Also when you consider Feinstein vote and the fact it’s a by election for a government it’s not a great result.

Taking all those bot farms is a blow to Republican mid terms

You have to remember the numpties who voted for this motion also vote for the leadership and you aren’t telling me the mass of the party is vastly different even though there will be large numbers who think this is vile.

Man who threatens several allies, seems to back the illegal invasion of a sovereign state and uses military supplies to cause outright chaos in the Middle East misses out on the Nobel Peace Prize? Shocked I tell you

Zack was probably right to want Conference cancelled. However I think he probably loses even without that. The problem remains his party passed it. This isn’t a small issue that can be ignored.

I think in lies the issue with this era of RTD. The stories sound not so bad well the first two but we don’t get an idea what the first one is about bar the setting and how he could make it work with budget.

I do think they’ve gone too early on this I expected they would flock back at some point but the Polling hasn’t moved in almost her entire time and this was the unpopular Starmer and Reform dropping back.

The Russians are barbarians and should be treated as such, not as people to negotiate new business deals with to benefit corrupt oligarchs in the US.

You know that if what has happened to McConnell happens to Trump we will see much the same. The Republican Party is in the gutter.

they should study him in a lab. I don’t think I could write this badly on purpose. still, glad this has higher billing than coverage of last night’s far right escalation

Had one of those odd dreams where I date a lead singer from a semi famous indie band. It’s actually recurring but it’s a different singer/guitarist each time.

13 points behind, aligned with several polls and actually one point higher for Labour than the last poll by the same company. They are second but a distant second and Khan will out perform on second preferences. So not a shock at all

None of what he wrote makes sense. He gives all his money away and then claims it’s expensive job.

The 'London has fallen' brigade will be gutted. • 36 million overnight visits to London in 2024 compared to 33.7 million in pre-pandemic 2019 • Domestic tourism up by a third in terms of visitor nights, rising from 28 million in 2019 to 37.3 million in 2024 www.onlondon.co.uk/charles-wrig...
onlondon.co.uk
London is now attracting more visitors than pre-pandemic
City Hall analysis has found that domestic tourism is the main driver of the improvement with other patterns also shifting since 2019

Problem with the terms “British Born” is not solely the idea of restricting it to a person born here, it’s who is deciding who is “British born”, Lowe has already started to stir this racist pot and Reform have come along to join in. We’ve seen it all before as well.

Nigel Farage wants to end "Something for Nothing Britain". Ironic that he is absolutely adamant that the £5m from Harborne was something for nothing.

In fact they never took any left wing action. Their absorption of companies was just to pass to their mates and half of that was related to forced removal from their enemies. Many company owners became very wealthy under Nazism.

Matt Hurst 🏳️‍🌈 @mattythurst.bsky.social · 17/08/2026
The discussion on whether the Nazis were left or right wing is effectively this… Whole load of evidence on who they targeted, what they outlawed and so on. V An addition to a name that was solely done to appeal electorally to the working class. No other action they took was left wing.

The problem with commentators reacting to the Jason Arday tragedy by sternly pointing out "people need to reflect on their own role in this" is that the people who really do need to reflect on their own role in this, never reflect on anything.
