So the RW/MSM have had their man, again! Disgusted with the announcement. A thoroughly decent man getting on with the job that he was elected to do by the Labour Party, and then the UK public in a landslide GE victory. And he was succeeding too. So sad and depressing! @mrjamesob.bsky.social

If you step back, it is truly extraordinary that so many people went to such great lengths and broke so many conventions and risked their political careers and the only outcome of all these efforts and risks was appointing a washed-up old spinner to an ambassadorial post

Our politics and media have become viciously obsessed with immigration. Farage has made sure of it. And in that obsession, they’ve all lost sight of the people they target. Fellow human beings trying to live and belong somewhere. Shame on everyone responsible for this daily inhumanity (Letter,Times)
Reform's plan for a benefit clampdown
Sir, Regarding Reform's plan to ban foreigners from claiming benefits ("Farage visas would make it harder to settle in the UK", news, Sep 22;
"Time's Up", leading article, Sep 23), in my small company for the past ten years we have employed, on a yearly average, 32 eastern European people, two of them in senior management positions. They all pay British taxes and have had little or no unexplained absences to date. Sick leave for them is extremely low. As far as I am aware, none of them is claiming benefits for dependants. These diligent people provide compassionate care for their clients, living with them for a few weeks at a time. During the pandemic they were responsible for ensuring zero transmission of the virus to people in their care. I feel utterly ashamed that many of them will be reading about Nigel Farage's plan on their various social media platforms
this morning.

I think this is almost certainly true. We now hail Atlee’s government as a beacon of Labour principles but they only served one term?
Like John McDonnell, I am in my 70s, a lifelong Labour voter, and I have been a member of the party for more than 40 years. I would just note that every Labour government in my lifetime, including the great Attlee government, has been accused of betrayal and abandoning principles, mainly by people who claim to be on the left.
I would also note that, despite the criticisms, it is Labour governments that have delivered almost every social advance and economic improvement in the lives of ordinary British voters over those more than seven decades.

In good news for Labour, the IMF issued a report on the UK yesterday, saying "an economic recovery is underway. Growth is projected at 1.2 percent in 2025 and will gain momentum next year" with the "fiscal plans strike a good balance between supporting growth and safeguarding fiscal sustainability."

On his own social media platform, and without providing any evidence to back up his claims, Elon Musk indicates the skies over America are deeply dangerous for air travelers. And, of course, that his company - quite by chance, you understand - will be filling the breach.

We desperately need housing supply. But we also desperately need interesting, innovative, well built developments and new towns. We need not only to talk about how much we're building, but what and how. When we only talk about the former we just get shoddily built, identikit houses which won't last.
