TBF it is very easy to have a perceived backbone in opposition.
A little more nuanced and complex if you are in government.

Am still baffled about this being the third lead item on BBC News website. Who cares? Why is this 'news'. It's just gossip and tittle-tattle.

This 'journalist' is a BBC front man for Radio4Today. It really is ridiculous that he can write this nonsense and face no consequences - not even a hint of derrision or embarrassment for such utter tosh.

Twiggy came to view the house next door. I was out! She didn't buy!

I found this totally absorbing. I disagree with Gove about absolutely everything. I find him duplicitous, dishonest and opportunistic - but I still enjoyed it!

PM Starmer has got this badly wrong. I do not want any govt interfering in decisions made by local professionals whose remit is to keep communities safe. No 10 has mismanaged this. It is not who the fans are, but how they behave.

I couldn't agree more. A complete non-story. What is LK doing? Try and be better...please.

This man promoted Nigel Garage only a few weeks ago. "We should give him a chance" apparently. Why not? Well, one reason - he is a Trump fanboy. Rod S needs to sort himself out or stop spouting nonsense.

On and on it goes. Ignorant politicians applying private sector models to government (local and national) - causing chaos and expense and not solving anything.

I don't want women's football to copy men. I find it depressing that the Italian women want just that. Their antics and dishonest behaviour is not what I want to see in the women's game. I am glad their shameful tactics did not work.

Appeasing Conservative and Reform voters by “being tough on scroungers” will not win admiration, they will simply bank the win and shift the goalposts again. Meanwhile, Labour’s core supporters - those who believe in dignity, fairness, and solidarity - will feel abandoned.
