I stand with Kier Starmer and @teamlabouruk.bsky.social and any thoughts of changing leader plays straight into Farage's hands. The louder certain elements call for him to go, the more you know the right wing is worried that he is on the right path.
BREAKING: Gordon Brown defends Keir Starmer
"I can look in his eyes and see he is a man of integrity.
"He wants to do the right things. Perhaps he has been too slow to do the right things. But he must do the right things now.
"Lets judge what he does"

EXACTLY. This is the question that UK journalists *should* be asking.
"If Mandelson's links to Jeffrey Epstein disqualifies him from holding power, why does the company controlled by Epstein's business partner and co-owner retain access to the UK's most sensitive national security infrastructure?"
Peter Thiel. Jeffrey Epstein. Palantir. The UK Government.

Farage used the weakest possible language he thought he could get away with. The man of the people couldn't muster a full throated defence of our armed forces and express the clear outrage the people of the country feel. Why? Because he doesn't really care about the people, only himself!
Farage 'fury' on Trump's comments...
'I would object to that, politely...'
'...not quite fair...'
This is the man the right wing 'patriotic' media are desperate to impose on us as our next PM.

I'm so utterly disgusted and insulted by Trump comments about our soldiers who fought with and gave their lives fighting in support of the US in the NATO response in Afghanistan. I want to believe that he is so uneducated to know otherwise, but I suspect he did it on purpose to drive a nail in NATO

🚨 “Can I tell you how many times in the last 45 years the European Court of Human Rights has ruled against the UK when it comes to deporting people from this country - only 13 times - in 45 years”

Who is surprised? Trump called Putin before his meeting with Zelenskyy, then arranged to meet Putin in Europe after the meeting. Trump continues to undermine Ukrainian interests, allied interests as well as American national security interests. It appears to be “RUSSIA FIRST” with this president.
