He nails it.

This is what patriotism looks like. Chris Kluwe, a former NFL player was arrested after speaking out against plans to install a MAGA plaque at a Southern California library. What a legend. The irony is that it’s unlikely a MAGA supporter has ever set foot in a library.

There's a rumour that Nigel Farage is keeping his head down because he's off to a Trump cheerleading conference over the weekend. I’m afraid I’m being proved right- Farage is far more interested in Trump's success than British security. He is a bootlicker and a plastic patriot.

The media are crying out for a serving politician to decry Trump, so here goes: he’s a lying, corrupt, incompetent criminal who is a useful idiot to Putin. Together they are literally destroying the fabric of western democracy and European security. Is any MP prepared to agree?

Today is the 20th anniversary of the Hunting Act coming into force, writes Jacqui Burgoyne. But it’s not working. ‘Hunt sabs’ allege loopholes in the law allow cruel hunting to persist. Here’s how they sabotage illegal hunts ⤵️

The coward Trump surrendering on his knees before Putin

Denying refugees citizenship simply on the grounds that they arrived here “illegally” on small boats *when there are no legal routes* for most to use takes cynicism to new heights. If Govt thinks such performative cruelty will see off Reform, they’re wrong - it’s more likely to strengthen it

UK Petition. Please sign. Need 100,000 signatures for a parliamentary debate. Currently at 62,000. Thanks Ban driven grouse shooting. It’s all about the money and death and fuck all about managing land for nature (which is what they’ll have you believe) petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

ok, so basically I'm trying to make this post go viral.

It has been a slower week for this, but it's only Wednesday. Please could my connections share this far and wide. Even GBNews put up an article that polling is higher for rejoin than staying out now - although they deleted it... petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

Vote Count Binface and I will take over Turnberry and the Trump International Golf Course in Aberdeen, and turn them from a hellhole into a sanctuary for asylum seekers from across the world.

I got a bill from the phone company that got marked as spam and I actually had to go to my spam folder and give it a thumbs-up so I could pay the bill. FML

Not a single Reform MP has bothered to turn up to today's House of Commons debate on tackling violence against women and girls

Just like much of the furore this week, here is an example of a law passed 4 years ago and the Tories did nothing with it. Within months of us being in power we delivered the scheme because we are about actual actions and real outcomes. They talked we walked. www.burytimes.co.uk/news/2484314...

Just in from mammoth interview session to two bits of news. One that a DV perp got locked up because of something I did and that a vulnerable constituent had a a massive wrongful debt written off after our intervention. This is why I came to politics, this is why I'll just keep cracking on.

I don't understand the political timidity when it comes to regulating social media. These are companies that have decimated the free press, fuelled race riots on our streets, undermined the mental health of our children, paid little tax and are now undermining liberal democracy itself.

The Chair of the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse says that a new inquiry would only delay action. Instead of further kicking the can down the road, this government is right to implement all IICSA recommendations. I paid tribute to survivors and asked for a timeline.

Despite all of the challenges - legal and meteorological - we did it! After 40 years of damaging deregulation, Greater Manchester has this morning successfully retaken control of the whole its bus network. 🙌🏻

I’m shocked that Sadiq Khan has been rewarded for failure with a knighthood following London mayoral election victories against Zac (now Lord) Goldsmith and Shaun (now Lord) Bailey.

Chairman of M&S Archie Norman tells me on Times Radio that Brexit means they've had to hire a warehouse just to store the paperwork needed to export to the Republic of Ireland….

After 3 years of Berlingo ownership I've finally worked out how to fit a usable drinks holder.

WOW. We’ve hit 25,000 signatures. If we hit 100k, then the government will consider this for a debate in parliament. Your voice matters! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...
