@tdubsniper @LangmanVince Sorry aren’t you the country who is randomly starting war without a clear plan nor communication to allies but expect said allies to do whatever you ask…..do go away
English
@LangmanVince We didn't vote for him to be appropriate. We didn't vote for him to be presidential. We voted for someone who would stopped taking shit from the rest of the world. Stop allowing other countries to treat us like a door mat. Sorry that the truth hurts your feelings. I love it.

Emmanuel Macron said that President Trump's remarks that his wife beats him were "inappropriate."
They look pretty appropriate and accurate to me!
English
@LangmanVince Not appropriate if you wish to build good relations, and frankly if you don’t then just shut up … either way no need, purile bullshit from Trump

@DawnButlerBrent Big job to do given the achievements todays in the opposite direction by your party

🚨 BIG NEWS 🚨
I'm delighted to announce I have been appointed as Minister for Hope and Positivity in the Cabinet Office.
I'll soon be putting forward new rules to ensure people stay kind online.
Full statement below.👇🏾

@DavidMcGregorBN Handouts that don’t help the real economy, tax rises that stop the economy , increased unemployment that increases cost of benefits ….it’s a doom loop
English
@bmay Except starmer won’t be head of the Labour Party by then, he will have been replaced by people who make the opposition look quite reasonable
English
Starmer will win the next election. Not because he’s loved. Not because he’s a visionary. Not because he’s Labour.
But because he is, in the end, a calm head, whose two main challengers are patently unserious ideologues, who show themselves daily to be unsuitable for the role.

@UKLabour Aren’t labour just clearing up the unemployment issues they created by hiking up NI ? We see you
English
This Labour Government is cleaning up the mess the Conservatives left and is getting young people back into jobs and apprenticeships.

@KarlTurnerMP @AngelaRayner @UKLabour Which is exactly why you’ll be voted out next time you sanctimonious dullard
English
They can throw as much BS at @AngelaRayner as they like. It won’t tarnish her standing in @UKLabour. Angie is very well regarded both in Parliament and outside amongst our membership.

EXCLUSIVE from @breeallegretti Labour covered the cost of a specialist tax lawyer hired to look into Angela Rayner’s finances in the lead-up to her resignation as deputy prime minister last year Jonathan Peacock KC, a leading barrister, spent up to five days examining her finances relating to the purchase of her £700,000 flat in Hove The costs, which experts said would rune into tens of thousands of pounds, were paid for by Labour HQ Some in Labour argue this is a poor use of funds given the state of the party's finances. But the attacks are also a sign that critics of Rayner are seeking to tarnish her reputation in anticipation of a possible leadership challenge in May... thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…

@Heccles94 How did he avoid - that’s the key. Was it within the rules (if you don’t like that change the rules) or did he break the rules like Ang
English
Richard Tice said that Angela Raynor should resign over £40,000 of stamp duty.
Today it is revealed that the same man has avoided £600,000 of corporation tax.
Should he resign? Or is it one rule for posh blokes and another for working class women?
English
Here we go, another party willing to make unfinanced promises to get into power….£30k worth of childcare , to help people get back into work where the jobs don’t exist
English
@BethRigby It’s not the process that’s at issue, it’s the fact that the pm showed poor judgement in the face of clear evidence provided…that’s the issue. And if even Mandy lied later on, it dies t remove the issue of starmers poor judgement given what he did know
English
NEW: I asked PM directly on whether he had misled the House when he said due process had been followed regarding Mandelson’s appointment. ‘No’ He says it’s clear the process isn’t robust enough & says again it was ‘my mistake’ and I apologise for that
English
@UKLabour Political posturing as usual with no real plan at all to stop the misery that will be impacted on all people by another inflation spiral…..charlatan
English
This Labour Government will not tolerate fuel companies profiteering and hardworking people losing out.

English
@BBCScotlandNews What’s interesting is that the King has shown the will to remove honour’s where people act inappropriately (I’m no royalist btw) yet politicians who are the ones controlling House of Lords show no desire to act likewise (Mone, Mandelson, there’s more …)

@DeborahMeaden Starmer on international stage is same as at home, keen to be seen and involved, usually saying how much he cares or feels but actually being totally ineffective. Just wants people to see him as the leader he imagines he is
English
I am deeply relieved we have a cautious, pragmatic PM in office in these tumultuous times and I think it dangerous and ridiculous to expect him to do anything other than monitor an evolving situation before making a move that could , indeed would put British lives in the line of fire. Can we just let him do his job please…

@UKLabour @darrenpjones Well that doesn’t read so well 24 hrs later does it ……
English
The choice in Gorton and Denton is as simple as this:
Unity - with a Labour MP who will get things done.
Or division - with a Reform candidate who has proven time and time again that he isn’t fit to stand up for this community.

@YvetteCooperMP Less appalled by the cover up on grooming gangs in uk…..we see you
English
I’m appalled by continuing restrictions imposed on women and girls in Afghanistan.
The Taliban’s new criminal procedure code legitimises domestic violence and targets women and minorities.
These oppressive measures must be rescinded. The rights of all Afghans must be protected.
English
@Ed_Miliband Why would fracking cause energy bills to soar …,..given the huge costs you’ve embedded on clean energy I’m guessing not
English
Energy bills are coming down because this Labour Government’s number one priority is to tackle Britain’s affordability crisis.
Meanwhile, Reform would cause bills to soar with their plans to reject clean homegrown power and frack the countryside.

@darrenpjones Disingenuous- you don’t have to do either, you don’t have to choose one ….but that’s how you justify more benefits in your world of hand outs #antiaspiration
English
I just voted to lift the two-child cap - a policy introduced by the Tories which punishes children who were born into a poor family.
Nigel Farage wants to keep it and instead give tax breaks to foreign billionaires. I know whose side I'm on.
