I think it should be a source of deep embarrassment – and perhaps even shame – that Rishi Sunak has spoken out on this before Andy Burnham has.

I’m just a person on my fucking knees begging the government to use its absolutely massive majority to do something extremely fucking popular: save our democracy.

Fed up with people shirking responsibility by arguing that the UK causes just 1% of emissions? Here are two fantastic analogies from a primary school teacher, Mark in Coventry, who called Sheila Fogerty on @lbc.co.uk - one involving dog poo 😆 Other arguments here: www.nebriefing.org/mp-dialogue

If the state has the capacity to control who uses toilets, then it should have the capacity to attack the agents of hostile foreign powers who are inciting racist riots. And if it doesn't, then it is not fit for purpose.

Everyone on X and elsewhere who called for a violent response should be charged with incitement. Everyone involved in the pogrom should be locked up with exemplary sentences. Govt should make it clear that will be the response in future anywhere else. Enough.

Angry does not cut it. The far right's gleeful radicalisation. The right's failure to police its cordon sanitaire. The government's indulgence and excusing of their extremism. The BBC's decision to still invite Matt Goodwin back. A pox on all of them. Fuck you.

The absolute wild cowardice of anonymous accounts like this attacking someone prepared to stand up. It’s so completely pathetic. This is such an abusive argument. It’s ok to harass him because he wants / deserves it. Just terrible stuff. 😢

I was at the count in Gorton and Denton last night and we all saw Matt Goodwin eat ballot papers. His girlfriend and team begged him to stop but he kept stuffing it into his mouth and making grunting sounds like the Cookie Monster

I don’t want to be too shrill about this but I think the BBC, ITV and Sky have disgraced themselves in their coverage of the anti-refugee protests. A massive failure of judgement. But now we know the next time a progressive protest “isn’t news” that it’s nothing to do with numbers

This weekend thousands of people in the UK stood up against racists and far-right thugs only to have representatives of a nominally leftwing government support, enable and empower the racists. Why do you not hear the worries of those trying to protect minority rights and liberal democracy?

There have already been multiple inquiries and reviews into grooming gangs and child sexual abuse. The results and recommendations have been ignored. This won't show anything different, it will give more oxygen to those claiming it's all about race and immigration though. www.bbc.com/news/article...

In short, Starmer has taken a massive hit among Labour voters, for no gain elsewhere, while boosting Farage's popularity, including doubling his ceiling among Labour voters. I.e., the political scientists were right, Morgan McSweeney was horrendously wrong.
