Did you know that a Farage Reform govt intends to scrap the NHS? The private health care system he wants to introduce would cost you £10,000s, like the US, where getting ill can bankrupt you. #ReformUK #Labour #GreenParty #Newcastle #SAFC� #NUFC

In proscribing Palestine Action, the Govt argued the group’s actions went beyond criminal damage, constituting a risk to life. Why are Daniel Thomas’ live-streamed actions from yesterday any different? Govt and Police failure to act on this will embolden him and his supporters

I just think that risking your life at a moment's notice to save people you've never met in exchange for no money is a better expression of patriotism than dressing up like a Poundshop paramilitary and intimidating families with kids trying to get onto a ferry.

I for one have had enough of people who can barely speak English, living on benefits, ignoring our laws and wearing weird clothes that cover up their faces. So it was disappointing to see a few hundred of them gathered in Dover today.

And yet on the BBC News app we’re told how Reform will deliver £80bn in savings (by hollowing out the Civil Service, defunding Welfare, overseas aid, and net zero initiatives).

I served for +\- 30 yrs in the British Army. When I left, I had visions of throwing myself into the whole veteran thing. Not now though; those events that I have gone to have been hot beds of racism attended by Reform supporters. Now, I don’t go to anything like this. 1/3

I hope we can wake up tomorrow in the kind of culture that acknowledges they just played really well and held their own for a long time against an excellent team. Instead of abusing them for making it to the semi-finals

Plus points; Djed Spence has been the breakout star of the squad. More to come from Bellingham - he’s been outstanding. Tuchel will learn from this and start to develop tactics that play to Englands strengths and not just how to contain the team we are playing against

Winny 🇬🇧🇺🇦🇬🇱🇨🇦🇲🇽🇵🇸 @winny3001.bsky.social · 15/07/2026
So, I think Tuchel saw that Arg have scored most of their goals in the last 15 and had a game plan to deal with that. He saw it as a bonus that we were a goal up. Not bold enough.

To be serious for a moment, you don't often see a very clear miscalculation by a manger that can really lose a game, but...that was one by Teuchel. You really can't just give a team like...Argentina 20minutes in your half to keep hammering away at your goal. That was a fatal mistake. #WorldCup

So how did we get here, with Starmer on the way out after two years? To some extent, it does go back to the beginning. It was not an enthusiastic victory for Labour. Getting rid of the Tories was the top reason people voted for them in 2024, though with their message of 'Change' also resonating.

OK, so Helen Whately and the Express are doubling down and going all out hysterical at this point...🙄 They've actually "calculated" the state benefits a man with ELEVEN WIVES could claim!! And this time, they've done it behind a paywalled article🤷‍♀️ But don't worry, I got behind it!🤓 🧵1/20
Express Headline:
'Astonishing!' Fury that men with multiple wives are allowed to claim extra estate benefits. 
The Conservatives have vowed to ban husbands with multiple wives from claiming extra welfare benefits, closing a loophole that costs taxpayers thousands.

Well, that Express headline was always going to raise a few eyebrows!😳 Starmer is responsible for embracing polygamy to appease Muslims, and so he's increasing their benefits?? That's the implication. After all, this "started in April", right? Wrong! 🧵1/25

DWP increases benefits for husbands with 2 or more wives - Started in April
