The same here.
Hasn't Starmer resigned yet? With the majority of Labour members in dissaray, no canvassing, no campaigning, signs are the Party has collapsed. MPs are ready to call a leadership challenge. Starmer knows the left will no longer rally round. His new Home Sec's callousness is provoking outrage.

Cruel. Callous. Cowardly.
The public are seeing this Labour government for exactly who they are.
We all have a responsibility to make them pay at the ballot box.
Reject the hate. Reject them.
This is not who we are. Let's make hope normal again.

The BBC clearly victimised refugees tonight in their reporting of immigration policy changes. They are beyond contempt. I propose a boycott of the BBC to stop their Reform partisan reporting.

Grapevine news: Starmer's pandering to the extreme Right is the deathknell of the Labour Party & to his career.
His ripping up of Labour values proved a catastrophically bad move. Back benchers could vote no confidence in him but an imminent leadership challenge is likely to make it unnecessary.

Oh no! Another "I'm a celebrity get me out of here". Animal cruelty in entertainment still legal in Australia, sending several z listers on long haul flights and helicopter drops to eat live animals, & do other cruel tasks, it's time it finished. If you watch it they will keep on making it. Don't.

Why should kids depend on parents tax credits to live? Budgets should not be about capping v cutting. They should provide affordable homes, proper wages, raising living standards, care for the vulnerable. Nutshell: Household UBI. No caps, no cuts. State taking responsibility for all its people.

Labour are getting twitchy about next year's council elections. They are expected to be wiped out. To try and regain the support of large families, it is now expected that Reeves will remove to 2 child cap off Universal Credit and tax credits in the budget on 26th. Gawd help the rest of us.

We need a new law in the UK to criminalise fascism. It's needed in order to protect our human rights, democracy, & public interest. In 2024, Labour promised to clamp down on extremism, but have only proscribed antigenocide groups, not fascist extremists like Reform.
