Reform’s immigration plan falls apart on hard contact with evidence, economics and any form of engaged brain. Never be afraid to stand up for this country and its decency and future by giving them short shrift.

Our conversation over the last couple of days suggests a complete moral breakdown, at a national scale. Instead of sympathising with far-right protests, politicians should be fucking challenging them.

Mike Johnson: "God miraculously saved the president's life -- I think it's undeniable -- and he did it for an obvious purpose. His presidency and his life are the fruits of divine providence. He points that out all the time and he's right to do so."

This is staggering.
Real wages have grown more in the first 10 months of this Labour government than during the first ten years of Tory governments since 2010.
And not one apology from Conservative MPs for the mess they left us in today - shameful.
