Just listening to Ed on LBC radio, (one off, don’t usually listen to radio), and he’s doing a brilliant job.🤩. Far more humane than Starmer, and speaks a lot of sense, has integrity, cares deeply about Gaza, (unlike Starmer). Would be a much more viable PM than Farage, people should wake up! 😴.

Ed Davey is right to boycott Trump’s state banquet. The suffering in Gaza cannot be ignored. Trump has the leverage to bring peace - and Keir Starmer must urge him to act.

The ruling stems from the harm island nations are suffering as sea level rises, and it opens a door for future claims for reparations. But getting to that point isn’t so simple.

You know how Farage, Lowe and rest of Far Right Wing claim to want to protect women from nasty migrants.. for many of them it’s so they can knock women around and abuse them themselves 👇🏼👇🏼

The lurching horror of our national immigration narrative is on full display today. Even two years ago, I believe almost all media would have framed the victims of the Afghan leak as allies to whom we have a duty of care. In the Mail today, they are ‘migrants’ being ‘smuggled’ in to the country.

Reminder that today Reform UK are defending 2 seats in by-elections.

Benfieldside and Newark West.

Both caused by their councillors standing down after the local elections just days after being elected.

Taxpayers’ money wasted today to the tune of circa £50k.
