My Daily Mail reading, life-long Tory-voting, ethical, tolerant and deeply compassionate mum, who is not racist will most likely vote Reform. Take note @teamlabouruk.bsky.social. Don’t alienate your base to appease the unappeasable.

Labour hold West of England mayoralty on 25% of the vote. Aaron Banks was 6k votes away from having actual power. If that doesn't scare Labour into reverting back to the original voting system for mayors nothing will.

Hi Labour, rather than learning all the wrong lessons from this election defeat - what about taking some people out of poverty and improving some lives?

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring all removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

“Take back control of our laws” so American fascists can decide them for us… I don’t think so. Just imagine if the EU demanded this of us. Intolerable for it to even be on the table. Intolerable to be at this table at all, frankly. Another Brexit humiliation. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

After a Saturday night at A&E with a child and a broken wrist, it occurred to me to consider how much the same treatment would cost in the US. A quick Google says circa $6000 without insurance: workrightnw.com/the-cost-of-injury-the-wrist/

So, Le Pen gets banned from running for election because she’s found guilty of embezzlement and her far-right fanclub starts huffing and puffing about whether this is democratic. Err. Yes. If you’re found guilty of corruption, you’re unfit for public office. It doesn’t matter how ‘popular’ you are.

So on brand for The Times to help whip up the victimhood of the right, rather than calling it what it is… Criminal abuse of power. A corrupt politician being found guilty in a court of law. Judges did their job. Le Pen muzzled herself. She is responsible for her own demise. Democracy is safer today.

The thing about all these pieces complaining about Marine Le Pen's conviction is that not a single one of them bothers to explain why someone found guilty of embezzling millions of Euros from public funds should be allowed to get away with it

Republicans pretend to want “small government,” but the second they get power, they crown a self-proclaimed king and let him rule unchecked.

It might not seem like the major issue, but the historical illiteracy of an American administration complaining that freeloading Europeans haven't done enough to militarily control the Suez Canal is quite the thing, eh?

I don't often ask people to write to their MPs. But I think they might listen to you on this, as it's so jaw-droppingly awful, and they're almost certainly unaware of it. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... Please also write to the Environment Secretary: [email protected] Thanks.
