I have never witnessed the utterly baboonish levels of jeering Reeves endures in the Commons - and this level of disrespect started on day one, so it is nothing to do with policies, credentials, or ability and everything to do with her being a woman.

Another way to look at this is that SBU agents had to spend 18 months doing insanely dangerous Mission Impossible behind enemy lines tradecraft because Western governments won't authorise them using long-range missiles for fear of hurting Vlad's feelings.

🔴 NEW 🔴 Nigel Farage’s “economically illiterate” clean energy crackdown would cost 60,000 jobs, knock £92 billion off the economy, and raise bills.

Going to keep saying it - the Farage effect is largely an illusion. Many, many more people loathe him than like him.

I’m old fashioned enough to think the BBC should be leading on what the deal is and what it means. Rather than the political claims from both sides.

There's no placating the Brexiters, no reasoning with them, no basic comprehension or adulthood. You can't debate papers behaving like the Sun or the Mail this morning. There's nothing to debate with. They view all trading relations with Europe as humiliation.

Brexit was a referendum on whether the UK should leave the European Union. The UK has left the European Union. Referendum fulfilled. If the people bleating about "Brexit Betrayal" wanted the Referendum to enshrine their pet policy preferences, they should have included them in the question.

The worst element of what happened this week isn't even about immigration specifically. It's that Starmer surrendered against populism.

After due consideration, having weighed up the relevant evidence, assessed the balance of arguments and gamed the likely implications, I have reached the conclusion that Keir Starmer can fuck off from a great height.

Incredibly depressing day. I've spent my entire life being told by British governments how dreadful immigration is. New Labour did it. The Coalition. The Brexiters. Now Starmer. All of them accusing the ones who came before them of failing to clamp down. The same old vacant mean-spirited bollocks.

The government borrowed £151 billion last financial year. Which was £14.6 billion more than the OBR estimate last month. And yet their forecasts for five years time are being used as the entire basis for public policy decision making.

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

He’s tanking the economy, destroying our standing in the world, depriving women and LGBTQ communities of their fundamental rights, attacking the environment, disappearing legal immigrants, gutting Veteran’s benefits and Social Security. And he’s making you pay for his golf trips while he’s at it.

On the subject of people traveling to the US right about now: Fuck, if I were from another country and I didn't need to come, I sure as hell wouldn't, the current administration has made it clear traveling here isn't safe, and why not take them at their word, there's a whole world to visit

His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.
