If Reform win the next election, Labour have already put in place a solid framework for them to execute their most wild and dystopian fantasies about ICE-style enforcement, scrapping legal protections prohibiting torture and imposing indefinite detention without trial.
I hope those who condemn Reform for their comments about "mass deportations" but continue to support Labour's inhumane treatment of migrants are paying attention.
Labour's policies are all about deportation and framing migrants as criminals. It only leads one way

I just signed a petition calling for an urgent investigation into Peter Mandelson's dealings with Palantir. Did he use his position as UK Ambassador to benefit the US spy tech firm? Sign now: www.foxglove.org.uk/campaigns/ma...

Can someone please explain the received cliche that he’s a“ decent man“ given the island of strangers speech, the comment that it was fine to cut off water & electricity to Gaza, the decision to target OAPs on £13k and the disabled over the richest, the locking up of old people for protest etc ?

Pity it took his leadership being threatened to activate this ‘conscience’ of his. Didn’t see much sign of it when it was Palestinians being murdered, immigrants being scapegoated, trans people being hounded, tyrants being appeased or principles being abandoned wholesale.

When talking about righteous anger, worth remembering that the Labour Party has been supporting a genocide in the Middle East for more than two years.

Lots of people assume Bezos made mistakes or doesn't know how to run a newspaper. Seems more likely he has totally different motivations. Trump wants the Post to stop being a viable independent news organization. So, for the financial success of his business empire, Bezos needs the Post to do that.

This investigation paints a very bleak picture as to the prospects of ever getting the European Union, the largest trading bloc with Israel, to enforce the bare minimum obligations it has under international law.
An investigation by a German outlet has found that in German supermarkets, wines from illegal settlements in the illegally occupied West Bank are labelled as "from Israel".

This violates both EU regulations and the International Court of Justice's advisory ruling on the occupation of the oPT.

Anas Sarwar says today of Peter Mandelson: “I'm utterly disgusted and furious about the entire situation … He never should have been the ambassador to the US.”

For context, here’s Sarwar in April 2025 love-bombing his ‘old friend’.

They think we are stupid.

He is an amoral opportunistic chancer.

Labour got 11% in Caerphilly. Down from 46%. It is likely a similar drop will happen in Gorton and Denton.

People dont want Labour, and Anti-Reform voters are looking elsewhere. SNP or Plaid or Green or in some cases LibDems.

Labour won't even win 50 seats at the GE.

The election denial movement relies on propaganda and urging their believers into action based on genuine belief that they are in the right.
People saying "there aren't enough ICE agents" are kinda missing the point. The point is to get people to distrust the results of the election.

@jeremycorbyn.bsky.social : "I can just confirm to the House, under my leadership [of Labour] Mandelson had no role, no influence & no part to play"

It was precisely because Corbyn didn't represent the interests of the ruling class (like Mandelson did), that his leadership had to be destroyed

Surely this scandal pales in comparison to brave whistleblowers and the British press uniting to expose the Labour Party as a sinister nexus of psychopathic thugs operating a dark conspiracy to protect their cronies spreading Hitlerian racial hatred? You would think, right
