Apparently I should shut up & watch in silence as Starmer et al destroy civil liberties, criminalise grandmas, increase inequalities, scrap jury trials, support genocide, vilify migrants, refer to people like me as fleas, & hand the UK on a plate to Farage. So is that how democracy works now?
Quit the denigrating and have some respect and support for this hardworking,diligent government who's been delivering from day one and getting so much done at pace.
As it's said 'Rome wasn't built in a day' and it's only 18mths in to a 5yr term.

This is precisely why I started this petition. Lobbyists and spending like to remain hidden and buying media and stories is cheaper and more direct than politicians...

Disclosure of spending, particularly social/new media, is the real key I suspect.

There's a one hour special on Nigel Farage and Reform UK, and whether they are ready to lead, on BBC2

Presumably, there will be a similar one hour special on Zack Polanski, and whether The Greens are ready to lead, as well?

Remember when the Panama papers came out and it showed that the super rich were taking us all for mugs and senior politicians were all in on it and absolutely nothing changed or was done about it?

Lets not let that happen again.

For years, Starmer's critics on the left have warned that he was trashing Labour values, kowtowing to the rich and powerful while hurting the poor and the living world.
Every time, people here and elsewhere leapt up to call us "closet Tories" and "Reform enablers".
Funny how they've gone so quiet.

This verdict leaves Labour’s anti-protest laws in tatters.

Labour has tried to tell us that Palestine Action is a terrorist group & should be considered alongside groups like ISIS & Al Qaeda. But this jury verdict of not guilty makes a mockery of this.

Starmer is going to be the fall guy for this (& lots more), but everyone at the top of Labour is implicated, including people who might have resigned in the meantime!

Steve Reed says the govt takes violence against women and girls seriously.

So seriously, in fact, that they appointed someone to a top job knowing he'd stayed at the house of a convicted paedophile.

"Is Morgan McSweeney safe in his job?"

Steve Reed: "Yes of course he is"

Reed is a long time political ally of both Mandelson & McSweeney, and all three of them worked together in wrecking, smearing & lying to regain control of the Labour Party.

Steve Reed continues to pretend that Starmer & the govt didn't know anything about Mandelson when they appointed him ambassador & when they did find out he was sacked.

Sophy Ridge knows he's lying. The viewers know he's lying. Even he knows he's lying.

Laura Kuenssberg starts her 'Reform: Ready to Rule?' by saying that via the polls "the public are now showing us who they want to see in power" - i.e. Reform.

Completely & obviously untrue.

Reform has been polling around 25%.

So 75% do NOT want to see Reform in power.

A new report indicates that zero net migration would shrink the UK economy by 3.6% and likely force an increase in taxes, as well as being cruel, inhuman and impractical.

Migration is good for our country. Inequality is the problem. Tax the super-rich.

If Mandelson is being investigated for his Epstein connections, he must also be investigated for his Thiel connections, because they ran a joint fund when Mandelson fixed Starmer's visit to Palantir

Under my leadership of the Labour Party, Peter Mandelson had no role, no influence and no part to play, because I do not trust the man and I do not believe the man.
