I watched Olly Robbins' impressive performance at the Foreign Affairs select committee session today in full and find it hard not to concur that the wrong man has lost his job.

Stuttering, anxious and unconvincing. Raising more questions than he answers. This has to be the end of Starmer as PM - and what a ridiculous hill to die on.

Process shmocess. Employing Mandelson was a blatantly stupid, politically foolish, totally avoidable but sadly predictable error of judgement.
Searchable database that details the voting history and donations made to your local sitting Labour MP (link in comments):

Let's cut the crap? Anyone with an ounce of nous saw this unravelling as soon as Mandelson's appt was made. The issue boils down to cronyism in politics, the old boys network & promoting people who align with your own ambition (blocking those who don't) rather than who would be good at the job.
Homelessness charity Centrepoint cuts ties with Sharon Osbourne after the self-proclaimed patriot who lived in Beverly Hills for 25 years, confirms her plans to attend Tommy Robinson's march.
Kรถszรถnรถm for showing the fascists how itโs doneโค๏ธ๐
Streeting in The Telegraph (natch) has the brass neck to raise the ghosts of Labour's glorious past, whilst taking bungs from private heathcare - Aneurin Bevan would despise him for that alone.
Stunning view of our beautiful, fragile earth from Artemis II. That's us together - all of us ๐
Last night Starmer & Streeting decided to punish you by making it harder for you to see a specialist. The NHS crisis is a political choice; last night they choose not to fix it. Remember this the next time you canโt get an appointment or your surgery is delayed.

Monumentally stupid. Starmer tells resident doctors if they donโt surrender their strike, he will hurt the country by reducing future doctors.

Engine trouble for the Tractor Boys.

Hannah Spencer on career politicians: โ(They do) politics at uni, work for an MP, become an MP...thereโs way too many like that.

The time to launch the local election campaign was July 2024 - in May you will be judged on what you've done since then.

It wasn't as warm as it looks and that banner was much heavier than it looks but what a great day๐๐ช๐

Can we do the same for the angry, middle-aged, right-wing geezers on my timeline?
What about semi-retired, post-menopausal women?
It's a wrap๐. What a pleasure it was to spend time with trade unionists at the @tuc.org.uk North East, Yorkshire & Humber Regional Conference in Durham. Can't wait till next year!
Speaking at @tuc.org.uk North East, Yorkshire & Humber. Telling comrades how disastrous Reform UK have been for residents and workers in Derbyshire and what an absolute embarrasment they have been to the county.

Help the weak against the strong,
Love the old when you are young,
Own a fault when you are wrong,
When youโre angry hold your tongue,
Stand your round and give a song,
Donโt forget where you come from.
