Andrew Neil and Matt Goodwin gasping at the size of national debt should remember how we got there. National debt reached £2.7 trillion at the end of period 2019 to 2024, the biggest debt of any parliament since World War II. Interest, not just spending, is increasing the deficit

It might be a novel idea, but I'm hoping people will focus on policies rather than rhetoric before deciding who to vote for. I put a lot of faith, based on my interactions with16 and 17 years, that it might just catch on. 🙏

Now, why would Reform UK & GB News continually mislead people about the type of accommodation asylum seekers are housed in, what they are entitled to, levels of crime they commit, and where they live? The exact same crowd who convinced many that Brexit would solve all problems 🤔

Social media posts claiming that 900,000 people cancelled the BBC licence fee in a year are incorrect. The latest figures show the number of TV licences actually fell by around 300,000 between March 2024 and March 2025. fullfact.org/culture-and-so…

According to the New Statesman, “Richard Holden, the former party chairman, told a recent private dinner, according to one witness, that the shadow cabinet was full of non-entities.”

We need to talk about Nigel He really is the agitating maggot in the apple. 'Essex Police formed a 'foot cordon' around those walking to the hotel to keep the group safe Police vans drove individuals away from the area when their safety was at risk, not to the area Apology please

Busiest travel weekend of the year: Friday 25 to Sunday 27 July. Air: Air-traffic control delays likely, with Scotland hit by airspace closures due to President Trump's visit. Road: Friday to 7pm, Saturday 10am-5pm and Sunday 11am-6pm worst. Good luck all. independent.co.uk/travel/news-an…

Care Homes were put under 'intense pressure' to 'make their contribution' by admitting covid-positive patients from the NHS. Important evidence today at @covidinquiryuk from Cathie Williams on behalf of the Association of Directors of Adult Social Services.

No plan, no policies, and a council in chaos. Three months in, it's clear Reform are failing Warwickshire.

If, as populists claim, the solutions to all our problems are easy, then you have to ask why all our problems weren't solved, after 14 years, by the previous conservative government.

It can't have escaped many that previously Brexit/EU were to blame for all our woes Turned out not to be true. Now its immigration. Perhaps previous government policies and years of neglect are to blame? It'll be a hard slog *many detractors* but Labour working to reverse neglect

A political Bermuda triangle? One year in and Labour are working hard to address a damaging 14 year legacy left by previous Tory government. Reform, now rapidly filling up with MP's from a previous Tory government, are blaming Labour for the problems caused by previous Tory govt.

Thank you to this @UKLabour government for your work on the Infected Blood scandal. Labour is pushing ahead with enhanced compensation. More infected blood victims set to receive compensation under changes to scheme - GOV.UK share.google/dTEclrSx9BpVtT…

Plans for Sunday; confirmed! 🔒

The UK needs closer ties with Europe. 🇪🇺 "E3 is the relatively new acronym for the cooperation between the UK, Germany and France." "Although France and Germany are already close partners within the EU, the UK has been on the sidelines since Brexit." dw.com/en/chancellor-…

Anyone seriously considering Reform because they are angry perhaps ask them about these: Their policies on The NHS Taxation Education Housing Infrastructure International policies Military Trade Equality opportunities Justice/Rule of law Then compare them with Labours policies

Now why would Reform UK & GB News continually mislead people about the type accommodation asylum seekers are housed in, what they are entitled to, give out their locations, & the levels of crime they commit? The same crowd who convinced many that Brexit would solve the problem 🤔
