“Privatisation was the experiment — and it’s failed. We have water companies pumping sewage into our rivers and charging us extra for the privilege.”

Pochin's comments were just "poorly phrased"?

To be upset at the sight of black and brown people on TV in 2025 is - obviously - racist.

It's the same reaction as Jenrick in Handsworth, or the constant attack on immigrants across the political spectrum.

As Reeves travels to Riyadh to discuss trade, Saudi Arabia is in the middle of an execution spree. The UK must not cosy up to regimes with appalling human rights records.

Trade deals can’t come at the cost of our values; our govt must not prioritise profit over human rights.

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.
