Two massive announcements this week for Labour with direct impact on every one of us. The Cancer Care Plan and the Pride of Place levelling up. Our Government busy making our Country better and our life chances better than ever after a cancer diagnosis. Well done to
Our PM.

Boris Johnson’s normalisation of his abuse of power, fully supported by cabinet goons wheeled out everyday on TV defending him, is how Kier Starmer is able to remain in office. The public, politicians, need to get back to decency in public life. If you make a grave error, you fall on your sword.

Zia Yusef, history lesson for you. Immigration went up BECAUSE of Brexit.

Do not fall for Reform lies.

The irony of Zia Yusef talking about Starmer’s vetting policies is off the scale. What a total vomit inducing hypocrite. What a fraud, just like Reform.

Anyone thinking of voting for Reform just let this picture burn your eyeballs. Epstein- a Russian asset, Farage a Putin apologist, a traitor. Farage doesn’t give a toss about the working class. All he cares about is his billionaire mates. Yet he denies ever meeting Epstein. BS. They were mates.
February 5, 2026 at 10:35 AM
The fact that the Epstein files have ended the career of one senior politician and a senior Royal, suggests that the police launching a far reaching criminal investigation into Epstein, Andrew, Mandleson, Brexit and treasonous behaviour by others here in the UK is long overdue.

The total _ollocks being spoken on @lbc.co.uk right now re Starmer and the Labour Party pertaining to Mandleson is just staggering. Where was the faux outrage about Johnson partying with the KGB in Italy having escaped his own security people. LBC - grow up.

The irony of Badenoch calling out Starmer over ethics and national security is off the scale. Shall we talk about her support for Johnson meeting KGB people behind closed doors at a party in Italy seems to be lost on her.

Badenoch - go do one.

Nigel Farage is going to "save pubs" by cutting 5p off the price of a pint of beer...

The £3 billion cost will be funded by reinstating the two-child benefit limit.

This might be the worst policy anyone has ever come up with.

Nigel Farage announces plans to slash vital benefit to fund 5p cheaper pints
Nigel Farage's party had promised to back scrapping the two-child benefit limit, but now Reform intends to funnel the support to the most vulnerable into slashing prices in pubs

I’ve had a Fitbit for over 10yrs. Don’t know how, but I’ve just learnt they have been taken over by Google who want me to transfer over all of my health data that the watch has gathered. Google can go do one. I have a crack in the glass of my Fitbit. I won’t be replacing it with another Fitbit.

What’s taken place in the precious metals markets today, I believe, is pure market manipulation - ie fraud. Fraud departments at both the UK #MetPolice and #NYPD should investigate the #LBMA and #Comex because what happened today absolutely stinks of corruption.

Another useless, way under qualified nomination. Trump is useless.
FT Alphaville on Kevin Warsh

"Many investors & economists ... are unimpressed by his candidacy. They say the reality is that he is a lightweight ... who has desperately tried to reinvent himself as a dovish Trump devotee to win a job that on pure merit he probably shouldn’t be anywhere near"
At least it isn’t Judy Shelton, David Zervos or Bill Pulte. www.ft.com/content/07e9...

This is absolutely shocking. Something has to be done about this appalling situation in which so many now find themselves. The government needs to act

The lengths being taken to defy a court order to release the #EpsteinFiles is off the scale.

Think about it for a moment, then think about this,

'How bad are they'? Worse than anyone can imagine.

David Lammy makes it clear waiting lists are down over 300,000, 5.2M extra appointments, 3,000 more GP’s & ambulance response times down.

He attacks Reform for wanting to privatise our NHS & makes it clear Labour will never let it happen!

I struggle to believe that Congress, his own Republican Party, the American public are allowing this to take place in broad daylight. My God how far has America fallen. The world needs to ostracise Trump and America. The fact that no-one is doing anything is beyond belief. 7 Dems voted to fund ICE.
Trump sold the oil from a seized Venezuelan tanker for $500,000,000.. Where is the money? He deposited it in a bank in Qatar where Congress can't get to it.
He stole the oil from Venezuela, but he stole the money from America.
Why has Congress not impeached and imprisoned him for his crimes?
