“We see from Canada and Australia that a strong, confident left, which leans into what we believe, rather than tilting the other way, can win and can win well.” I agree with Manchester mayor Andy Burnham. www.newstatesman.com/politics/pol...

@kerry10.bsky.social I love your profile! Angelou quite is pure class.

What @patrickhanrahan.bsky.social said! It's time the MSM do their job and scrutinise this copy and paste approach adopted by Reform across the UK. The USA we aren't! Stop trying to make us America's weaker little sibling!

This!

'Last month, this journey back to the future began.' Anything has got to be better than the current 2 an hour with at least one cancellation per hour that is Great Northern trains! www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

FT- “British industry exempted from Trump’s doubling of steel tariffs” Great… But the steel we use in Port Talbot and Trostre now comes from India on.ft.com/3ZPK1t0

"One month on since the election and Reform UK has not said how it will run [the] council"

I am with @junesim63.bsky.social! Keep us posted from your part of the UK June.

Yes, it is.

This is becoming quite a pattern.

Copying the USA will not lead to an improved standard of living for UK residents. My cousins in the US talk of plummeting living standards for all but the uber wealthy.

Reform's deputy leader in Leicestershire shared homophobic, sexist and Islamophobic content "Social media accounts linked to Joseph Boam reveal controversial posts about minority groups" www.leicester.news/reforms-depu...

And for some the residents of Kent that voted for Reform this is better than foreigners coming in and taking jobs, housing and all the other things they are blamed for.

Yet more hypocrisy from a Tory! This flip-flopping is why they should not be returned to power until the one-nationists among them bring the Party back to a semblance of decency.

Small Caribbean islands most with no army to speak of and many od whom make up the Commonwealth soldiers in the British Army. Yes, Mr Jenrick just like the children who don't need a mural, they are the enemy of Britain.

We know the answer to this. She's a hypocrite.

Chris Philip's memory loss!

I just got a Sky News alert saying “Britain has 'lost control' of its borders.” I couldn’t believe it at first, but I checked and the country is now shaped like a Ninja Turtle eating a pizza.

And the sky didn’t fall in … #Edinburgh www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/edinbur...

'Truss believes these nefarious forces authored her downfall. They taught her that gradual reform is impossible.' I don't know whether to feel disgusted by her or sad for her. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"I am sure Londoners will be as outraged as we are at the utter waste of public funds spent paying a senior officer to sit at home suspended and not work.” www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

'A coroner, Clare Bailey, recorded a conclusion of suicide which, she said, had been precipitated by the mistaken withdrawal of benefits by the DWP.' Unacceptable in 21st century UK. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

The democrat in me says this is totally unacceptable. The justice warrior in me says you get what you vote for! The only people I truly feel any empathy for are those who didn't vote Reform in Clacton.

His character led him to use his vehicle to hit innocent people and do serious damage to many. The MSM is despicable in its bias. They only empathise with victims of the perpetrator meets their political objectives.

"If he does what I'm suggesting, and actually sets out a path for how Reform is going to change..." Enter the kingmaker! If Farage does what Cummings suggests he will be PM he predicts. The unelected man who gave the UK Brexit now wants to give us Farage for PM. news.sky.com/story/nigel-...

I wish folk would listen to @drewdavies68.bsky.social nut I am not optimisitic.

People get the politicians they vote for. It's not like they can claim it was a surprise - the man had form.

A Tory peer takes from the public purse for 'erroneous' travel claims - no surprises there. Just wait until they tell us the benefit cheats are the immoral ones!

Now he speaks for mothers? Get out of here Farage!

'he said Pakistanis were “represented in every mainstream political party” and he welcomes the fact South Asian people like him “get to lead political parties and get to lead countries”.' At no point does Sarwar claim the Pakistani community should be prioritised. www.holyrood.com/news/view,ni...

'Look around: some of these self-styled free speech warriors are doing everything they can to ruin the lives of everyone who doesn’t 100% agree with them.'

'The third of young white men convinced they’ve been passed over for promotion because of their identity.' Along with the women losing out and the EDI hires being cancelled, it begs the question just who is getting all the opportunity then? www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Our rocket plant which we've nicknamed BoJo is continuing to sprout seeds everywhere and is taking over our garden with offshoots. We love rocket but it needs control, any useful tips would be gratefully received. Thanks!

👍😂

Sending love to the people of Liverpool tonight, as well as the team's fans.

Because they drank the Thatcher Kool Aid and believe in self, self, self rather than society.

'Hope Not Hate testifies, far-right parties like Britain First mask the extent of their racism & misogyny whilst out canvassing, saving it for internal chat behind closed doors. Despite Reform’s cosmetic efforts, it continues to attract candidates with extreme right, often repulsively toxic views.'

Well now, who would have thought it? The President spreading fake news!

@dd-rubin.bsky.social I love this 😆

But the playground taunt of “DEI hire” nonetheless feeds an age-old grievance, a lurking sense that someone has a job that could've been yours. It creates a climate where what was fast becoming unsayable in polite company can, once again, be said with confidence. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
