Some quiet changes that are targeting the wealthy and creating lots of angst in the media. Labour are focused on equality and moving the benefits to ordinary people. What’s not to like?

Nigel Farage says he has never worked in a prison so he is unable to answer a question on prison policy. On that basis he will have no views on health, defence, culture, energy, education, farming, transport, law… or anything other than lying and grifting.

Labour are doing so many great things but of course there is some things even we aren’t happy with however they are rebuilding our country bit by bit.

The problem is the media who are either Tory or Reform supporters so they are always negative about Labour & make up rubbish.

Has anyone tried using the NHS recently??

It's fucking getting better. Why so much negativity everywhere about UK and how Labour is governing it?

Yes, they are doing some stupid things as would any governing party. It doesn't mean that EVERYTHING is terrible and getting worse.

Gotta admire Corbyn's relentless ambition. It's not enough to have played his part in delivering Brexit and Boris Johnson, he wants the accomplishment of a Farage premiership before he's done.

13 positive developments in just one week thanks to our industrious Labour government. From further constraining people smuggling to nuclear power to football. Strong focus on better NHS care and hospices too. Share far and wide because you can bet it’s nowhere in our media

So Mark Carney crumbled and cancelled the digital service tax on the US?

Seems those holding him up as some kind of strongman while citing Keir Starmer as a pussy, crowed too soon?

I celebrate the 80% of Germans who did not vote for the far right. Do not make 19.6% of German voters into "the" German people (again).

"The" German people don't exist! The German population is diverse and divided, but voted overwhelmingly for liberal democratic parties.

It’s like some cleverdick convention. Without the clever part. Monstrously cocky egos messaging each other to get off on how they could break stuff and ruin life for everyone else.

Wasn’t sure how Musk could make himself more disliked in the UK. But a bromance with Cummings could certainly do it.

The Labour govt has been busy in its first 6 months pursuing popular policies - but their communication strategy leaves many to believe they have achieved nothing much.

Stephen McNair sets record straight.

I know some people wanted to see a 'tax' on the gambling industry in budget, but didn't get it.

It looks like Labour had other plans in the works, with a 1% levy on their gross gambling yields set to be introduced to help fund research, education and treatment of gambling harms.

Good move Labour!
