Quite funny that Starmer's allies are waking up to this point now …

Cuts to Winter Fuel… not in the manifesto
Disability benefit cuts… not in there either
Cutting jury trials… also not there
Digital ID… no mention
Raising employers NI… nope
Freezing tax threholds… nah
Contracts with Palantir… no

Had forgotten how disturbing David Lynch’s Eraserhead could be when watching it again earlier this month. Sad & unexpected news of his passing yesterday.

It's now 13 months since our friend, colleague and award-winning #journalist Minnie Chan went missing while on assignment in Beijing. Her children, current and former colleagues and a global community of journalists care only for her welfare and hope she is OK. We will never give up hope.

What a turnaround for typos and grammatical mistakes. After years of being irritants, they are now quaint and charming evidence that the text was written by a human being.

Jonathan Hinder - just catching up with this report. Yes we need bold economic policies which improve the lot of ordinary people. But abandoning our working class base, seeking to hoover up the "woke" progressives is NOT the answer. 

Our party tried that in 2019, and look how that went!

Labour MPs doing Reform tribute acts.

If you find this lacks vision & is totally uninspiring - then there is an alternative.

If you believe that lifting minority communities & working class communities & tackling the climate crisis is the same struggle:

Emma Brockes Guardian column. Headline "Never mind what Rachel Reeves did long ago at the Bank of England: what claims do you make on your CV?"

turns out Rachel Reeves repeatedly lying to the electorate is actually the fault of us, the disgusting british public. We must work harder to meet the expectations of our brave political and journalistic classes who, again, are only lying because we made them

"If a woman doesn't look woman enough to a Republican, they want to be able to inspect your genitals to use a bathroom? It's disgusting.

Everyone should reject it completely... they're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kind, and everyone should reject it. It's gross." - AOC

The ICC’s arrest warrants are long overdue.

The Prime Minister & Foreign Secretary must immediately endorse this decision. That is the bare minimum.

Will the UK government now, finally, honour its international obligations to prevent genocide and end all arms sales to Israel?

In court, the government admitted UK-made F-35 parts risk being used in violations of international law & Israel isn’t committed to complying to international law.

Yet the government has continued arms exports, breaching legal obligations & exposing itself to criminal liability.

We need a completely new approach to local government. Councils are barely staying afloat and making cuts to libraries, youth centres and all sorts of social infrastructure because they struggle to fund social care and SEND provision. Government should directly fund these things.

UK journalists talking about echo chambers when 0.2% of journalists are Black and 2.5% Asian and 51% of the most influential journalists went to private school is a bit of a joke
