1968 and I devoted some attention fifteen years ago. Sir Malcolm Rifkind was the honorary president at one point before he cottoned onto what he'd signed up for and quit. Nalobin's diplomatic credentials expired and he was subsequently posted to Tallinn. (My informed guess is the Estonians let him in to keep an eye on him.) Looks like Sergey's time in the West wasn't wasted, however. He's now helping to instruct a bright young generation of Russian operatives how to foment race war and remotely recruit gig saboteurs from an elite institution of higher learning in Moscow. A whole gaggle of Tories can say they knew him when... bbc.com/news/articles/c8r2l3…

Good discussion with Prime Minister @Keir_Starmer. Close EU–UK cooperation is essential for our shared European security, resilience, and prosperity. We are working closely together to make our upcoming second Summit in Brussels on 22 July a success.

'We have far more in common than that which divides us.' 10 years on the message of my dear friend Jo Cox remains as important as ever. The world is a fairer, kinder place because of her legacy.

Lee Anderson posted an AI-generated image today claiming the Jimmy Savile sign photo from the Makerfield campaign was fake. I used Grok. It took ten seconds. Those are Reform UK campaign materials. The sign was real. Stephen Pownall, the man in the original photo, confirmed it was real. Two sitting Reform councillors, Gemma Painter and Lilian Rogers, were photographed at the same canvassing session. Lee Anderson is a sitting MP. He didn't question the image. He didn't seek comment. He published a fabricated picture to discredit evidence of his own party's conduct the day before a by-election. That is not a mistake. That is a choice.

Farage @Nigel_Farage has thinner skin than graphene and folds quicker than a house of cards when he is subjected to scrutiny. He offers 'legitimacy' to the voices and actions of the bigots, racists and xenophobes and delivers nothing but hatred and division.

Michelle Obama: “Let’s be very clear. Strong men don’t need to put down women to make themselves feel powerful.” The same goes for leadership, you lead by example. Being an asshole to someone only makes them hate you.

Andy Burnham's Leadership Election Manifesto 1) I want to spend loads of money. 2) I stand by the fiscal rules. Mind you, I haven't got a clue what they are, but it sounds good when I say it. 3) Yeah, I was involved in a pretty big scandal, and after losing the leadership election twice, I disappeared for a bit. Never mind, apparently that's all forgotten now because the media say it's alright. 4) Because I'm from Manchester, I've been Mayor, and I've spent years out of frontline politics, I can obviously do Keir's job better than Keir. 5) I've got no policies whatsoever, but I can talk for hours and hours about absolutely anything. Oh Angela love me. So please, please, please elect me and take Labour back to the days of spending money we haven't got. I'm also told there's a magic money tree somewhere that I can keep borrowing from, so that'll sort itself out. The media keep telling me everybody loves me, so it must be true. Now crown me King Andy and let's get on with it.
The “return of the state” is both the most compelling case for Andy Burnham and the reason journalists still struggle to understand “Burnhamism”. New Labour’s aversion to nationalisation is now as out of date as Old Labour was in the 1990s. The records of both Margaret Thatcher and Tony Blair show the case for having a clear ideology, and the first two years of this Labour government have tested to destruction the idea that having no guiding political philosophy benefits a government. An activist state with the “Green transition” at its heart, with a commitment to municipal enterprise and council-house building, one that shapes the economy rather than blowing in the wind and earns “royalties” from its investments and the IP it supports, is a break with past decades. And so it should be – Thatcher and Blair were the bookends of the long late seventies. This is the second quarter of the 21st century – we need to make it new. It’s time for a real change. A rejection of the glum politics of “like it or lump it – we’re taking away your Winter Fuel Payment, because!” Time to try a leader who enjoys their job, makes a persuasive case for changes and works to create a coalition to support his actions. The 2029 general election will be as definitional for the country as 1979. The end of neoliberal governance opens a new era – for progressives, one that is resolutely upbeat and optimistic. @Johnmcternan: Labour needs a leader who actually enjoys the job newstatesman.com/politics/uk…

Leadership Is What You Do When Nobody Is Watching While others spend their days plotting leadership contests, Keir Starmer spends his days leading. Meeting allies.
Supporting Ukraine.
Strengthening Europe's security.
Protecting Britain's interests. One conversation is about ambition. The other is about responsibility. The country can tell the difference. #Labour #KeirStarmer #PoliticsUK
I met with Prime Minister @Keir_Starmer. The United Kingdom has taken new important decisions in support of Ukraine and introduced new sanctions steps against Russia’s shadow fleet. Thank you! All of this works towards peace. I informed Keir about the consequences of the recent Russian strikes. We discussed the possible participation of the United Kingdom in the restoration of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, the implementation of the agreements reached during today’s G7–Ukraine meeting, potential areas for further pressure on Russia, and steps to strengthen Ukraine’s air defense. Thank you, Keir Starmer, for your unwavering support for our people.
