Is Labour about to paint England red? I would rather poke my eyes out with a sharp stick than vote Tory, says York voter. Personally Iโ€™d rather have all my teeth extracted with a rusty pair or pliers than vote Tory. Whatโ€™s your โ€˜I would ratherโ€™, folks? theguardian.com/politics/2024/โ€ฆ

Mark Carney laid it out articulately astutely eruditely in no uncertain terms.

Hr concluded in his speech last Monday that Brexitโ€™s been an absolute disaster for the UK and he is so right.

The politicians that foisted Brexit on the UK should be in jail for what theyโ€™ve done.

I see the UK government has, under pressure finally had to reveal the cost of sending a refugee to Rwanda. ยฃ1.8 million per person. For that same cost of ONE individual an entire refugee processing centre could be built and staffed in France solving the boats problem overnight.

Suella Braverman has claimed that the Conservatives can win the next election if they can just trade a 100 migrants with Rwanda.

Like if this is ridiculous.
RT if it is the stupidest thing you have ever heard.

Rishi Sunak told Beth Rigby 'That's not what the Public wants.' When asked about a General Election.

Like if you want a General Election
RT if you really want one.

Liar Rishi Sunak has to go.

Do you know how petty .Boris Johnson is?

He tried to veto Mary Beard as a British Museum Trustee.

MARY BEARD! A most distinguished Romanist!

She once beat him in a 'Greece v Rome' debate, but his excuse was she liked pro-EU tweets.

In a way what is interesting is that ex Tory Chancellors with no training in economics and who should have borrowed and invested cheaply in the years 2010-2020 at all actually think anyone cares about what they say. The reality is that it is their fault the economy is screwed

It is without a doubt that Keir Starmer is the most honest, decent, & intelligent MP we have ever had in Parliament. He is the greatest Labour leader in history & will serve as the best Prime Minister the UK has ever had.
Keir Starmer will be our Prime Minister. Goodbye Rishi ๐Ÿ‘‹

How dirty Boat Race has captured worldโ€™s attention. This what you get when you privatise a free good in a non competitive market. And now, 35 years after water privatisation, Britain can only be described in one short, honest word: shit. Thank you Tories. theguardian.com/sport/2024/marโ€ฆ

Brexit is a form of national madness โ€ฆ it was bad enough to do it. But to pretend it was still worth it, or can be adapted for success, amid all we already know, suggests politics has broadly taken leave of its senses.

I don't have any sympathy for the Tories being wiped out at the next election

But they still have months left to transfer public assets to their mates at fire sale prices

Make no mistake, these freeports and special economic zones are set-up to do precisely that

Rob the nation

Sorry, but even after all this time, I still cannot believe the narrow-minded idiots in this country voted to remove our Freedom of Movement in that ridiculous referendum.
Their selfishness still astounds me.
Did they never think about the young people of this currentlyโ€ฆ
