There is absolutely no way anyone in the UK could possibly know where the UK sits in Europe economically by listening to political conversation, experiencing public services or measuring overall quality of life. Ours is a wealthy country that looks and feels nothing like one.
“Mandelson is a very intelligent man” and an “enormously talented bloke,”
“I’ll work with him in Washington”.

That a Labour government is held to a far higher standard than a Tory one is as disgraceful in 2026 as it was in 1924.
NEW: Richard Tice failed to pay almost £100,000 in corporation tax, benefiting his investment company which made large donations to Reform UK.
First time Reform's deputy leader's tax affairs can be directly linked to finances of Nigel Farage's party.
This is why Russia is still fighting, why the war continues and why people are dying: Because Trump and Vance encouraged Putin to believe he could win
Yes is winning on 58%
Mail is running a poll on whether the UK should rejoin the EU.
Takes seconds to vote and it's going hilariously well...

Lies machine Farage now pretending he’s powerless over his own Reform lot—after they flogged fairy tales about cutting council tax. Suddenly it’s “not North Korea” when he’s caught out. Can’t control his candidates, can’t tell the truth. Weak, slippery, and utterly untrustworthy.
Peter Magyar has offered a template which can be used, without too much alteration, in defeating populists worldwide

This morning, 500 more Best Start free breakfast clubs are opening their doors, making nutritious meals available to over 140,000 children and savings of £450 available to their parents.
We’re stepping in to make families’ mornings that bit easier, because Labour is on your side.
The loud aggressive litigant pulls the case and pays indemnity costs to the other party, and enters into a compromise which leaves the other party far better off than before the case was brought.
Bullying and boasting, but based on blundering and bombast.
There are parts of the left absolutely desperate for the UK to be complicit in war crimes so they can attack Starmer and the government. Twisted fucks.
The certainty with which people entirely ignorant of these crucial & irrefutable facts expound their views is terrifying. And, sadly, this particular problem comes largely from the left. The right is telling a different bunch of lies.
🎶Stuck in the middle with you🎶
“Wasn’t it fantastic seeing Zack Polanski dancing and performing on the stage at the weekend during the protest against the far right”?
Funny
The last time I saw him performing on stage was when he was celebrating the Lib Dem conference during the coalition years with the austerity led Tories?
Screenshot of a Times article covering McMurdock’s past.
Reform UK said I was 'bullying' when I pointed out their colleague was jailed for beating up his former partner.
Now, they're trying to sneak him back into their party. So I'll say it again:
James McMurdock was jailed for beating up his former partner.

Badenoch & 4 family members spent 6 days at a residence owned by Neil Record, who chairs Net Zero Watch, is life vice-president of the Institute of Economic Affairs, and sits on the advisory board of the Prosperity Institute, a think tank founded by the Legatum Group, the firm that co-owns GB News.
This is not advocating for Net Zero ...
This deserves two sirens - 🚨🚨
- From today Britons living abroad will only be able to give £100,000 a year to political parties.
- Crypto political donations ban coming into force today will cover even very small gifts

Christian Nationalism is a divisive dead end.
Most people in Britain aren’t Christian in beliefs, practices, or identity.
The only basis for national identity in our country is shared values and institutions of our plural society.

Really smart stuff from @liambyrnemp.bsky.social in the FT today. As Trump has shown, nationalist populism is a money spinner. No wonder it is financed by immensely wealthy, entirely unaccountable speculators ...
Nigel Farage took £585,000 from GB News. His MPs declared another £770,000. Four billionaires have spent £170M building the media machine putting Reform in your living room every night. Today the Guardian exposed them and what they expect in return. This is a political project funded from the top.
From Tory HQ to the Daily Mail to Tufton Street, the myriad creeps & cretins who created the ecosystem in which this could happen still claim to be patriotic. And Boris Johnson fluffers still dominate all three places.
US Treasury Sec Scott Bessent’s decision to lift sanctions on Iranian oil at sea shows just how badly Trump’s war has failed.
Iran will get $14 billion from the deal, the first time the US is buying Iranian oil since 1996.
Trump’s Omnishambles: lives lost, billions wasted, now he’s paying Iran.
Let me introduce you to Farage’s candidate for the Scottish Parliament.
Labour needs to legislate fast to keep this kind of money out of UK politics.
If not, Farage will buy himself a fascist state.
Nick Timothy is an uncannily perfect encapsulation of the crapification of public life in the UK: a bigoted failure blithely oozing from one disaster to the next while being rewarded at every turn by the far right media/political ecosystem. A golf club boor with the intellect of a burst balloon.
Well this took a turn www.theguardian.com/uk-news/ng-i...
‘Best case scenario’ here is that a man with realistic ambitions to be Prime Minister will record himself endorsing your support of base anti-semitism in return for £76.
Remember who the Trump fans are here in the UK. The developments in the US are terrifying.
"US democracy is now back at the worst recorded level since 1965, when US civil rights laws first introduced de facto universal suffrage. All progress made since then has been erased."
There's a special place reserved in Hell for hacks and apologists who attempt to explain the verbal dribblings of Donald Trump.
Trump is insane and dangerous. It's that simple. Call it out.
