Their manifesto made it clear there would be radical changes to reduce boats and change asylum. We need to stop people risking their lives and enriching criminals. We need safe routes. This is a good move and scuppers Reforms chances to rule

Worth reading from the Government not our appalling media. Asylum and returns policy
The Home Secretary gave an oral statement to the House of Commons on 17 November to set out significant reforms to the UK’s asylum and returns system.

Gutting week for old Nige.
First Labour put forward a credible immigration policy to reduce number of small boat crossings.
Then on Friday his bestie gets sentenced for taking bribes from Russia.
All that’s left is who bought his house??

I’ll be honest I can’t abide any of the ‘leading’ political journalists. Not one stands up as someone with integrity and impartiality. The ones we see daily and on Sundays look bought and paid for and it’s obvious they’re on a mission. 🤮🤮

I cannot fathom how any one person would prefer Farage and his incompetents over Starmer and his very competent government.
They have met, or are on course to meet, 58 of their Manifesto commitments.
And they’re only 16 months into their term.

I am beyond pleased that Labour have committed to this. I’d like to see animal testing wiped out in UK/world. But:
- £75million funding to develop non-animal testing
- End of animal testing for skin & eye products within 14months
- Drug testing on dogs & primates much reduced by 2030.

So this is interesting from Robert Peston.
The claims of people inside No 10 briefing the press about the PM fighting for his leadership appear to be wrong.
As I speculated this morning, it appears to have been nothing more but a response to a question from a journalist!

But the damage is done. Time and again we have to dispute the media lies, exaggerations, spin, call it what you will. I don’t understand why it’s so obvious to some of us, but others just fall for it repeatedly. I’m off to the gym to have a break from here :-)

This is the Full Fact status of Labour’s adherence to their Manifesto. This is what they were elected on.
Could this be what everyone hates?
Success by Labour.

I disagree with Polanski on many things. He speaks a good speak. Just like Farage. But it’s easy to say what people want to hear. He’s another Corbyn. Nothing behind the words. Leaving NATO, not going with nuclear and abandoning Trident are not serious policies. Sorry.

I’m continually confounded by the media & people who fall hook, line & sinker for their spin.
Fact:
Changing a person does not change how much money we have, improve markets, reduce interest rates/bills or grow a money tree

Yes. I do. They’re panicking about something. Maybe they know the Budget isn’t as bad as they feared. Maybe they know the welfare crisis is just the move to UC. Or that the tsunami of good stuff is being felt by the public. But they’re rattled for sure.
