  1. A short and very reasoned piece. Clacton has been let down and people are angry and frustrated. If parties (and government) do not stand up, then many many more communities around the country will go the same way(and I am not *just* referencing poverty and despair).

  2. independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli. This is the most unutterable nonsense, @pennine, @ChrisMayLA6. It seems that no-one in the #LabourParty has learned anything from the farcical #experience of the #Tory years, & are apparently convinced that #Brussels will accept #British #membership of the #SingleMarket on the basis of free movement of goods, services & capital, but not labour. The #Tories were told it was all 4 #freedoms or none of them - why should #Burnham get a different answer?

    “Kemi Badenoch defended the decision to select him as a candidate…”

  4. Ummmm...

    Ex #NeoNazi #JoshuaBonehillPaine selected as #Tory candidate

    "A man who was jailed over his neo-Nazi activism will stand as a Tory candidate in council elections after being offered a 'second chance' by the party."

  5. @ZackPolanski Given the #LibDems are now to the #Left of them, & #Labour spend all their time trying to ape #ReformUK & its #policies, they're definitely hard #Right. The #DWP under Labour are continuing the #Tory #attacks on #disabled people.

  6. Self-parody award due here for #DanielHannan.

    Dan was a #Tory #MEP for 21 years He was so ultra-Thatcherite that he may have exhausted the limits of the genre.

    Now he is a Tory Lord, raging in Saturday's #Telegraph at #CountBinface's alleged unfunniness and at the Count's kebab-pricing policy.

    Yes, Lord Hannan really is debating economics with a bin. 😂🤣

    EDIT: Pidätetty on vapautettu, eikä häntä enää epäillä.

    Kun BBC World kertoi tästä, kerrottiin myös, että #AnnWiddercombe oli #äärikonservatiivi.

    Esim. rikollisia pitäisi edelleen hirttää, vastusti aborttia, oli #ilmastodenialisti ja varma, että joskus vielä löytyy parannuskeino homouteen.

    Niin sakea muia, että sai jopa toryistä fudut ja liittyi #Farage n joukkoihin.

  8. Widdecombe was a nasty, misogynistic, homophobic windbag.
    Despite her sickening "celebrity" efforts she failed to become a "national treasure."
    Her far-right Gospel of Hatred was a poisonous force in British politics. I won't miss her whining bitter voice.

  10. @SecondUniverse As someone with multiple #disabilities who was made to jump through the WCA hoop more times than I can remember now, in spite of qualifying for the highest rate, & longest term, of #ESA, I can tell you I was constantly made to feel like dirt - a lead-swinging #benefit scrounger leaching off the taxpayers. The vile #rhetoric coming out of #Labour AND #Tory #politicians was - & is - utterly inexcusable, as is that from the #media.

  12. How many Home Secretaries (both #Tory and #Labour) knew full well that this monster could not be deported…and yet continued to make promises to the victims that he would?

    The man is clearly still a grave risk to girls and women. He has shown no remorse. The judicial system has failed to rehabilitate him.

    But we continue to see this case through the lens of race and religion.

  13. I vaguely remember the ‘cash for questions’ affair that got Hamilton and Smith removed from Parliament. It stuck me in my relative youth that they had sold themselves pretty cheaply. As seems to have happened here. Get with the program Tories, learn from Trump and his ‘followers’ ability to follow and profit from the market days before fluctuations. Rank amateurs. I might say it would make me ashamed to be British - if I counted myself as such

  15. @ChrisMayLA6 The #deregulation of the #financial #markets on both sides of the #Atlantic led directly to the #global financial #crash of 2007-8, & the #political nostrums of the #Tory #governments from 2010-24 led to reduced real #social #spending & greater #poverty & #inequality here in the #UK, with diminished #average #life #expectancy as a result. These are FACTS - & they favour the #Left!

  16. Ein aktuelles Mimesis-Beispiel zur Politik & Politikwissenschaft zeichnet sich in Großbritannien ab. Hier gingen in den letzten Jahren sowohl Torys wie Labour mit der Rechtsmimesis unter: Sie imitierten die Ziele von Nigel Farage & ReformUK auch nach dem Brexit so lange, bis diese zur stärksten Partei in Kommunalwahlen und Umfragen aufgestiegen war.

    Nun aber gewann mit Andy Burnham ein Links-Mitte-Kandidat eine Nachwahl mit deutlichem Vorsprung auch gegenüber den Rechtsaußen. Die Amtstage des glücklosen Labour-Premierministers Keir Starmer dürften damit gezählt sein & andere demokratische Parteien (wie hoffentlich SPD & Union in Deutschland) könnten sich mimetisch erinnern: Demokratien basieren auf Menschenwürde & Vertrauen gewinnen sie in der Mitte.

    Walk the Talk.

  17. theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/j. Indeed it will - one way or the other. I don't know what's happening in this #country. It certainly isn't "free" - to call it "free" is now nothing but a sick joke, & that's all thanks to the #Tory & #Labour #Parties! They are the sworn #enemies of #freedom! The #UK funds & arms #Israel & its #genocide, & anyone here who dares to #protest about it is called a #terrorist, #arrested & banged up in #jail! #PalestineAction are called #terrorists, & compared adversely (1/2)
