The SEND system isn’t working, not for students, their families, or their teachers.

It’s time to stop tinkering at the edges and start transforming our education system.

Labour promised change, instead we're seeing the same old chaos as under the Conservative Party.

No wonder the public are so fed up.

The PM should hold a confidence vote now so the government can focus on fixing the cost-of-living crisis, the NHS and the economy.

At this point the PM must surely see that McSweeney’s position is completely untenable.
EXC:

I can reveal the contents of a memo by Labour peer Lord Maurice Glasman in January 2025 warning Number 10 it was making a mistake to hire Mandelson - sent to Starmer’s chief of staff, Morgan McSweeney.

Months ago, @eddavey.libdems.org.uk asked the Prime Minister a simple question: why did he keep backing Mandelson despite his Epstein links, and what leverage might the Trump administration have over him?

Instead of answering, he waved it away.

We need a government totally focused on ending the cost-of-living crisis, fixing the NHS and care, and getting our economy growing again.

Time for Keir Starmer to say ‘put up or shut up’.

The British people can’t afford for this Labour soap opera to drag on for months.

Let’s have a confidence vote now to see whether Labour MPs have any confidence in the Prime Minister, so the government can move on one way or the other and focus on the change our country needs.

cannot imagine how it would feel, reading all those cheery friendly emails to Epstein from famous people after his conviction, if you are yourself a survivor of sexual abuse. On the case for moral leadership, not just an inquiry (tho hell yeah an inquiry too) www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Serious questions need to be asked about Mandelson, Andrew and what the PM knew when. The credibility of UK politics is on the line, says Guardian columnist Gaby Hinsliff

Mandelson should lose his peerage and he clearly has serious questions to answer.
It's time now for the Government to put forward legislation to strip Peter Mandelson of his peerage.

It's the very least they can do for the victims and survivors of his friend Jeffrey Epstein. If Mandelson has any shame left, he'll retire from the House of Lords today.

Trump avoided military service 5 times.

How dare he question their sacrifice. Farage and all the others still fawning over Trump should be ashamed.
