It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

Reading an article about the 25th anniversary of Tate Modern and learned the building was in use as a power station for less than 20 years, from 1962 to 1981 - meaning it's been an art gallery for longer than it was ever a power station.

Tory leader Kemi Badenoch basically stating 9 months isn’t long enough to turn the Tory Party around but constantly tells Starmer Labour should turn around a country crippled by 14 years of a Tory government? 🤷‍♀️

A leading Israeli news site quotes Netanyahu telling his top general, 2 days after Oct 7, to ‘take down houses, bomb with everything you have.’ An admission of war crimes from the horse’s mouth. Let’s see how the hasbarists try spin this. www.ynet.co.il/yedioth/arti...

The Westminster Bridge terror attack was not only an attack on London, but an attack on the values we hold dear. Today as a city we remember the victims, their loved ones and the bravery of the first responders who ran towards danger to protect us. They will never be forgotten.

Its overall share of new car registrations fell to 1 per cent from 1.8 per cent over the same period.

When will Govt learn you can’t out-Reform Reform - you end up simply legitimising their toxic narrative. To see off populists, Labour needs to invest in public services & local communities, making a real difference to people’s lives - levy a wealth tax & use it to improve people’s lives *now*

A President should not be publicly speculating about an accident while the recovery effort is still underway and the investigation has barely begun, when there has been no comment from the NTSB. Expressing grief for the loss and support for the investigation should be the entirety of the comments.

This is correct, especially if you look at past presidencies (including Trump’s first term). Relentless opposition is the only thing that works.

Prof Alexis Jay, chair of public inquiry into child sexual abuse, says further national inquiry into grooming gangs isn’t needed & would delay action. “The time has passed for more inquiries, we’ve had enough… We’ve set out action required & people should just get on with it, nationally & locally”
