Sultana is taking this line a lot and I have two worries about it: first, it trivialises a horrifying and serious situation and reduces it to a factional smear, with some infantile pleasure in using the epithet. Cf the 'besties with a nonce' line in the chamber.
Utterly moronic comment.

No wonder Your Party is circling the plughole.

Really proud to be the LGBT+ Trailblazer of the year.

And so proud of the real trailblazers - like my boyfriend - who works in palliative care.

Our NHS workers, our teachers, our cleaners.

The people who keep our country running.

And LGBT+ History month matters. Representation matters.

The high court has ruled the UK government acted unlawfully in order to protect a genocidal state.
The rights of British citizens were taken taken away, thousands arrested, many charged simply for holding a sign.
The labour government behaved like despotic regime so now must correct it's failures

Labour’s claimed a poll from Gorton and Denton shows it’s the only party which can beat Reform UK.

But its bar chart is based on a very small sample size, and experts told us the poll can’t reliably show how support for the main parties compares.

Labour—like the Conservatives before them—are in a crisis of their own making.

It's time for a different kind of politics.

We used to have one of those door knockers. It used to knock itself. My mother stole it from the spooky house we lived in. Years later put it on our front (side) door. It used to rip itself out the wood and continued to knock when you could see no one had walked up to it.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Pressure building on govt to come clean about Mandelson's role in bringing US spy-tech firm Palantir into the heart of our NHS.

The fingerprints of Mandelson and his lobbying firm are all over these deals.

Questions about Mandelson, his heinous crimes and how much Starmer knew.

Dan Norris, elected as Lab MP, arrested - 2 counts of rape.

A viral image which supposedly shows Nigel Farage visiting a child with terminal cancer in hospital isn’t real.

It’s based on a real picture of a boy with cancer, which has then been edited with the help of AI to include the Reform UK leader.

So an odd thing here is that if you say "an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume" your point is to communicate "it is not really Batman" but the problem is that the real Batman, within the fiction of the comic book "Batman", is also, literally, an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume
An unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume angrily confronted Santa Clara city officials during a joint meeting of the City Council, city authorities, and the Santa Clara Stadium Authority on Monday, using his public comment to condemn the city’s stance on cooperation with ICE.

So embarrassing to see Angeliki Stogia trying to piggyback the Green Party's approach and language for the Gorton & Denton election. The Labour Party doesn't stand for unity or hope, and hasn't since Keir Starmer took over.
