Over many decades, poll after poll have shown the British people are moderates. What's happened is, by staying calm, Labour is hoovering up all the centrists the Tories have left behind them. Maybe we can then demonstrate the power of more progressive policies, slowly

The world over it's as clear as day, Covid is NOT a type of flu and is far more dangerous

In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents. It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years. There should be no profit in education or healthcare.

This is so childish but I bloody love it.

Fcuks sake @didoharding @MichelleMone etc etc etc people died!

BREAKING: In a shocking statement, Donald Trump just said that he won’t tax the rich. Trump is making it abundantly clear that he plans on cutting taxes for the top 1% and forcing middle-class Americans to bear the costs. Retweet so all Americans see this.

Say what you like about strong trade unions backed up by strong employment rights. But nobody in a full-time job needed to use a food bank in the 1970s.

Then Jesus said unto the sick, “you better have insurance.” Then Jesus said unto the stranger, “are you here legally?” Then Jesus said unto the hungry, “my taxes better not be paying for these loaves and fishes.” Then Jesus said unto the poor, “this is your own fault.”

Victoria Derbyshire to Tory MP Helen Whately: “A few years ago Kemi Badenoch admitted hacking into Harriet Harman’s website a decade previously. What does that say, in your view, about her judgment?” *car crash ensues* #newsnight

This is one of the key and repellent things about Trump: he's a lifelong Nazi-style eugenicist. It's not an exaggeration to put it that way— he's brought up genes and "blood" for DECADES, from early in his career to his time on The Apprentice... He also thinks rich people deserve to be rich bc they're genetically pre-disposed to be successful, with "strong lines," like racehorses

"Not only have they abandoned us but the whole Western media was complicit, and is still complicit, about the genocide... It didn't end. It didn't stop. It's still ongoing." Powerful words from Gaza journalist @hind_gaza to me. Full interview with her: zeteo.com/p/the-whole-wester…

Imagine the trauma of being trapped in refugee camps all your life. Imagine being attacked by settlers & Isr@eli army, beaten, shot, your home bulldozed, your land stolen. Imagine your hospitals, medical staff, children being targeted and slaughtered. Isr@el is a brutal dictator

A poll on Boris Johnson. Like - He's a lying scumbag. RT - He should be in jail.

There seems to be significant faux outrage from Tory leadership candidates Cleverly and Tugendhat about the Starmer government’s transfer of the Chagos islands to Mauritius. Official sources tell me the transfer would have happened in materially the same way at roughly the same time if Sunak had somehow won the election. The point is that the transfer was being negotiated on the recent Tory government’s watch - including by Cleverly as foreign secretary and then by Cameron - and the deadline was in effect set by Washington. I am told that President Biden wanted the deal done before the 5 November presidential election. Biden wanted certainty about the future of the US military base on the Chagossian island of Diego Garcia, just in case Donald Trump were to win the election. For confirmation that the deal was clinched on a timetable and in a style to suit the US administration, see Biden’s statement that “it is a clear demonstration that through diplomacy and partnership, countries can overcome longstanding historical challenges to reach peaceful and mutually beneficial outcomes”. Biden pointed out that the agreement between the UK and Mauritius meant the US had secured “the effective operation of the joint [military] facility on Diego Garcia into the next century.” It is therefore curious Tugendhat should describe the transfer as “leaving our allies” exposed when the UK’s most important ally, America, has welcomed it. And Cleverly’s denigration of Starmer as “weak, weak, weak” for formalising it seems eccentric when the negotiations with Mauritius were in full swing when he was in the cabinet. As for Liz Truss’s assertion that Boris Johnson is to blame, I am told that Johnson was the last PM to wholly oppose giving up sovereignty over Chagos, and that the talks did not start properly till she was PM. If anyone in the Tory party wants to know the nitty gritty of all this, possibly they could ask for an introduction from the former minister Lord Frost - because his spouse Harriet Matthews has been the lead official negotiator for the foreign office on the Chagos treaty with Mauritius.

Johnson’s now admitted in his book and on #ITV that the £350m a week for the NHS figure was a lie. He was Foreign Sec at the time. He lied. He f*cked the country to win an argument. He should be prosecuted. #JohnsonIsALyingBastard

As the British media chase their tails over frocks, reading glasses and footie tickets, I have a question: How many years does does it take to arrest, prosecute and imprison two multi-million pound Tory fraudsters?
