It’s almost like if they really want to, they could do something about it at any time.

The opposition just doing and saying the opposite of what the government is doing purely for the sake of being contradictory has a very limited shelf life. Says a lot about how far the #Conservative party has fallen intellectually that they think this is somehow a winner. #ToryPartyConference

Burnham speech: An astonishing moment of radicalism and commitment
It’s easy to be cynical, but it would be false. Something extraordinary is happening here.

For how worried Zac is about becoming irrelevant, Andy Burnham and Labour must finally be on to something.

#Labour are treading carefully, and rightly so, but we’re rejoining the EU, lads and lasses. Great news. #RejoinEU

Write down the date. If #Labour and #Burnham play this right, we could be on to a winner here, Britain….

Yeah. So that was the best conference I have ever seen. I never dreamed I would see a prime minister with the bravery to do what he just did.

#EdMiliband going as far as any #ForeignSecretary on #Europe since goodness knows when. We really should check with the Europeans whether they have some sort of union we could join… #LabourConference

This is sadly indicative of current UK political media, where shills like #Kuenssberg are so obsessed by capturing a gotcha moment in an interview that they lose sight of everything else. #LabourConference2026

Lots of talk of growth ahead of the Budget, as if it were a baroque puzzle. Our problem is basic. It's that we no longer support the things which facilitate growth: Europe, immigration, higher education, tax simplification, policy stability. These are all choices and could stop making them anytime.

Imagine Labour were in opposition and two very senior shadow cabinet members, seen as leadership rivals to the leader, had resigned within days of each other. Think how that would be reported - the tone, frequency, and prominence. Now tell me the media landscape is not skewed in this country.

Apparently £5million can’t buy you enough security to protect you from an imaginary threat.

And now the investigation into the £5 million secretly-gifted by an ‘economic migrant’ recommences. If nothing else has been achieved with this daft by-election, the idea that Farage is some sort of master strategist has been put to bed. It’s easy to look good when you’re getting free passes galore.

If these numbers are accurate, this goes down as a bad negotiation by whoever was on the #NUFC side of the table.

It’s about time the media broke this bogus link between oil profiteering and wars in the Middle East. Maybe then governments might have to act.

This isn’t coincidence, #Burnham & #Labour has wrestled back control of the narrative and pushed the wailing about boats down the agenda where it belongs. Getting on with things that actually improve people’s lives, hence why the usual suspects can’t handle it - the last thing they want.

Regardless of your thoughts on #EddieHowe, serious question marks prevail over the running of #NUFC Every time the club is faced with a major strategic issue, it seems like they fumble the process.
