Brexit is forever tainted with disinformation, foreign interference, murky vested interests, ugly prejudice, unforgivable costs and now deep unpopularity. If you really cared about our country and wanted to fix its problems, you’d admit this… Good that Burnham is finally doing so…

We’re disrupting the stolen phone trade at every level. With hundreds of arrests and seizures of phones, cash, weapons and illegal e-bikes, we’re determined to keep up the pressure and drive these numbers down further.
Graphic showing mobile phone offences in London were driven down by more than 16,000 last year. Mobile phone theft from the person is 23% lower, while mobile phone robbery is 4% lower.

Tom Harwood here. Desperately shoving his gigantic bunny shaped narrative into a teeny tiny matchbox to offset his cognitive dissonance.
If Labour does well tonight in Holborn
and St Pancras, that may well be an
inverse indicator for how the party would
do across the country in a general
election.


It shows they have pandered to the
Greens, ripped up the moderation
agenda, and adopted Corbynism with
Northern characteristics

Kemi Badenoch wants to exempt the family home from inheritance tax. But that creates a perverse incentive for elderly people to *upsize* to save IHT. That could double the cost of the policy, and push £100bn+ from savings into housing. A 🧵 on bad tax cuts.
