“I left Labour and now am going to do activism by using Twitter to harangue those who have decided to stay and organised. I am very smart and the one true socialist. This is my activism.”
I joined the Labour Party because of Corbyn, but his announcement today is disappointing. This party will do nothing but fracture the left further and leave Reform an even wider door into number 10, and when they inevitably fall apart the Tories will be back…
Would understand the glee if Rayner was at risk of losing her seat to a left wing party or the Greens, but “bye bye Rayner, hello Reform candidate that will obliterate everything we fight for”? You’re morons, and you deserve what you get.
I wonder if people would be more human is we brought back PSAs like this youtu.be/nKDgFCojiT8?si…
This exposes the hypocrisy of a Reform MP: "We need to stop relying on cheap immigrant labour & train up our own" But when they ask for more money.. they are greedy. Their anti-Immigration is used to lower worker protection, lower salaries and have you working worse jobs
So junior doctors striking again 😰 Want ever more pay, after 22% pay rise last year Where are the productivity improvements in NHS working practices? Where is recognition for most generous pension arrangements? telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/07/0…

So 4 things we learned about #Farage this week : Highest paid MP thanks to his 11 jobs outside Parliament; Receives the highest value of gifts. Among the worst attendees in the Commons. Barely in his 'constituency'. A conman, grifter, fraudster. In it for him, not for you.
Remember when the collective media was incandescent with rage for weeks about a pair of glasses gifted to Keir Starmer? Yet, total silence for the media regarding Nigel Farage accepting an obscene amount of gifts. You are being gaslit. Wake-up!
But Keir Starmer accepted a pair of glasses.
‘Why must cabinet ministers be politicians? It's nonsense.' @Nigel_Farage’s take on a new-look cabinet for Britain involves emulating America.
