Great to welcome Angela Rayner MP to Tottenham Hale today to see our award-winning council homes in action. Haringey Labour is delivering the next generation of high-quality council homes for our community, building a fairer future for all 🌹
I find it absolutely befitting and poetic that Emily Thornberry should preside over the questions over this mess, given her shadow job was taken and given to one of Starmer’s mates. Revenge is a dish best served over a Select Committee
I have no doubt that part of the narrative from Labour organisers on May 8th will be that some of us didn’t knock on enough doors or deliver enough leaflets. This is bollox - if we want to save our party we’ve got to address the reasons we are alienating our core voters, not just badger them.
Journalists gotta stir!
Who’s ‘she’? Who are you? Is some third party being both intrusive and condescending, and managing to get the wrong end of the stick?
BYW: I see what may have occurred there. ‘Frustrating’ was aimed at folk who criticise while declaring that they haven’t condescended to view the source.
Was abroad last week. Don’t get to hear every session, but presumably I can get the recording as is often the case.
Frustrating! Oh well, I regularly attend the IfG’s excellent online policy briefings, so will search for it there.
Might you mean the political commentariat and chatterati?
It’s a case of ‘never judge a book by its followers’!
Why don’t you just write about the employment scheme? Following the pack or being a proper journo?
Graphic card with text: "As the state has turned to the communicative capacity of penal power because it has lost the ability to cohere political order and define the benefits of citizenship through other means. To understand the Detention Reengineering Initiative, we must understand how our authoritarian present is a product of failed attempts to manage political crises through crimmigration in the past."
As ICE vastly expands its detention portfolio, analytical responses must consider the history of failed crimmigration, so as to reorient towards a different future. Read the latest blog post by @hallamtuck.bsky.social 👇

New, from me: Take the Palantir manifesto seriously, if not literally.
It reveals that our tech philosopher kings want public money, but without public accountability. This creates a dilemma for governments unaligned with its techno-fascist vision. 🧵

I predict a huge AI crash with everyone except Big Tech Swinging Gonads having to suffer & clear up the roadkill.
This man is cartoonishly evil but there are many more like him are more subtly but no less exploitative in their greed. And the state is allowing them to get away with it. www.thejournal.ie/clare-street...
The far right is embracing crypto so it has the lost the pro £ argument.
The € is great for the public finances.
Currently Greece and Italy borrow at much lower rates than Britain.
And should Britain use German rates, it would save 60 billion per year!!!
Israel has effectively annexed Southern Lebanon
as part of the Greater Israel ethnic cleansing strategy,
which includes all of Palestine, Lebanon & Jordan,
and parts of Syria, Iraq, Egypt, Saudi Arabia & Turkey

Save Beirut, protect Lebanon, cease the violent occupation that is destroying the people of Lebanon. No second genocide.

JD Vance: ‘Pope has no right to pontificate!’ 👼
JD speaks Ex-Cathedra.
Totally depressed after watching news tonight. The amplified panic over defence; the siege mentality; the free pass to arguments that ‘welfare’ should be ‘slashed to pay for defence’; economic panic; US idiocy unchecked. It’s as if everything is regressing. I’m done with the #BBC.
We have too much welfare and not enough bombs and warships. Let low paid people, the disabled, ill, and pensioners fork up for more arms. @bbcnews-world-rss.bsky.social amplifies this demand without any critical context. Appalling.
Bye, bye!
Americans, this person is in charge of your money.
More of this: stick him on Newsnight, on BBC Sunday show(but with Victoria Derbyshire interviewing): Sky and any half decent political journalist - not Mason or Kuennsberg. Ask the question and let him condescend, wriggle and get flustered.
Worse still, the BMJ is hugely concerned about reliance on one company. Commissioning on this country is criminal. Haul the NHS managers promoting Palantir in front of the Public Accounts Committee
