900 doctors plead with David Lammy over hunger strikers
What kind of justice secretary is David Lammy if he won't listen to 900 doctors pleading for him to focus on the hunger strikers?

By all means investigate Farage for alleged fraud in Clacton, but why was Labour Together allowed to get away with not declaring donations for years?

Distance:
The closest point between Venezuela & USA is 1,073 miles.
That’s over 1000 miles of open ocean.
Fishing boats:
A typical fishing boat would need 6–12 full tanks of fuel to even attempt that trip.
It’s not a realistic trafficking route - it’s not even physically practical.

Medics and clinicians experience so much racism because nothing humbles a bigot more than reliance. The dependency embarasses them. And they would rather double down than admit to having deranged opinions. Even if it's too their detriment! Completely ridiculous

Came across a cooked centrist who called Zack Polanski standing up to Starmer "infighting". Two options here...if he thinks the Greens opposing Labour is infighting he's wrong coz they're two different parties. If he thinks it's the LEFT infighting, well, Labour hasn't been the left for years now.

The predictable knee jerk incompetence of this government. Instead of addressing the material problems in people lives they scapegoat immigration and make the material problems worse. 50k nurse could quit the UK!

Think this is going to push a lot, if not most, of voters to the Greens. The right wing appeasement rather than practical improvements show Labour are not a party of serious government. Party before country.

Feel confident in backing the Greens, more moral and genuine with practical solutions.
A Government of cowards.

Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution.

They can't get away with this.

The alienation of young people can be blamed on Covid, phones and much else. But those are exacerbations. The real cause is rent exploitation in all its forms. It is neoliberalism that is destroying the lives of young people. And that is why it has to go. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/11...

Wes Streeting has received £225k from private healthcare donors in the past year and I just don't think my morals could be bought for the price of half a London flat. I don't know if I have a number that would make me sell my country's health service down the river but Wes and I are different.

This is Jacob Rees-Mogg's wife's ancestral home. In 2016, we gave them £7.6 million to renovate it. Rees-Mogg described the decision as "excellent." Last year, they got an extra £5.1 million to do up the stables.

If you're not angry, you must be a Rees-Mogg...

Good idea from Rachel Reeves…why not, energy is not a luxury. We need to make VAT more progressive actually. We have an official definition of energy poverty. In contrast there is no such thing as flying poverty - because it is a luxury.
